Since winning the WWE United States Championship from Rey Mysterio last fall, Logan Paul has feuded with Kevin Owens, competing in singles action as part of Elimination Chamber, and also competing against Owens and Randy Orton. They also faced each other at WrestleMania, which they defeated. With 3-way action. Even with the win, Paul came to realize how much effort he put into fighting Owens.

The day before he defeated Orton, Paul appeared on “The Pat McAfee Show” and talked about his feud with Owens, his current run in WWE, and how Owens compares to his past career boxing. During that discussion, Paul was asked what was more difficult. He may also step into the ring with Owens and boxing legend Floyd Mayweather, whom Paul fought to a draw in June 2021.
“I can't believe I'm saying this now…fighting Kevin Owens was harder than fighting Floyd Mayweather,” Paul said. “Let me tell you something: Wrestling is the hardest thing I've ever done in my life. There's no industry that requires as many skill sets at once as WWE does. It's crazy. You… Do you know how much work you have to do?’ Think about when you step into the ring.

“I've said this a thousand times, but when you're boxing, you're concerned about one person. You're concerned about the guy across from you. When you're wrestling, you're concerned about one person. , I'm concerned about the 60,000 people in the arena, and it's my job to make sure they get their money's worth. I take that very seriously. I'm a lab guy and I want to see if you guys get your money's worth on Sunday.''
