UFC legend Bruce Buffer believes Logan Paul would draw the same amount of attention as Conor McGregor if he fought in the organisation.
Paul, 27, is a boyhood fan of the UFC and has been teasing a fight in the octagon for several years. 'The Maverick' could be one step closer to making his debut for the promotion as his hydration drink Prime Energy, which he founded alongside KSI, is now an official sponsor of the UFC.
Buffer, who has been the cage announcer for the UFC since 1996, thinks Paul would excel in the octagon because of his athletic background. "I know Logan, he is a friend. He is very capable of fighting in the Octagon. He is an amazing athlete as he is proving with his WWE performances he is doing. "As far as a fighter, his base is wrestling, which is the strongest base in mixed martial arts to come from," Buffer told Express Sport.
