WWE star and YouTube sensation Logan Paul has hit back at Conor McGregor’s latest criticism of social media boxers. The 27-year-old spoke up in defense of his good friend and fellow social media star, KSI.
KSI is set to make his return to the boxing ring against McGregor’s long-term teammate, Dillon Danis. Meanwhile, Paul’s latest boxing match saw him and Floyd Mayweather compete in an eight-round exhibition bout with no winner being announced.
Taking to Twitter, the Irishman claimed that he wasn’t a fan of the YouTube boxing “genre.”
In response, Paul set the record straight with McGregor. He took a dig at the UFC star by comparing both of their fights against Floyd Mayweather.
“Genre of boxing” ?? Boxing is boxing. I’m a YouTuber & I still did more damage to Floyd than you,” wrote Logan Paul.

Mark Henry believes Logan Paul and John Cena could feud against each other
Logan Paul’s latest match in WWE was against Roman Reigns at Crown Jewel, as The Maverick was unsuccessful in winning the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship.
Post-match, Paul revealed that he might’ve suffered multiple injuries. He is currently absent from WWE programming but has made his intentions to face John Cena at WrestleMania 39 clear.
Speaking on the Busted Open podcast, WWE legend and current AEW personality Mark Henry also expressed his interest in the feud. The World’s Strongest Man feels that the two stars could potentially cross paths down the road.
“Logan Paul called him out. Maybe, there’s a rebuttal [from John Cena on SmackDown]. ‘If you can get that knee healthy, maybe let’s do this at WrestleMania.'”
