Top WWE star Logan Paul recently appeared on ESPN First Take to discuss various topics, including which is harder: WWE or boxing against legend Floyd Mayweather.
Paul said, “Yeah, between fighting Floyd Mayweather and doing WWE. You know, it’s a hard question just because of how good I am at most everything. And also how humble I am. And that’s not just me saying that, That’s just what everyone says. But 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 is obviously difficult, Floyd 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 just have not experienced before in a craft.”
On what he has learned from Paul Heyman:
“I think a better question is what haven’t I learned from Paul Heyman? That guy is a wealth of knowledge. I spend every second I can with him backstage when we’re not wrestling just learning the craft. He’s taught me a bunch. I can get into like granular wrestling terms, or I can keep it high-level. And the one thing that he’s definitely taught me is that with him by my side, I have someone on the executive team who can speak for me so I don’t have to make stupid decisions backstage where I would lose my job. Like attacking CM Punk because he pisses me off. Instead of doing that, I can just go to Paul Heyman, right? And he can talk to the executives and handle it professionally. So he keeps me in check and now that I have a unit, I just don’t see how we’re going to be stopped at all.”
