Outside of his focus on playing for Major League Soccer club Inter Miami, Lionel Messi has made a name for himself as an influencer with over 503M followers on Instagram alone. He announced \u2018Mas+ by Messi\u2019 \u2014 his very own energy and hydration drink company \u2014 on June 4, 2024, complete with several launch flavors like Miami Punch, Orange d\u2019Or, and more. Shortly after it was announced, however, fans took to social media to call out its resemblance to Logan Paul and KSI\u2019s Prime drinks. KSI News Twitter account is just one of the posts about the drink, and they posted side by side screenshots of the two Hydration bottles. They said: \u201cNo way Messi\u2019s new drink looks exactly like Prime.\u201d \u201cThey can (and probably will) sue them, cause its a direct reference. Even the colors are similar. Ez win for them, they have no chance in court,\u201d one user replied. Another commented: \u201cPrime Hydration is like a popular video game. It is so popular; people want to not only complain about it but also make rip-offs off of it all because of its success.\u201d \u201cNah man Messi is the goat but wtf is he doing,\u201d a third said. The website for Messi\u2019s new drink doesn\u2019t have a full nutritional fact listing but does mention a few of the drink\u2019s highlights. According to the page, Mas+ has 10 calories while Prime has between 20 and 25. There\u2019s also less sugar in Mas+ and the selection of electrolytes, vitamins, and minerals are slightly different. As for taste, Messi fans will have to wait until it fully releases to find out. KSI reacted to Messi\u2019s drink launch in an Instagram story. \u201cSpeed was right, he is the goat,\u201d read the post on top of a picture of Cristiano Ronaldo. Over the last few years, KSI and IShowSpeed have gone back and forth over which footballer was the \u201cgreatest of all time,\u201d with KSI saying it was Messi and Speed saying it was Ronaldo. It\u2019s clear that with the launch of Mas+ by Messi, KSI has had a change of opinion. Neither Logan Paul nor Messi have commented on the resemblance between the two drinks but we\u2019ll be sure to update this article if they do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prime fans call out \u201crip off\u201d Mas+ drink from Lionel Messi Mas+ by MessiFootball star Lionel Messi has just announced his very own energy and hydration drink company, Mas+, and fans quickly took to social media to call out its similarities to KSI and Logan Paul\u2019s Prime.
