Logan Paul \u201cnot happy\u201d with his boxing performance against Floyd Mayweather Amanda Westcott for SHOWTIME \/ YouTube: imPaulsiveYouTube star Logan Paul faced off against boxing legend Floyd Mayweather in one of the biggest influencer fights to date \u2014 but when all was said and done, Paul wasn\u2019t exactly pleased with his performance. Influencer boxing has become one of the hottest trends among A-list internet stars. Following in the footsteps of Joe Weller vs KSI, names like Logan and Jake Paul soon hopped on the bandwagon, creating a hugely successful craze that\u2019s attracting millions of eyeballs across the net. This culminated in an entirely unexpected \u2014 but not unwelcome \u2014 bout between 50-0 boxing champ Floyd Mayweather and Logan Paul. After a few months in the wings, the fight was officially announced, and the two faced off on June 6 with no official winner declared. While it\u2019s impressive enough that Paul managed to go the distance with one of the sport\u2019s greatest fighters, Logan admitted that he wasn\u2019t impressed with his own performance during the bout. \u201cI learned so much about boxing,\u201d Paul said during a June 10 episode of his \u2018imPaulsive\u2019 podcast. \u201cIt was a master class. And I\u2019m not happy with my performance as a boxer, bro.\u201d \u201cI looked like s**t \u2014 which is good, I think, because if my opponents in the future go back and watch tape, that\u2019s not how I box. I had to amend for Floyd Mayweather, who, by the way, has every style in the book. He exhibited three different, mastered techniques and styles in one fight.\u201d \u201cI\u2019m like, switching as it goes on, and kind of catering to him and I knew I was gonna have to make it a dogfight, use my weight, use my strength,\u201d he continued. \u201c\u2026I got lucky, because in the first round, I got in a good shot.\u201d (Topic begins at 16:07) While Logan Paul has had his time in the ring with Mayweather, little bro Jake could be the champ\u2019s next influencer opponent \u2014 if he manages to lose nearly 36 pounds, as Mayweather has required. For now, it seems that Logan has taken away a few major lessons from his latest fight\u2026 and there\u2019s no telling where the sport will take him next.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
