Logan Paul admits Jake Paul\u2019s next fight is a huge risk YouTube: ImpaulsiveLogan Paul doesn\u2019t seem all too thrilled with his brother Jake Paul\u2019s next boxing contest. Set to throw down with 1-01 boxer Andre August on a free broadcast, Logan admits it\u2019s a risky fight, one that could derail Jake\u2019s bigger plans in the sport moving forward. The Paul brothers have seen their fair share of ups and downs inside the boxing ring. While Logan is back on track coming off a win over internet troll Dillon Danis, Jake on the other hand, is looking to regain some momentum. Following his first defeat at the hands of Tommy Fury, the younger Paul brother rebounded with a win over MMA icon Nate Diaz, though it wasn\u2019t his flashiest performance. Now, shifting his sights to target a \u2018real boxer\u2019 after years of hearing the request from fans and haters alike, he\u2019s finally got a date with a new opponent. Closing out the year with a non-PPV boxing contest, Paul returns to the ring against 10-1 Andre August on December 15. While not exactly a mainstream celebrity like many former rivals, August is a credible threat with five knockouts to his name, and an opponent Logan isn\u2019t all too thrilled about. \u201cJake Paul\u2026fighting a guy, December 15,\u201d Logan said near the end of the latest Impaulsive podcast, struggling to remember August\u2019s name. As a \u201cnon-PPV\u201d fight, the event will be streamed live on DAZN for anyone to watch for free, a notable pivot from every other Paul bros. fight to date. Thus, without the financial incentive of PPV points on the line, it\u2019s more about \u2018building his resume,\u2019 as Logan explained. \u201c[Jake] wants to really be a boxer. So he\u2019s fighting a real boxer. He\u2019s 10-1, he\u2019s a beast, he hits hard, he\u2019s fast.\u201d While appreciating the challenge ahead, risking his hype in the influencer boxing realm against a relatively unknown prospect isn\u2019t something Logan is fully onboard with. \u201cI get what Jake\u2019s doing, but\u2026 you\u2019ve gotta win,\u201d he continued. \u201cIf this no-name comes in and starts f***ing up your record, what you\u2019re trying to build for the rest of your life, for free, on a free fight, I don\u2019t like the optics of that.\u201d Logan Paul discusses Jake Paul\u2019s next fight at the 1:25:06 mark below. Despite his qualms, the fight is clearly still going ahead, with tickets now on sale for those wishing to attend in Orlando Florida. Having been competing since 2013, August is currently ranked among the top 50 active cruiserweights on BoxRec.
