Outrageously annoying YouTube star Logan Paul wants to fight in the UFC

This is a win-win situation…

Logan Paul, the YouTube vlogger who infamously filmed victims of suicide in a Japanese forest, has announced that he would like to fight in the Ultimate Fighting Championship. And we say… let him.

Paul, whose other “pranks” include faking his own death in front of his young fans and putting the footage on YouTube, thinks that he has what it takes to make it in the dangerous world of MMA-fighting.

In an interview with TMZ, Paul said “I want a fight a UFC fighter. I wrestled my whole life. There’s no reason I can’t, I’ve done athletics my whole life. Dana White, you watching this bro? Pick a fight for me bro.”

Prompted to call somebody out, Paul said “CM Punk.” He then agreed that it would be “dope” to fight Conor McGregor. His brother Jake added “If the Floyd thing can happen than anything can happen,” referring to McGregor’s crossover boxing match with Floyd Mayweather.

Logan Paul currently has two boxing matches scheduled against fellow YouTuber KSI. The first of those bouts is set to take place on August 25.
