Logan Paul thinks WWE is “way harder” than fighting Floyd Mayweather. During an appearance on ESPN’s First Take, the WWE United States Champion was asked to compare his experience in professional wrestling to his boxing exhibition against the legendary fighter.
“It’s a hard question just because of how good I am at almost everything and how humble I am, and that’s not just me saying that, that’s what everyone says,” Paul joked. “But I would definitely have to say WWE is way harder than fighting Floyd Mayweather.”
Paul elaborated on why he believes wrestling presents a unique challenge compared to traditional combat sports.
“I’ve said this before, it’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done by a mile,” Paul said. “Boxing is obviously very difficult, Mayweather is very good. But wrestling involves a 360 degree skillset where you have to work every part of your mind and body that I have just not experienced before in a craft.”
Paul faced Mayweather in an exhibition boxing match in June 2021, which went the distance with no winner declared. Since joining WWE, Paul has become a featured star, including holding the United States Championship.
