Essentials Inside The Story

  • Brady criticized Paul for challenging Browns star Myles Garrett
  • The FFC tournament will take place Saturday, March 21, 2026
  • The event features three 12-player teams: Founders FFC, Wildcats FFC and Team USA

During the FFC Draft in Beverly Hills, Logan Paul and Tom Brady found themselves in the same room once again. The WWE star has been calling out NFL players like Myles Garrett and others, but when he finally came face-to-face with NFL royalty, he got a verbal beatdown from the man himself: Tom Brady.

“Logan’s pulled out of a lot of fights this weekend,” said Brady as Logan Paul stepped on stage, adding, “Logan’s pulled out of four fights this week already.”

The seven-time Super Bowl winner wasn’t just throwing some random jab at Logan. His comments came after the WWE star challenged all the NFL players to a $1 million prize if they fought him in a boxing match.

“Not a single football player could beat me in a boxing match,” he said. “Any football player, it doesn’t matter. A million dollars. You come to the gym, we put on boxing gloves, we see how it goes.”

The competition came very close to turning real as former Steelers player and retired NFL star Le’Veon Bell accepted his challenge. Bell holds some experience in professional boxing, and later called out Logan on X.

“Bro tryna fight an NFL player that’s never fought before. Let’s set it up bro, we all heard you say you can beat any NFL player,” he wrote. “We can fight in April, the NFL draft is in PITTSBURGH .. we can fight NFL draft weekend! let’s make it happen.”

While responding to Bell’s message, Paul added that Bell doesn’t have the potential and isn’t a draw.

“There’s no money here because you’re not a draw. Prove me otherwise.”

Fast forward to the event, the two kept going at each other as Logan put Brady up to a challenge, “Tom’s got a lot to say. Let’s see if you still got it this weekend,” Paul said as Brady shot back with an “I got it.”

“We’re saving it for a few days from now,” Brady said before taking a bigger shot. “Logan picked a fight with Myles Garrett. That was the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen in my life.”

Brady clearly got the better of Paul in this round of trash talk. But with both set to stay around each other for the event, this back-and-forth is far from over.
