Watch Justin Bieber explain why he could beat Tom Cruise in a fight

Justin Bieber (with Mustachio still resting firmly above his lip) returned for his third Carpool Karaoke segment with James Corden and while he did look a little bit distracted, it was still a wild ride from start to finish.

Corden’s hands were waving about and off the wheel while the pair sang Yummy and I Don't Care but we knew that the Biebs was in no real danger because this is the very episode where the host was caught relying on a flatbed truck to tow them instead of actually driving the vehicle – much to the Internet’s dismay.

The Late Late Show host then brought up Bieber’s cryptic tweet from last year where the Sorry singer challenged Tom Cruise to a fight apropos of nothing.

He asked Bieber what prompted him to do it, to which the singer replied: "I don't know. I was just being stupid, to be honest. (But) then people were like, 'I wanna see this happen.' And I was like, 'You know what? That could actually be funny.’"

Corden then said he thought Cruise would win their fight. “I don’t think it would be much fun for you. I think if you and Tom Cruise have a fight, I’d back Tom every day of the week.”

Bieber did not agree with this assessment and retorted: “He’s not the guy you see in movies. I'm dangerous. My agility is crazy. My agility is insane. He is an actor.”

The 25-year-old then added: “I don’t think you understand the mind control that I have. My mind control is another specimen. I’m different. I’m the Conor McGregor of… entertainment.”

Those sound like fighting words but somehow we doubt Cruise is losing any sleep over this challenge.
