“At first, I was sort of like whoa are you serious? And I wanted to talk s*** about it. I think I was jealous maybe of Logan getting a massive fight. And my first initial reaction was, ‘ah, this shouldn’t happen’ and then I sort of realized like, no this is monumental and no matter what, Logan wins,” said Jake Paul.
As of now, ‘The Problem Child’ believes Logan Paul is in a win-win situation, irrespective of the result. Coming off from an Internet career, the YouTube star is on the brink of fighting an undefeated five-division champion. This will work wonders for his name in the boxing world.
He added, “The outcome of the fight doesn’t matter, Logan wins in that situation. I think it took me a second to realize that and realize where he was coming from and taking that fight. And it just shows the power of the platform that we both have created.”
