The YouTuber turned boxer recently called out the current United States Champion after winning his boxing bout against Dillon Danis. He told the fans that he is eyeing the championship that Mysterio is currently in possession of. First, Mysterio took to Twitter to tell Paul that he would be waiting for him after asking him to show up at Friday Night SmackDown anytime he liked. And now, he has something more to say to him.
In a recent interview with TMZ Sports, the Mexican luchador was asked for his comments on Logan Paul’s callout. Thinking of the social media influencer, Mysterio had a reply in mind.
The United States Champion said, “I’m looking to shut him up in a way. I mean, he said he has his eyesight on something and someone. It’s me and the US Title.” He then boasted about his achievements and belittled his opponent by saying, “So, let’s go. I mean, I’ve only been doing this for 34 years. I don’t think he was even born before that happened.”
Despite how his words seem, Mysterio still doesn’t underestimate his new rival. Even while talking to the interviewer, the WWE Hall of Famer mentioned how Paul’s in-ring capabilities have increased.
This isn’t the first time that Mysterio has mentioned the 28-year-old and his challenge. In fact, he recently even gave his opinion on why he thinks Logan is eyeing his precious title.
