Roy Jones Jr desires to fight Logan Paul<\/h2>\n

After being asked by NBA legend Shaquille O\u2019Neal to fight Logan Paul, legendary boxer Roy Jones Jr has claimed that he could be willing to fight the YouTuber and WWE star. That is despite an enormous experience gap and there being 26 years between the 2.<\/p>\n

During a recent podcast appearance, Jones said: \u201cAnyone should have did something crazy because I got a text from the large fella the opposite day and it said \u2018Roy I want you to do something\u2019. I said \u2018what\u2019s that?\u2019 He said \u2018go on the market and whip Logan Paul.<\/p>\n

\u201cI said \u2018Logan Paul wants this pressure?\u2019 He said \u2018I believe so, I believe I want to see you set those hands on him. I want to see you come back yet another time. I said \u2018big fella, if you happen to of all people say that, I want to take into consideration that.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf Shaq say \u2018go whoop anyone, that\u2019s my dog and it\u2019s hard for me to only ignore that, you hear me? So I got to go look over it and see what Logan Paul is talkin\u2019 about. If Shaq said to go whoop his behind then he should have said or did something where he needs a behind whipping.\u201d<\/p>\n

O\u2019Neal reposted a clip with the caption: \u201c@loganpaul don\u2019t be scared now @royjonesjrofficial ready for you. Don\u2019t talk us to death give the people what they need.\u201d<\/p>\n
