Brandon Marshall decided that a Twitter troll had gone a bit too far when he started insulting his mother, and called him out on it.
Wide receiver for the Chicago Bears Brandon Marshall, like any professional sports person, undoubtedly gets trolled all day every day, but when one fan decided to have a go at his mother, he thought he'd respond because they'd crossed a line. There's a little bit of NSFW language in here, so consider yourself warned.
@AnthonyGKalla: @BMarshall idk if you saw this on ig but here's a reminder pic.twitter.com/GYT7hj3mWe I give you 5k to get in a ring with me.

That was enough for Marshall to decided that he wasn't going to take any more from this particular troll and offered him the chance to back up his tough words in the ring, with some money thrown in for good measure.
After he didn't receive a response, he tried to sweeten the deal a bit by throwing in another few grand.
@AnthonyGKalla If I lose I'll give you another 10k. If I win you have to serve a 100 hours at an orphanage. Deal?

Recognising his chance to actually get some recognition for his pathetic trolling, Anthony Galla attempted to see how far he could push it, and Brandon duly upped the offer again to a whopping $25,000. As a professional athlete, he's probably pretty confident that he'll win though, while if he loses, Galla has to do 100 hours community service.
"@AnthonyGKalla: @BMarshall that's it? Cmon brandy make it 25 and we can do it in Detroit" And you have to apologize to my mom.

We're not sure if it's actually going to happen, but that sounds like something that could be televised for everyone's enjoyment.
