Logan Paul is spreading his arms everywhere in the combat sports world as he challenged Andrew Tate, the internet personality who caught the attention of everyone recently, to a UFC match. The two have been teasing a match with the other for a while, but never committed to it. Both also gave reasons as to why they wouldn’t fight the other. But this time, the cards seem to be in the right place as Paul challenged Tate to a UFC bout.
As we know already that Tate is a former kickboxing world champion and Paul has had a history with both wrestling and boxing, so this match would be a sight to see. Also, an additional factor would be the internet culture that both of these guys have culminated in over the years.

But as with everything on the internet, Paul didn’t just challenge Tate, but he also mocked him. Now, the only thing fans need is a response from the controversial internet figure.
Logan Paul disregards Andrew Tate’s MMA past while calling him out
Logan Paul spoke about Tate on his podcast. He said, “I see him (Andrew Tate) saying he wants to fight. I’m offering him the fight and he’s not taking it. He obviously doesn’t wanna box. A four-time World Champ kickboxer is afraid of a YouTuber with no wins.”
“So I got a solution. Why don’t we do something that both of us have never done? Let us step into the fu***g Octagon brother. An MMA fight, me versus Tate in the UFC.”

For the uninitiated, Andrew Tate has an amateur and professional MMA record of 2-1. So it comes as a surprise that Logan forgot about his record and challenged him to an MMA bout and saying that it’s a sport that none of them have tried yet. This could also be Paul’s way of dissing Tate and his experience with MMA.
On Sean O’Malley’s YouTube channel, Tate said, “I try to watch the UFC but where I am in Romania; it is hard but I catch bits of it. There is no doubt about it, if I was to redo my career and start again, I would have started with MMA and look to get in the UFC.”

Moreover, Tate has recently been making news as he was banned from several platforms because of his remarks and actions.
Putting these two against each other, considering the controversies that both have found themselves in, is going to draw many eyes. Dana White, the President of the UFC, would have a blast if Tate agreed to this match as it would draw a vast crowd to the UFC.
