LOGAN PAUL has CONFIRMED his boxing return – but has tried to keep his opponent a secret.
The YouTube, crossover boxing and WWE star has not been in the ring since his June 2021 exhibition with Floyd Mayweather.

Paul, 27, took Mayweather, 46, the distance and was due to return to boxing in January.
He was in talks to face 2-0 MMA fighter and online rival Dillon Danis, 29, until a knee injury starring in the WWE ruled him out.
Well now Paul – while on his podcast with Dave Portnoy – revealed his next fight is set in stone.
He said: “I’ve got a new opponent. Not said yet. I’ll tell you and we’ll bleep it.”
Paul then reveals who he will fight, with the sound bleeped, as Portnoy responded: “No s***.”
And Paul replied: “Cool, right? I don’t know what’s going on either.”
Danis, a known troll, attempted to hijack the announcement by tweeting: “He ran from me to go fight 1-5 Darren Till.”
Till, 30, recently hit the headlines after requesting his release from the UFC, having lost his last three fights.

Till himself admitted he would be interested in a switch to the ring against a celebrity star.
And the ex-UFC welterweight revealed he has been contacted by rival promoters after his release.
