Logan Paul believes that performing in the WWE is “way harder” than when he stepped into the boxing ring to fight Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather.
Back in 2022, Logan Paul made his in-ring debut in WWE following a handful of appearances where he didn’t compete. The YouTuber was an immediate hit and quickly began ramping up appearances with the WWE.
He has since become one of the stars of the show, winning championships, competing in big matches, and putting a pretty big focus on professional wrestling. The imPaulsive podcast host has continually been tipped to have a fruitful career in the ring, with many wrestling legends tipping him to become a world champion in the future.
The wrestling ring isn’t his first introduction to combat sports, however, given his background in boxing. After fighting KSI twice, Logan switched his attention to Floyd Mayweather. The Maverick scored a draw in his exhibition with ‘Money’, and he has used that as a bar.
Logan Paul believes WWE is “way harder” than his boxing matches
Appearing on ESPN’s First Take, Logan said that his new in-ring career with WWE is “way harder” than fighting the undefeated boxing legend.
“I would definitely have to say WWE is way harder than fighting Floyd Mayweather. I’ve said this before. It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done by a mile. Boxing is obviously difficult,” he said.
“Floyd Mayweather is very good, but wrestling involves a 360-degree skill set where you have to work every part of your mind and body that I just have not experienced before in a craft.”

After their exhibition, Floyd said that “if it was a real fight, it would’ve been a blowout in the first round,” suggesting that he didn’t go hard enough against Logan.
The YouTuber-turned-wrestler chased Floyd for payment after that fight, claiming that he’d waited well over a year to be paid. Logan also suggested that he’d been asked for a rematch, but turned it down.
