Logan Paul believes he can go toe-to-toe with Mike Tyson.
During the latest episode of his “Impaulsive” podcast, Logan talked about his future in the boxing industry alongside his brother, Jake Paul.
Logan recalled that he’d gone eight rounds with Floyd Mayweather and began discussing who he’d go against next in the ring.
“Someone mentioned Mike Tyson, like how funny is it? One great at a time. Or is it like you can only fight one” said Paul. “My lawyer mentioned it, and he was like, ‘No, Tyson will rip your head off. You don’t stand a chance.”
Paul continued: “I’m like, bro, I literally just went through all of this. You can’t tell me I can’t beat Mike Tyson. Bro, he’s old, old.”

The 26-year-old YouTube star made headlines earlier this month for his fight against Floyd Mayweather in a boxing exhibit. The two were embroiled in a brief controversy when his brother reportedly stole Mayweather’s hat during a press event and received a black eye from security.
Paul later said that Mayweather was slower than he expected during their fight. He added that he whispered things in Mayweather’s ears to throw him off during the match.
“That was crazy for me,” Paul said after the match. “I knew if it went the distance, I won, technically.”
During a press conference, Paul said he kept a list of everyone who said Mayweather would embarrass him, including Mike Tyson.
“You’re all f—ed,” Paul said. “Mike Tyson is on it. I love Mike Tyson, but he’s on it. He told me on my own podcast, ‘Floyd is going to beat his f—— ass.’ That’s what he said. Floyd didn’t beat my f—— ass, Mike.”
