Video: WWE's Logan Paul Says He Declined Floyd Mayweather Jr. Boxing Rematch Twice

Logan Paul said on In Depth With Graham Bensinger that he declined two requests from Floyd Mayweather Jr. to have a rematch of their June 2021 exhibition bout.

"Yeah. He asked me. He asked me. Twice. He was supposed to fight someone on top of the Burj Al Arab in Dubai – it fell through. He asked if I wanted to step in. I said no. He's not a person you take a fight on six weeks notice with, and not with the goal that I have. I already fought Floyd Mayweather. If I did it again, it would be to beat Floyd Mayweather – which I think is doable. I just need to train proper… And also if I fought him again it wouldn't be 85/15, it's 50/50. 'F--k you bro, I don't need this s--t. You need it way more than I do.'"

Paul and Mayweather went the distance in their eight-round match, which went down in Miami.

Although Paul isn't interested in fighting the 47-year-old Mayweather again, he believes he'd defeat the former boxing champion and undefeated pugilist (5-0).

"I think I'd beat him...Because I was so enthralled with the idea of fighting Floyd Mayweather. In my head he's this 5'2" giant, but he's just 5'2", Paul said.

"He's beatable. I'm a YouTuber and I went eight rounds with 'the greatest fighter of all time?' Yeah right."

Mayweather actually stands a half-foot taller at 5'8", but Paul's sentiments on the matter were made abundantly clear. It doesn't appear that a rematch will go down, though.

"Probably not," Paul said.

"Maybe, but I just feel like I got bigger fish to fry, literally. But the idea of being the only person to knock out Floyd Mayweather excites me. I would also request 10 rounds, because I was coming alive at the end. He was not."

Boxing doesn't seem to be in Paul's future at the moment, regardless. The now-WWE superstar currently holds the promotion's United States Champion belt. He'll be defending that title at WrestleMania XL in a triple threat match against Kevin Owens and Randy Orton.
