Logan Paul appears to still have some interest in competing in boxing after previously retiring from the sport. The YouTuber had last fought against Floyd Mayweather and the experience was a rather sour one.
Now it looks like Logan Paul could be back to box in 2022. The YouTuber recently spoke on The MMA Hour and revealed he was looking at a fight against Whindersson Nunes.

I think, similarly to myself, he’s pivoted multiple careers and the kid obviously works hard and is disciplined, and I think it would be an amazing match with two massive entertainers. He’s got 60 million or so followers on Instagram. He rivals some of the biggest celebrities in the world, and in Brazil I don’t think it gets much bigger than him. So the same way when I first boxed KSI, it was an international bloodbath, U.K. vs. the U.S.A., it would be cool to do United States vs. Brazil.”
Canelo Alvarez is someone that has been linked to the Paul brothers before. Logan Paul was quick to shut down a potential boxing match against the Mexican great.
“I’m gonna leave that up to Jake,” Paul said. “He wants to be a real, live boxer — he wants to go 10-0. A) I don’t care. B) I’m already professionally 0-1, so I’ve ruined my chances. I’m 0-1-1. What a lame start, dude. Like, f*ck it. I’ll just go on an put on some big shows, and hopefully we’ll see what happens with this Whindersson situation. But the next person I fight will get knocked out. I have no doubt in my mind that me going from fighting the best fighter on the planet in Floyd Mayweather to any other person will end any other way than a knockout equivalent to that of my brother’s.”
