Logan Paul feels confident ahead of Floyd Mayweather fight
Logan Paul in an interview with ETonline said last month that he was feeling dangerous and confident ahead of his fight against Floyd Mayweather.
“I feel so dangerous. I feel so confident,” Paul said. “I don’t know if I’ve ever felt more confident about anything in my life. I’m a dangerous fighter, man.”
“I’ve been doing it for three years now and no one’s seen me fight for over a year, and it’s all I’ve been doing,” added Paul.
Logan Paul also said that his loss to KSI has taught him a lot and he has since become determined.
“You learn a lot when you lose. I would almost be more afraid of the man who’s lost and is determined and also has nothing to lose.”
“Think about it, I don’t have anything to lose. I lose against Floyd Mayweather, who cares? Right? You fought Floyd Mayweather. I win against Floyd Mayweather, I’m the greatest fighter of all time,” he said. “There’s a lot of freedom in that.”
