Logan Paul Stirs up Fresh Controversy After Comparisons to NFL Legend Tom Brady Backfires Severely
This article was originally published on Total Pro Sports.

Athletes often claim superiority, as they train hard to prove it. However, Logan Paul has now found himself at the center of a heated debate, and this time, Paul is trash-talking with NFL legend Tom Brady over superior athleticism. The famous YouTuber turned boxer claims he is more athletic than the seven-time Super Bowl champion across almost every sport imaginable.
Both superstars are set to face each other on March 21 on a football field for the Fanatics Flag Football Classic. It started with the 48-year-old calling Paul a “good athlete” but describing his WWE skills as “very cute.” The 30-year-old didn’t take that lightly, and on today’s episode of the Impaulsive podcast, Paul fired back and said:
“If you put me and Tom Brady up against each other. I believe I would be more athletic than him in most sports.”

He fired back by saying that in many ways, football is also “cute,” arguing that if most NFL or NBA players stepped into a boxing ring, they would get beaten by real fighters. Now, fans are more excited about their football match, as this back-and-forth has caught their attention.

The tension began when Logan Paul started comparing his athleticism to that of elite NFL players and even claimed he was at the highest level. The famous YouTuber compared himself to stars like Saquon Barkley. And Brady responded bluntly, saying those players are “on another level.” He also called Paul a “good athlete” and said WWE is “very cute.”

I do think @loganpaul has the right attitude and the effort will be…

That “cute” comment is what really sparked the online rivalry. The 30-year-old took it as a slight and fired back, while the 48-year-old later reacted on X, saying the exchange left him annoyed. Now, with the Fanatics Flag Football Classic approaching, what started as playful banter has turned into a genuine competitive storyline.
