Logan Paul has claimed to have witnessed some major shocks over the past few weeks. Seeing Anthony Joshua lose was clearly one of them, as ‘The Maverick’ didn’t appear to have envisioned it. As a prime member of the boxing family now, Logan Paul holds sheer popularity among the combat media and the fans. Hence, his frequent opinions accumulate into forming some major controversies or twists.

That said, Paul took out time to share his views on two of the prime British boxers- Anthony Joshua and Tommy Fury.

‘TNT’ Fury became 7-0 as a professional by beating Anthony Taylor in the undercard of Jake Paul vs Tyron Woodley on August 29. Meanwhile, Anthony Joshua lost his unified heavyweight titles to Oleksandr Usyk on September 25.

As Paul explained himself about both the men, he sounded off on Tommy Fury. ‘The Maverick’ said, “I think Tommy Fury is a little bit of a dunce, if you well, it’s kind of like a kind of f****ng dweeb in a hot guy’s body.”

He continued, “Oh Joshua, Anthony Joshua.”

All these factors and statements have helped Paul retain relevancy in the boxing world. Furthermore, ‘The Maverick’ can also re-enter the ring, which validates him to have an opinion on today’s boxing world.
