R&B singer Chris Brown is being challenged to fight "a real opponent," following his alleged assault dispute with his former girlfriend, Rihanna.

Anthony Geisler, President of LA Boxing has set up a Facebook group page, "I Want to Fight Chris Brown." The group encourages people to sign up if they want to fight Brown, who is reportedly trained in martial arts.

"In light of recent reports regarding Chris Brown's [alleged] attack on Rihanna, Anthony Geisler, President of LA Boxing, is challenging Mr Brown to step into the ring against him and see what it's like to face a real opponent. If you'd like to be next in line, join us here!" states the group's page description.

According to the group's page, LA Boxing has sent a letter to Chris Brown's manager on Feb. 13, as a request for the Forever singer to step into the ring and face Geisler, who is also a martial arts expert. The group has yet to receive a response from Brown's representatives.

More than 3,500 Facebook members have signed up for the group.
