However, prior to the fight, Logan Paul has encouraged Masvidal. He has tweeted, “big personalities, great athletes… love this fight LET’S GO MASVIDAL #UFC272.”
The rivalry between the Paul brothers and Jorge Masvidal?
Prior to the mega-event of UFC 272, ‘The Problem Child’ was keen to lock horns with the UFC welterweight contender Jorge Masvidal. The 25-year-old has even offered a massive amount of £5 million to the latter. However, Masvidal has turned down the probable clash. ‘Gamebred’ was of the opinion that he did not want to ruin his 20-year long career and will continue with UFC.
Keeping this in mind, the undefeated 5-0 took to Twitter and slammed Masvidal for his richness. Notably, both were friends for some time when the duo was training together in 2021.

However, while targeting Jake Paul earlier, Masvidal has dragged Logan paul too in his rivalry. He told ESPN, “If they put money in my pocket, that Logan Paul dude, Jake Paul, whoever Paul dudes—if they put money in my pocket, of course, I’d like to break some Disney characters’ faces. I’ve been fighting men who have been training since 7, 8 years old to do the same thing to me what I want to do to them. Fighting guys like [the Pauls] is a bonus, man.”
