Jon Gosselin, Hailey Glassman and their attorneys have plans to sit down and resolve their differences, but Hailey's friend Damon Feldman has a different idea of how to settle things.
Celebrity boxing promoter Feldman told RadarOnline.com that he's so furious at the way Jon treated Hailey he's challenging Gosselin to a boxing match with a $120,000 purse.
“I have had enough of this guy – let’s see if he is man enough to step inside the ring with me," Feldman told RadarOnline.com.
“Hailey is a sweet kid and this idiot won’t leave her alone but he better back off right now – I’m sure people would pay to see me beat him up inside the ring."

Hailey told police that Jon pushed her against a wall. Jon's reps claim Hailey trashed his apartment and stole items from it. New York police are still investigating the situation.
Feldman is a former pro boxer and told RadarOnline.com: “I fought as a super middle weight, fighting at 170 lbs, and had a professional record of 9-0 retiring undefeated after I suffered an injury in a car accident."
Photographs surfaced of Feldman and Hailey kissing at a promotional boxing event shortly before Hailey claims an infuriated Jon pushed her against a wall.
Feldman believes Hailey's charges and told RadarOnline.com that it's time for the ex Jon & Kate Plus 8 star to pick on someone his own size. Feldman, who now weight 210 pounds and says he works out regularly, said about Gosselin: “He couldn’t make it work with his wife, can’t get any kind of career going...what type of person is he?
“If he is so frustrated and hard-up for cash then he should fight me that would take care of his child support for around a year!"

Financier Bobby Capone, who helps Feldman put together his celebrity boxing matches around America, told RadarOnline.com that he would be interested in putting up the purse for the fight.
He said: “I’m friends with Damon and it’s something I would invest in as I’m sure a lot of people would pay to see him take on Jon Gosselin.
“But I’m pretty sure that Gosselin would not want to fight Damon though but it would definitely be commercially viable.”
