Boxing Star Shawn Porter Impressed W/ Logan Paul’s Skills, Keep On Fighting!!

“I hope this reaches Logan Paul. You looked good [Sunday] night! You looked really in control and you look like you could do some things in this sport.”

That’s Shawn Porter — former 2x welterweight world champion — cosigning Logan’s career as a pugilist … telling the YouTube star to KEEP BOXING!!

TMZ Sports talked to 33-year-old Porter about Paul following his 8-round exhibition fight vs. Floyd Mayweather last weekend … and the boxing star had a message for Maverick.

“You have a built-in audience! You can make this money fighting this completion, build yourself up and then when the time is right, you say, ‘Yo I’m ready for a world championship title’ and I think by then, everybody that has rocked with him to this point will continue to rock with him.”

Porter continued … “He’ll pull fans from the boxing arena and boom, you can’t be mad at dude after that! You can’t be mad at the money-making after that!”

Speaking of money, Logan previously told us he expected to make at least $20 million for the Mayweather fight.

That pissed off some star fighters (see Francis Ngannou) … so we asked Shawn if he was upset inferior fighters were making BANK.

“You can’t be mad at the hustle! I cannot knock the hustle! I’m happy for them dudes, I’m happy for them to get the money the way they’ve been getting it.”
