Logan Paul claims KSI was a tougher challenge than Floyd Mayweather
Logan Paul recently made a bold assertion, claiming that his business partner KSI presented a more formidable challenge than boxing legend Floyd Mayweather.
Paul and KSI engaged in two bouts that ended in a majority draw in 2018, followed by a professional rematch in which 'JJ' secured victory via split decision. Despite Paul's eight-round exhibition with Mayweather in 2021, he believes that his PRIME business partner proved to be a tougher challenge due to his unyielding tenacity and intensity.
Speaking in a recent interview with Misfits Boxing, Paul stated:
"Oh, who's tougher? Honestly, KSI. It was a harder fight, he's just a dog. He's got this tenacity and intensity that I've never seen. When you're in the ring with him he just wants to kill you, he can't lose! He made a documentary called 'Can't Lose' and I think he really believes that in his heart so he tries as hard as he can. I think Floyd Mayweather knew he wasn't gonna lose."
