Khamzat Chimaev calls out Logan Paul for UFC fight after Dana White comments Instagram: khamzat_chimaev \/ YouTube: IMPAULSIVEMMA pro Khamzat Chimaev is challenging YouTube boxer Logan Paul after Dana White claimed he was open to letting Paul have a turn in the UFC. Logan Paul has long vied for a spot in the UFC ever since his debut boxing match against former rival KSI in 2018. At first, White was clearly disinterested in entertaining the Paul brothers, notably saying the duo would \u201cget murdered\u201d the second they set foot in the octagon. However, four years and three boxing matches later, White admitted he was \u201cnot saying no\u201d to the possibility of Logan getting a stint in the UFC during a recent podcast episode. View this post on Instagram Since his first bout with KSI in the boxing ring, Paul has taken on undefeated boxing champ Floyd Mayweather and has even made multiple appearances in the WWE. With this in mind, along with Dana\u2019s comments, it seems that a major name in the UFC is eyeing Logan as a potential opponent. UFC welterweight fighter Khamzat Chimaev notably called out Logan on Twitter in a response to Dana\u2019s comments regarding his potential career in the combat sports org. \u201cI\u2019m waiting for you in UFC [Logan],\u201d Chimaev wrote, adding a zombie emoji to show that the YouTuber\u2019s already a \u2018dead man walking.\u2019 Dana didn’t tell Logan Paul no \ud83d\ude33 (via @impaulsiveshow) pic.twitter.com\/U3KnUolgxY \u2014 ESPN MMA (@espnmma) March 17, 2022 Although Paul has yet to respond to this latest callout, he\u2019s already setting his sights fairly high; the oldest Paul brother is also considering a full-time career in the WWE following his well-received match against Rey Mysterio at WrestleMania 38. For now, there\u2019s no telling where Paul\u2019s combat sports career will take him as he continues to break out of the YouTuber mold.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
