Andrew Tate has invited Logan Paul to Romania to settle their beef - and has vowed to "destroy" the YouTuber.
Controversial ex-kickboxer Tate has been flirting with a return to the ring having called out several internet personalities including Paul, his younger brother Jake and British star KSI. Paul has flip-flopped over whether he is willing to meet Tate in the ring but recently suggested an MMA fight instead.
"I have a solution, why don't we do something that neither of us have done? An MMA fight between me and Tate in the UFC. Me vs Tate in the octagon. I am giving him options," Paul said. Tate has now confirmed his interest and is ready to open talks.
"Nothing is more important to Logan Paul than being liked and being talked about. He fears and walks away from any real challenge and continues to play fight in the WWE," he said. Logan keeps using my name for headlines to try and further his relevancy; however, he knows that my skills and expertise in any ring are unmatched by him.
"His brother, Jake, even though we haven’t always seen eye to eye, has been changing the boxing industry for the better. Better pay, better benefits, more awareness for women in the sport and he puts in the work. He has a purpose which he is fulfilling. Logan Paul has no purpose.
"If the terms are fair to both parties, I will fight Logan in the cage and destroy him. I have already contacted and confirmed this to a mutual contact. It is time for Logan to pay the price. I will not allow him to earn more money than me for his destruction, as a clown like him, with a mediocre online income, would happily sacrifice his pride for money.

"I promised I would fight him for free, and I meant it. He can fly to Romania and knock on my door any day of the week. When I said fight, I didn't mean sport. If he recovers, he can continue to live in his brother's shadow where he belongs.”
Paul is due to return to the ring in January on the same card as rival turned business partner KSI. He has not fought since he took Floyd Mayweather the eight-round distance in their exhibition bout last summer but will take on Roman Reigns at WWE Crown Jewell in Saudi Arabia this weekend.
