In the era of the post-millennials, with the rapid spread of the internet and emerging social media platforms, global fame and influence have become an almost accidental and regular encounter of life. Likewise, over the past 2-3 years, celebrity-boxing fights have been quite an organized display of such influence and fame.

While some have generously appreciated the manner in which these fights help promote the game to an extensive audience, some have been ubiquitously critical. Whatever it shall be, YouTubers and other celebrities have made remarkable gains in the process, and that is an undying fact.

At this, the American YouTuber turned boxer Logan Paul serves as an ideal example. Paul, who reportedly made a profit of $20 million from his last fight, now plans to make an exit.

Following fellow YouTuber Deji’s devastating loss to Alex Wassabi, in a recent IMPAULSIVE Live session, Logan Paul talked about moving away from boxing.

“There’s a want that I just don’t see……. I don’t know, maybe boxing’s just not for him (Deji) or me. Like I get it. Brother, let’s quit this fu**ing sport. Let’s get outta here, dude.” 

Will Logan Paul, therefore, end his boxing career?

The Maverick, 27 years old, with only two appearances, has a record of 0-1, and 1 majority draw. In his lifetime, he has only fought two opponents – KSI and Mayweather.

Although Mayweather came out of retirement, at 44, he still outboxed Paul with grace. Even with all the obstacles trying to restrain Mayweather, he landed 40% of his total strikes. Whereas, Paul landed just 13% of his total attempts.

Maybe this is why Paul thinks that boxing is not for him. However, credit should also be given to Paul for the exposure that he has brought to boxing in the last few years.
