Logan Paul is set to make his boxing return at The Prime Card on October 14 when he takes on Dillon Danis.
This will mark Paul’s first boxing fight since 2021, following his exhibition bout against Floyd Mayweather Jr., which was not scored. In 2019, he suffered a loss to YouTuber KSI.
While appearing on “The MMA Hour” podcast, Paul discussed going back and forth between boxing and WWE. He said,
“Boxing is just so much more intensely violent. Both sports have their danger and both extremely primal. I often feel like I’m born in the wrong generation. I like the idea of two men, two women, humans going at it with all they have. I don’t know, I just feel like I’m built for it. Boxing ignited a certain part of my brain that wrestling doesn’t, and wrestling ignites a certain part of my brain that boxing doesn’t. I like going back and forth. Also, who’s doing it? I gotta make a legacy somehow.”
Paul added that WWE has been very accommodating during this time. He stated,
“We gotta find a time in the schedule to carve out a time to box. I am technically a full-time wrestler. I’m on the roster, I have a contract, and it’s also a goal of mine to get WWE championships. I didn’t just come to partake. I came to take over. You don’t do that if you’re hopping in and out of the sport. So we gotta find time to box and find time to wrestle, and they’ve been very accommodating.”
