Logan Paul isn\u2019t taking his loss to KSI in their 2019 boxing bout lightly. The nail-biting defeat has kicked the American into gear, swapping codes to Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) and looking to take on some of the world\u2019s best in 2020 and beyond. His swap hasn\u2019t gone unnoticed by sporting and entertainment royalty, with big names coming out of the woodwork teasing bouts with Paul. Antonio Brown is the latest in a long line of names to put themselves forward for a prospective bout, tweeting a cryptic message at Paul on January 6. Brown tweeted out a short \u201csquare up\u201d threat at Paul, with the NFL star hinting he\u2019s ready to take the YouTuber down. He also appeared on American radio show KFC Radio, saying he\u2019s ready to \u201cf**k Paul up.\u201d He is aware of the challenge too, quipping back a quick retort at Brown on Twitter. \u201cI\u2019d drop you faster than the Patriots,\u201d he said. While it might all just be a ruse, with the off-season approaching there\u2019s still a chance it could happen. Betting agencies like Odds Shark have already opened the books for the bout, with Logan Paul drawing ahead as the favorite just hours after the challenge was initially tweeted. i\u2019d drop you faster than the patriots https:\/\/t.co\/Vv592JRkxk \u2014 Logan Paul (@LoganPaul) January 7, 2020 Opening odds for a potential boxing match between @LoganPaul and @AB84 (BetOnline): Logan Paul -2000 Antonio Brown +1000\u2014 Odds Shark (@OddsShark) January 7, 2020 The 31-year-old wide receiver was a part of the New England Patriots line-up who were recently knocked out of Superbowl contention by the Tennessee Titans. He is now a free agent. Weighing in at around 185 pounds, he comes in slightly lighter than Paul\u2019s 189lb, but the professional athlete is unlikely to be phased regardless. Logan Paul has been training hard to make the swap into MMA, saying it was a dream of his to fight at least one bout in 2020. Two fights are in the works, one for both MMA and boxing, according to the YouTuber, so fans will have something to look forward to as the year progresses. \ud83d\udc40\ud83d\udc40\ud83d\udc40 @AB84 @LoganPaul @KFCradio https:\/\/t.co\/DEWLj2MR9F \u2014 Rough N&#8217; Rowdy (@roughnrowdy) January 7, 2020 Brown joins the likes of Joel \u2018JMX\u2019 Morris in the waiting list for a Paul fight. JMX called out Paul for a scrap on January 2, with the FIFA YouTuber fighting on the undercard of KSI vs Joe Weller in 2018, and later on in the KSI vs Logan Paul undercard. JMX also has experience in MMA, winning his first professional bout back in November 2019, afterwards stating that he\u2019d \u201clove to knee the sh*t out of\u201d Paul. Paul has likely got something in the works, and with no shortage of challengers, he will be the one with the power to inevitably decide who takes him on for pride and glory later in the year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Antonio Brown becomes latest star to challenge Logan Paul to a fight Controversial NFL star Antonio Brown has become the latest star to challenge Logan Paul to a potential fight, with the former Patriots star calling out the YouTuber on Twitter.
