Logan Paul reveals he turned down Manny Pacquiao fight ahead of boxing return YouTube: Fight Hub TV\/Wikimedia: Akira KouchiyamaLogan Paul has explained why he turned down the chance to fight boxing legend Manny \u2018PacMan\u2019 Pacquiao as he eyes up a return to in-ring action. While his brother Jake has quickly become one of the focal points of the boxing world, Logan Paul hasn\u2019t been quite as active over the last few years. \u2018The Maverick\u2019 caught the attention of many when he took on Floyd \u2018Money\u2019 Mayweather, and went the distance in an exhibition draw, with plenty expecting to see him in the ring on a more regular basis afterwards. Instead, though, he turned his attention to the world of professional wrestling. Logan has impressed in the WWE, and has got a title match coming up on a show in Saudi Arabia. He will be returning to boxing before long, however, and he actually could have fought Manny Pacquiao in his return. Logan Paul turned down Manny Pacquiao boxing fight Speaking after the press conference to announce his WWE title match, Logan spoke to Fight Hub TV about his future in boxing and touched on the fact he had the chance to fight Pacquaio. The imPaulsive host noted that he doesn\u2019t think he can fight a YouTuber in his return fight, and it\u2019ll likely have to be someone with a fighting background. \u201cIt was on the table,\u201d Logan said about a potential fight with PacMan. \u201cOn the table, like do you want this fight? I said no. I will not be the guy that just fights retired boxers. I did that once, now I\u2019m going to fight a wrestler in his prime and see what happens.\u201d Timestamp of 1:55 As noted, Logan wants to feature on the card for KSI\u2019s next fight, which is scheduled to happen in January. Though, an exact date has yet to be announced. There has been some rumors that he\u2019ll fight longtime rival and former UFC fighter Dillon Danis, but again, we\u2019ll just have to wait and see on that front.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
