LOGAN PAUL claimed KSI hits harder than Floyd Mayweather and the comparison is ‘not even a competition’.
The American first picked up the boxing gloves in 2018 for an exhibition in Manchester with KSI – real name Olajide Olayinka Williams Olatunji.
They ended up drawing before a year later turning pro for their rematch, which was won on split-decision by KSI.
Paul then had two years out of the ring before amazingly returning for a spectacle exhibition bout with boxing legend Mayweather.
And after it went the full eight round distance, the social media sensation technically avoided defeat.
Following 20 rounds between KSI, 28, and Mayweather, 44, Paul, 26, insisted his old YouTube rival punches harder than one of the greatest of all time.
He told True Geordie: “KSI for sure, for sure. Not even a competition. “[Mayweather’s] clean shots, I was like, ‘Cool, good shot.’
“KSI I’m like, ‘Keep my f***ing face away from those hands’.”
BETTING SPECIAL – GET JOSHUA TO WIN IN ROUNDS 1-6 AT 60/1 OR ANYTIME AT 25/1
Mayweather was outweighed by TWO STONE and failed to deliver on the knockout he promised.
Paul was evidently emotional watching back the fight for the first time alongside True Geordie – real name Brian Davis.
He said: “It is hard to put in to words.
“I have been through so much s***, to go from one of the most hated people on the planet to the Mayweather fight it was amazing.
“The journey was insane, it’s my first time watching it as it is so much to process and download.
“I was proud of the fight, but I had to pat myself on the back and be proud of what happened.
“For me this fight was everything, it has set me up for the rest of my life and this was a huge chapter.”
