Jake Paul reveals his upcoming opponent his brother Logan Paul. Sort of.
Jake Paul versus Logan Paul?
The Paul brothers made a joint announcement on social media on Tuesday, calling it, “The moment you’ve been anticipating for ten years.”
However, there is growing speculation — and valid reasons to think — that this won’t be a traditional boxing match.
Their post on X, previously known as Twitter, reveals the event is set to stream on March 27 via Max.
Further details are expected to be released on Thursday, which should help clarify what this event really is.
Notably, the fight isn’t recorded on BoxRec, the platform that tracks sanctioned professional and amateur bouts — a site that does not include exhibitions.
The potential matchup between Logan Paul and Conor McGregor has yet to happen, and Jake Paul has not revealed his next fight since his unanimous decision victory over Mike Tyson on November 15.
It will be challenging to surpass the impressive figures from Paul’s previous fight with Tyson. That event took place in front of 72,300 spectators at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, bringing in over $18 million at the live gate — more than any other boxing match in the U.S. outside of Nevada, according to Most Valuable Promotions, a company established by Paul.
Netflix reported that the broadcast of the fight reached a peak of 65 million simultaneous livestreams, with 38 million occurring in the United States.
