Logan Paul reacts to challenge from Lionel Messi’s bodyguard, reveals stakes for potential fight
Logan Paul will fight Lionel Messi’s bodyguard, but it will be on his terms.
Yassine Chueko recently posted a video on Instagram challenging Paul to a fight. The current WWE star gave a response on his YouTube channel late Wednesday night.
“Tell him to get in line, bro,” Paul said. “It’s an MMA guy who thinks he can box, who thinks he’s entitled to victory or attention because he’s Messi’s bodyguard.
“I’ve offered to fly people out before, he doesn’t even deserve a fly out.”
There’s a bit of history between the two camps as the soccer star’s drink brand Más+ filed a lawsuit against Paul’s drink brand PRIME for “anti-competitive” behavior, to which PRIME filed a countersuit.
As the legal system will declare a winner of one battle, Paul says if Chueko really wants to fight, he’s not hard to find — but there are stakes attached to it.
“It’s like, bro, I’m here in Puerto Rico, if you want to pull up on me in Puerto Rico, you’re more than welcome, bro,” Paul said. “When I beat your ass, and it’s a big when, not if, when I beat your ass, you’ve got to drink PRIME. You’ve got to drink PRIME, bro.
“I really would start to feel bad for Messi because he’s going to lose this lawsuit, he’s probably going to lose his bodyguard, because why the f*ck would you hire a bodyguard if you get beat up my a YouTuber. The man is just losing everything — except the World Cup. Respect.”
