LOGAN PAUL has announced his retirement from boxing to focus on WWE.
The YouTube sensation recently won his first bout in the boxing ring, beating online rival and jiu jitsu champion Dillon Danis.
And only a month later, he defeated WWE icon Rey Mysterio to win the United States Championship.
The winning streak has left Paul with a decision on how he will commit his future.
And he told Fox Business: “I think I’m retired from boxing.
“I’ve done enough going fully undefeated at 25-0. I’m going to be a wrestler now.

“No more money in boxing, every company is going broke. Full-time wrestler. Beat Rey Mysterio. Fair and square for the US Championship.
“It feels great. It was a dominant performance. Some frog splashes, some punches, it feels good.”
Paul, 28, first stepped into boxing in 2018 and drew against KSI, 30, only to lose the rematch a year later when they turned professional.
The pair are now friends and business partners following the launch of their Prime hydration drink.

Paul also faced boxing legend Floyd Mayweather, 46, in a 2021 exhibition and beat Danis, 30, over six rounds.
But his future looks to be in the WWE after beating Mysterio at the Crown Jewel pay-per-view event for the US title.
Despite Paul’s boxing future looking in doubt, he has no shortage of challengers in the WWE.
He said: “I have to defend this belt. There are going to be people coming after me. Seth Rollins, LA Knight, Cody Rhodes.
“Whoever wants it, they can come get it. Mr. Bad Bunny. Whoever wants it can come get it. I have stuff to do in WWE.”
