WWE superstar Logan Paul has expressed interest in venturing into MMA
In addition to Logan Paul's mammoth fan base as an influencer and his recent success as a WWE superstar, he also happens to be a skilled former amateur wrestler. Speaking of which, he's time and again opined that he could try his hand at the sport of MMA and compete in the world's premier MMA organization, UFC.
Besides, with the UFC-WWE merger that transpired in 2023, there's been widespread speculation that there could be an exchange of talents between the two organizations. On his Impaulsive podcast earlier this month (April 2024), Logan Paul hosted WWE legend and COO (Chief Content Officer) Paul 'Triple H' Levesque.
During their conversation, Paul alluded to his history as an amateur wrestler. He implied that his wrestling prowess would provide a great base for him to compete in an MMA bout in the UFC, provided it's against the right opponent. 'The Maverick' said:
"Send me. I wrestled. I wrestle now. I would do it ... For the right dance partner, yeah, I would love to do a UFC fight."
