Logan Paul expresses interest in making his UFC debut on the same card as the highly anticipated showdown between Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg. He has offered to fight on the undercard for free, with all proceeds going to charity.
In recent months, Musk has been training with UFC legend Georges St-Pierre, while Zuckerberg has taken up Brazilian jiu-jitsu under the tutelage of renowned instructor Dave Camarillo. The rivalry between the billionaires has been further fueled by reports of Zuckerberg’s Meta developing a social media platform to directly compete with Musk’s Twitter, which Musk acquired for $44 billion.
Paul already has a potential opponent in mind for his UFC debut. Despite the weight difference, he calls out Paddy Pimblett, a lightweight fighter known as “Paddy the Baddy.” Paul believes Pimblett’s size disadvantage will work in his favor, citing his own experience weighing in at 189.5 pounds for his boxing exhibition against Floyd Mayweather in 2021.
Recognizing the limited fighting skills of Musk and Zuckerberg, Paul suggests that the undercard needs to feature compelling fights to make up for their lack of experience in MMA. While he anticipates the main event to be highly entertaining, he also remarks that watching inexperienced fighters attempt to throw punches will likely be underwhelming, contrasting it with his own first fight experience.
