Although, Jake Paul followed the same path, after some time he took a break from creating content and started working on his boxing career. Now, he’s fighting at one of the biggest stages in the world and soon will be exchanging blows against the former UFC fighter, Nate Diaz.

After going against KSI‘s younger brother, Deji, in 2018, Jake Paul had an awakening of sorts which made him dedicate his life to boxing. So, he drifted away from his online persona and started organizing events, and currently owns his promotional banner, Most Valuable Promotions. Also, he’s recently signed a deal with an MMA league, PFL, as well. Well, seeing his brother achieving such feats, Logan Paul recently gave his opinions about his brother’s rise.
