Although that might have seemed like he was just kidding about wanting to make his MMA debut against Paddy Pimblett. Because a battle against Pimblett is not a joke since he is on a whole other level, has destroyed every opponent he has faced, and is still unbeaten in the UFC.
However, you should also remember that Paul fought against Floyd Mayweather and looked excellent in that contest, thus he is highly likely to do well. If he really faces him.
Eryl Anders
Eryl Anders had a strong football career prior to switching to MMA, where he did well. Similar to Logan Paul, he also played other sports. His record is 15-7, with 9 victories coming through Ko.

After two losses, “Ya Boi” managed to defeat Kyle Daukaus last month, and now he is undoubtedly seeking for a challenging opponent who can give him a boost and put him in the spotlight—and who better to do that than Paul. Similar to how Anders will be an excellent opponent for Paul to have his first match and some cage fighting exposure before facing off against the other notable stars in the company.
Johnny Walker
Johnny Walker has already made noise about fighting “The Maverick.” Walker has revived his winning run after defeating Paul Craig in the opening round of UFC 281. Meanwhile, after Paul shared the UFC announcement news, he responded, which shocked a number of fans. You can check his response below.
Walker claims that he is willing to compete against Paul at light heavyweight if Paul wants. Since Walker has some significant abilities and if this bout actually happens, it will be a no-miss event. This comment has definitely sparked a light in the UFC community.
Conor McGregor
It is both exciting and bizarre to see whether this will actually happen, but it is possible given that the two have recently traded barbs on Twitter. Additionally, Paul has fought some of the greatest names wherever he has gone, so seeing him take on McGregor would be unexpected but thrilling.
Paul made fun of McGregor and said that he had done more damage to Mayweather than McGregor had while they were arguing over their past on Twitter. The Notorious responded, “I gave Floyd Mayweather a black eye, how about you?” In addition, it would be the traditional MMA method of setting the argument by fighting a bout that means that it is actually possible.
Edmen Shahbazyan
As the more experienced athlete in this matchup, Paul would face Shahbazyan. At age 25, “The Golden Boy” has amassed a 12-3 record. If Logan Paul enters the octagon, this bout may very well be bet upon. Shahbazyan is the more skilled fighter overall, but Paul has the wrestling, a tool that helped to quell the ascent of “The Golden Boy.”
Meanwhile, Jake Paul already declared that he had signed a multi-fight contract with PFL MMA, and now his brother is considering the UFC as his next destination.
With some real boxing and professional wrestling experience under his name, he has received praise for his excellent performances. Although mixed martial arts is a very different discipline from what Paul has previously encountered, all these reasons support him for a UFC bout.
