Messi's personal bodyguard openly challenged his opponent, Logan Paul quickly ran away

"Listen Logan (Paul), I made this video because a lot of people stopped me on the street and I also got a lot of messages and comments on Instagram saying this fight. Come fight me for everyone. Do it," said Yassine Cheuko, confirming his response a few weeks ago that he agreed to fight Logan Paul to defend Messi.

"Fight me, a boxer, instead of fighting someone who is just a football player. Messi doesn't even know who Logan Paul is," Yassine Cheuko added.

Yassine Cheuko is a former mixed martial artist and former US Navy SEAL. This bodyguard was hired by David Beckham, President and co-owner of Inter Miami, to be Messi's personal bodyguard since the famous player joined his team in July 2023. It is said that David Beckham paid Yassine Cheuko between $2 and $3.5 million per year just to protect Messi at every Inter Miami match.

Messi and Logan Paul recently had a legal dispute over the trademark of a sports drink they produce and distribute, which is very popular in the US.

Messi initially sued Logan Paul, but the boxer and social media star then countersued the Argentine. A court in New York City (USA) has been handling the case since October last year, but there has been no final verdict yet.

Recently, Logan Paul challenged Messi to fight him and he would drop the lawsuit. However, Messi has remained silent and has not made any moves regarding the current dispute.

Instead, the famous player's personal bodyguard, Yassine Cheuko, said he was ready to replace his client to fight Logan Paul, a famous boxer and wrestler at WWE events in the US.

After Yassine Cheuko's public challenge posted on his Instagram account recently, Logan Paul responded rather weakly, claiming that he was only challenging Messi, who is involved in the legal dispute between the two sides.

Also in the video posted by Yassine Cheuko, Logan Paul responded: "Dude, I thought you were cooking." "Why? Are you scared? Are you giving up?", Yassine Cheuko immediately replied.

Logan Paul then made an official video posted on YouTube and TikTok, saying somewhat weakly: "Yassine Cheuko is not eligible to fight me. Only Messi. If Yassine Cheuko wants to fight me, come to Puerto Rico, I'm here. Messi will lose the lawsuit. He can also lose his bodyguard. Why would you hire someone like that to fight a YouTuber? He will lose everything but the World Cup."
