Logan Paul was recently offered the chance to join the MMA ranks of the Professional Fighters League (PFL) but he opted not to take the offer.

Since becoming a success on the app Vine and then on YouTube, Paul has now got his fingers in many pies. He recently launched the Prime energy drink with fellow YouTuber and boxer KSI, and he has also entered the world of acting as well as boxing.

He signed a WWE contract on June 2022 and fought Roman Reigns in Saudi Arabia recently, to much fanfare. He did not win but fans were very impressed by the way that his fighting skills have clearly developed in recent years.

American rapper Wiz Khalifa, who is also a co-owner of the PFL, was recently on Paul’s podcast, Impulsive, when he was asked whether he wants to be involved with the PFL and fight for a grand prize of one million dollars.

Paul was swift to decline the offer and claimed that it would take more than that sum of money for him to reconsider his stance.

Whilst that response is not widely believed, it is also not known why he chose to decline the offer. One theory is that he is now much more focused on progressing within WWE rather than moving into a different combat sport instead.

He has repeatedly said that he would like to fight wrestling legend John Cena at WrestleMania, and that is something that he will have to work towards and work very hard.

Paul has also shown an interest in fighting internet personality Andrew Tate, known for his sexist remarks online. Tate has said that he would be interested in the fight.
