Mayweather vs Logan Paul: Battle for clout? Jake Paul says brother is a \u201cfake fighter\u201d as bout approaches YouTube: Jake Paul \/ Instagram: Logan PaulYouTube star Logan Paul might have scored the fight of a lifetime after securing a bout with none other than Floyd Mayweather \u2014 but little brother Jake Paul isn\u2019t convinced that he\u2019s throwing down for the right reasons. The Paul brothers are in the midst of a completely unexpected transition from full-time content creators to professional boxers. Ever since Logan threw down with rival influencer KSI in August 2018, they\u2019ve been set on making the sport a career \u2014 but the jury\u2019s still out on if they can make it happen. That being said, they\u2019ve continued to make their mark in the space, with Jake Paul having scored three fights in the interim (all of which he\u2019s convincingly won). Coming fresh off his 2nd Round victory over former NBA pro Nate Robinson, Jake is making his exploits known to the world by calling out every high-profile fighter out there for a potential battle \u2014 but it seems like he isn\u2019t a fan of his brother\u2019s upcoming match against Mayweather. View this post on Instagram In a December 31 interview with TMZ, Jake called his older bro a \u201cfake fighter,\u201d and even claimed that he had taken the match for attention, saying the exhibition is detrimental to the sport of boxing. \u201cMy brother is f**ked,\u201d Jake said of the situation. \u201cIt\u2019s bad for the sport. I think it\u2019s just for clout. You know, my brother\u2019s a fake fighter. I\u2019m the real fighter. He\u2019s 0-1, I\u2019m 3-0.\u201d That being said, he made sure to wish his brother the best, but isn\u2019t convinced that he can go the distance against the 50-0 pro. \u201cBut I wish him the best of luck,\u201d he continued. \u201cDon\u2019t get in there with the guy who\u2019s never even been knocked down. He got knocked down once, and it was by accident.\u201d Jake isn\u2019t the only one who predicts a swift end for Logan; even the legendary Mike Tyson predicted that Mayweather will \u201cbeat his f**kin\u2019 ass\u201d in the ring during a podcast several days prior.
