And he was feeling bullish after his performance.
When talking about what’s next on his podcast, Paul said: “Someone mentioned Mike Tyson, like how funny is it? One great at a time. Or is it like you can only fight one?
“My lawyer mentioned it and he was like, ‘No, Tyson will rip your head off, you don’t stand a chance’.
“I’m like bro, I literally just went through all of this, you can’t tell me I can’t beat Mike Tyson. Bro, he’s old, old.”
Paul might be confident, but fans online think that he is barmy.
One wrote: “Logan Paul’s face will be unrecognisable after two rounds with Mike Tyson …”

While another added: “Logan Paul apparently things he can beat Mike Tyson. Possibly he could at draughts, hopscotch or rock, paper, scissors.”
A third joked: “I’ve heard Logan Paul is challenging Mike Tyson to a boxing match this time. So that’s how it feels to be punch drunk.”
Another commented: “Logan paul better make sure he has a good life insurance policy before he steps in the ring with Iron Mike …”
Logan Paul believes he can convince Mike Tyson to hug him for 8 rounds for $10 mil https://t.co/FDvj2o1jU3

So, Logan Paul wants a piece of Mike Tyson. Hmmm May I offer an alternative death wish for Logan to consider? @DeathWishCoffee#loganpaulvsmiketyson??✏️??
Logan Paul is a damn genius. I’m impressed that he may found another opponent I must watch. If he fights Mike Tyson I’m in. Just take my $49.99 right now. https://t.co/eFwBllw8bF
Logan Paul is money chasing. Can’t blame him. But Mike Tyson could turn him into a vegetable. Money M., at 154 pounds, knocked out Paul on his feet and held him up. Tyson would obliterate him. https://t.co/419INL9Bbx
Tyson, 54, was very complimentary after Paul fought Mayweather.
He told him on FaceTime: “You kicked his ass. You’re bad, I was wrong!
“I’m proud of you, you kicked ass, I’m proud of you. Everybody’s talking about you, you’re the man.
“You went eight rounds with the greatest of all times, I was telling people they don’t want to try that s***. You got him with those punches.”
