Paul has stated in the past that he would like to play with the Cleveland Browns should he decide to enter the world of NFL. The 25-year-old is certain that his grit and boxing skills will aid him on the football field as well.

During an appearance on Logan Paul's Impaulsive podcast:

"I wanna go to NFL after this. Like legitimately, just to play like safety and just deck people. I swear to God, I'm about to bring hella ratings to whatever team I'm on."

'The Problem Child' added:

"Would you have ever thought that I would play for the Cleveland Browns? No, right? That would be crazy. I could run a 4.34. I have the size, I have the power, I can knock people out with one punch. So why can't I play free safety?"

Jake Paul takes jibe at Conor McGregor; claims he can beat the Irishman with one hand

In a recent Twitter back-and-forth between Jake Paul and Conor McGregor, the YouTuber-turned-boxer has claimed to "knock out" the UFC poster boy in the squared circle using just one hand.

This began when 'The Notorious' tweeted about potentially entering the sport of boxing and asked if there were any championship belts he could win.

In response, 'The Problem Child,' citing the former two-division champion's current UFC fight streak, claimed to be able to defeat McGregor in boxing with just one hand. He also claimed he could beat the UFC superstar in the cage as well.

Jake Paul wrote:

"You fight for belts? Last time you fought for a belt was 4 years ago. Lost 3 of your last 4 fights. I would knock you out in the squared circle with one hand tied behind my back. To be fair, in the cage I would need two hands. But same result."
