Logan Paul
Logan Paul is just a few weeks away from his exhibition Boxing bout against boxing legend Floyd Mayweather. The pair are set to face off on the 6th of June in Showtime Pay-per-view. Paul has been actively training for his fight and will be hoping that his height and weight would give at least a remote advantage against one of the greatest defensive boxers in the history of the sport.
The YouTube star recently spoke to Mauro Ranallo in an interview with Showtime Sports. ‘Maverick stated that he would try definitely to get into the sport of mixed martial arts one day due to his wrestling background. Logan was a standout athlete during his college days and is believed to have missed the state-level tournament, only by a whisker.
‘If I win, I’d probably do another‘ – Logan Paul
In the interview Logan acknowledged the holistic abilities of MMA fighters, calling it a tougher sport than boxing. But he was hellbent on trying the sport at least once before he dies.
Logan Paul was quoted as saying, “Yeah, absolutely. I actually think I’d probably be better at MMA because of my wrestling background. I will say it’s a tough sport. It’s harder than boxing. MMA fighters are legitimate, all around, 360-degree fighters. I’ve had some knee issues on both knees and it’s rough on the body.
He concluded “But I can’t not do at least one MMA fight before I die, at least one. If I win, I’d probably do another.”
Back to boxing; there is also a bit of bad blood going on between Logan Paul and Floyd Mayweather. The reason? Logan’s brother Jake Paul stole Mayweather’s hat at the first press-conference between Logan and Floyd. Paul was then beaten up by Mayweather’s entourage and left with a black eye.
Hardly had people seen Mayweather angered and enraged like that before.
