Jake Paul has made some very surprising comments about his brother Logan’s upcoming exhibition bout with boxing legend Floyd Mayweather Jr.<\/p>\n
The Paul brothers, both YouTube stars, have risen to prominence inside the combat sports bubble after a series of high-profile boxing matches with other celebrities.<\/p>\n
The trend will continue on February 20, when Logan, the older of the two, takes on unbeaten boxing legend Floyd Mayweather Jr. in a controversial exhibition fight.<\/p>\n
Speaking to TMZ<\/a> this week, Jake opened up on his brother’s upcoming showdown with Mayweather. Surprisingly, he doesn’t seem to be a fan of the matchup, and sees it ending in disaster for his brother.<\/p>\n “My brother’s f***ed,” Jake said of his brother’s fight with Mayweather. “It’s bad for the sport. I think it’s just for clout.”<\/p>\n Some readers will likely question how Jake’s boxing matches\u2014the most recent being a knockout of former NBA star Nate Robinson\u2014are any better for boxing than Logan’s fight with Mayweather.<\/p>\n Jake, however, seems to consider himself a more legitimate boxer than his brother.<\/p>\n “My brother’s a fake fighter,” he said. “I’m the real fighter. He’s 0-1-1, I’m 3-0.<\/p>\n “I wish him the best of luck. It’s just like…don’t get in there with a guy who’s never even been knocked down. He’s been knocked down once and it was by accident.”<\/p>\n Whether it’s true that Jake is a “real fighter” or not, his decision to leave his Calabasas mansion<\/a> to dedicate his entire waking focus to his boxing career certainly speaks to his dedication to the sport.<\/p>\n YouTube star @jakepaul<\/a> has announced today that he is leaving his multi-million dollar California mansion in an effort to alleviate distractions on his path to become “one of the biggest boxers in the world”.<\/p>\n He is currently in talks to box @Benaskren<\/a> on March 28th.<\/p>\n \u2014 Donagh Corby (@DonaghCorby_) December 30, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
