Global internet sensation Logan Paul has been at the forefront of combat sports for the past few years. He has developed substantial fan bases in both boxing and WWE in a relatively short amount of time. In a recent podcast interview, he talked about his perceptions of competing against other athletes, such as UFC color commentator Joe Rogan. Paul allegedly stated a provocative assertion that fans would find intriguing.

Logan Paul appeared in a recent episode of the Bobby Lee and Khalyla Kuhn-hosted program ‘TigerBelly’.

The YouTuber was questioned about facing particular fighters as the episode went on. He stated unequivocally that he could not defeat Khabib Nurmagomedov and Kamaru Usman when questioned about them.

However, when asked about Joe Rogan, Paul stated, “I would fu** Joe Rogan up.”

Following that, he was asked about Dustin Poirier, and he went on to say, “Yeah, he just fought. He had a great fight. I don’t know, it’s tough bro, I could do this all day. The point is I’d fu** up, Joe Rogan.”

Till now, ‘The Maverick'(0-1) has competed against tough opponents like Floyd Mayweather. He went the distance with Floyd, displaying remarkable athleticism and a positive attitude. However, Paul’s comments about Rogan, who has been training in Taekwondo since he was a teenager, may have offended him.

The Ohio native has acknowledged numerous times that he is a big fan of Rogan. The UFC commentator has been hosting ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’ podcast for years, and it now has a worldwide audience. Paul has been a guest on a number of renowned podcasts up to this point, but he has never been invited to Rogan’s show.

Paul was in conversation with Andrew Schulz on ‘The Flagrant’ podcast, where he was asked when would he appear on the JRE podcast.

The 27-year-old replied, “It’s no rush. I’ll give him a f**king good a*s reason to have me on proper one day. If he doesn’t feel it’s right yet, it’s not. No rush, I’ll be around. I got some big things coming. I need something, I’m lulling right now, I’m stagnant.”
