Logan Paul and Lionel Messi's bodyguard, Yassine Cheuko, are caught up in a war of words that might lead to a fight. The conflict started because of a legal issue about energy drinks involving Messi and Paul.
The Paul brothers have a history of stirring up controversy to make money. The entertainment world often rewards this kind of behavior with profitable shows, no matter what the content is.
Logan Paul kicked things off by challenging Messi to a fight. Yassine Cheuko, who used to be in the US Army, stepped in and responded:
"Listen Logan, I make this video because a lot of people have stopped me in the streets and I have received many messages and comments on Instagram about this fight. Let's make the fight for the people. Let's do it"
Paul tried to back out, saying he's too busy as a WWE superstar. But Cheuko wasn't having it. He kept pushing for the boxing match to happen, calling Paul out on social media with messages like "Lolo, the king of excuses..." and hashtags such as "#signthecontractlolo" and "#stopexecuses".
Paul fired back:
"You're Messi's bodyguard; that's crazy, brother. You make a lot of money, but apparently not enough because you want to do that big fight that I don't give a damn about doing, because I'm a WWE superstar who found his calling in life (...) If you want to come see me in your spare time, we're in Puerto Rico, let's do it bare-knuckle and without a mouth guard. Come and fight me; if not, shut your mouth, scammer"
Cheuko wasn't impressed and responded:
"Hey, Lolo, you look so handsome with your blond hair. Why are you getting nervous? Stop dramatizing. So now you're looking for another excuse. Last time you said you were a WWE superstar, and now you're telling me to go to Puerto Rico to fight in the streets, without gloves, without a mouth guard. You know we can't do that"
The back-and-forth continues to heat up. Will these two actually fight? What will Logan Paul say next? We'll have to wait and see how this drama unfolds.
