Despite Expressing His Love for Logan Paul, Mike Tyson Says He Would Kick His “F***** A**” in a WWE Ring for “Free”

“Iron” Mike Tyson has been a fixture in WWE due to his sporadic appearances. In the late 90s, the boxing legend joined DX before famously knocking Shawn Michaels out. The WWE Hall of Famer has also made several appearances in AEW. During a recent interview, the 56-year-old stated that he would love to fight Logan Paul in a wrestling ring. 

Logan Paul is undeniably one of the most hated WWE superstars. Although Paul is athletically gifted, he is certainly not a fan favorite.

Wrestling fans’ aversion to Logan Paul is so real that the YouTuber-turned-Wrestler was on the top of the list of superstars that the fans want to see get fired. But no matter what anybody thinks, Triple H has a vested interest in Logan Paul. 

Mike Tyson says he would love to beat Logan Paul in a wrestling ring for “free”

While speaking with Forbes’ Alfred Konuwa Mike Tyson spoke on a wide range of topics. At some point, he was asked if he would wrestle Logan Paul in a wrestling match.

While Tyson stated that he loves Logan Paul, he would still “kick his f***ing ass”. Tyson noted that although he has never wrestled in WWE, he wouldn’t mind destroying Logan Paul for free. 

“I would do it! I would kick his [Logan Paul] fu*k*ng a*s, yes I would do it. Even though I love him though [laughs],” said Tyson. “This is what I found out about WrestleMania: Everybody says ‘that’s fake, that’s fake. But the check is real. Deep down inside—don’t let [WWE] know—I would do this for free.”

While a match like that is very less likely to materialize, some fans would love to see Logan Paul get rag dolled in the ring by Tyson.

Make no mistake, Mike Tyson can revert to his primal state after extensive training. His last fight with Roy Jones in 2020 substantiated that Tyson is still as fast as he ever was in his prime. 

Logan Paul may become a WWE title holder very soon

After re-upping his WWE contract, Logan Paul told ESPN that he is aiming to be a Champion in WWE. According to Paul, he would not have re-signed with the company if he thought he could never hold a title.

The 29-year-old superstar’s multi-year extension may very well hand him a title shot in the future. Although no contract promises a title run, at the rate Paul is going, he will most likely become a Champion very soon.

“I wouldn’t have signed this contract if I didn’t think that I was capable of getting a WWE belt. I think it’d be the coolest thing ever. I’d love to have it on my résumé, and I’d love to show every kid around the world who watches WWE that you can achieve anything.”
