Logan Paul says he may \u201cnever box again\u201d as fighting career hangs in limbo Amanda Westcott for SHOWTIMELogan Paul has put a pin in what was a fledgling fighting career, with the YouTuber declaring he may \u201cnever box again\u201d \u2014 a decision he explains has several big factors behind it, not least of all long-term health concerns. The Maverick may have just hung up his boxing gloves. Despite several big fight offers still sitting on the table, including a potential bout with heavyweight champ Tyson Fury \u2014 whose brother dodged his own Jake Paul fight just last week \u2014 and boxing legend Mike Tyson, the older Paul brother is adamant his short-lived career is now over. \u201cAm I going to box again? What can I do?\u201d Logan said after the topic came up on the ImPaulsive podcast. \u201cWe\u2019ve already done some sick things for boxing. I could never box again, really, and be totally fine with it.\u201d Paul continued: \u201cBoxing has health implications I\u2019m concerned about, I\u2019ll admit that. And Jake is doing everything in the ring for the family. For both of us.\u201d \u201cMaybe I can just be the cheerleader for you [Jake] now. You do it for us, and I can\u2019t do anything to match that bar. You raised it so far. I can just be the drunk, high brother, and be there supporting you.\u201d \u201cThe decisions we [the Paul brothers] make in our lives, and we\u2019re so f**king blessed to be able to make decisions like this, aren\u2019t always based on money or clout. We get to do things that we want to do. And right now Jake is doing it. On behalf of both of us. He\u2019s checked a box for the family, and I\u2019m satisfied.\u201d Logan then went on to admit he has considered lining up his next fight sooner rather than later, especially whenever he sees Jake \u201cget a massive f**king knockout,\u201d with the energy of the match getting inside his head. \u201cI feel it, all the time, I love competition, that drive that comes with fighting. And I\u2019m envious of that. But you\u2019re doing so good of it, I see that work. That\u2019s yours now.\u201d Never say never though, especially not when it comes to the Paul brothers \u2014 Logan may have declared his days in the ring, and preparing for those battles, over, but he quickly added he doesn\u2019t want to rule out anything. \u201cLook, I\u2019m saying no, but I can see myself doing it again, sometime. When I see these motherf**kers hitting the canvas, time and time again, there\u2019s this fire in me. I\u2019m sitting there like, \u2018Jake is the coolest guy ever,\u2019 and I want to get that feeling again. I can remember it, right now I\u2019m riding it.\u201d If Logan does backflip, there\u2019s certainly plenty of fights waiting, not least of all a potential Mike Tyson showdown, or even Icelandic strongman Hafthor Bjornsson.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
