The matchup between ‘Problem Child’ Jake Paul and Nate Diaz saw plentiful of action last night. The two entered the ring to finally give a befitting showdown to their long-standing rivalry. Paul who came to redeem himself from his previous loss given to him by Tommy Fury went home doing just that. But Jake was not the only Paul brother who made headlines last night. Logan Paul too contributed to the news cycle.

Paul entered the ring with all he had to finally give meaning to his aggression against Nate Diaz, so much so, that he even knocked him down in the fifth round. However, a resilient Nate Diaz stood his ground and defended his stance with the panache that he brought in. In the end, as the judges ruled in favor of Jake, Nate went home disappointed but not dismissed.

This was not all the action that ensued in the boxing arena last night. Amidst the interesting bout taking place in the ring, there was also a brawl by its side. And it seems like Jake Paul’s brother might have heralded it.

A brawl by the ring, Logan Paul might be the reason

Though it was Jake’s night, Logan Paul made sure his presence was felt in the arena in Dallas, Texas. As he stood by the ring very closely to observe his brother’s fight against Nate Diaz, he seemed to scuffle with a fan. It is unclear what actually instigated the brawl, but the video shows Logan initially pushing a man down, which perhaps lead to the brawl breaking out. Paul was soon separated from the volatile situation as his security chimed in. However, folks on the internet have now processed the situation to only take shots at the wrestler.

ItsMeJames called Logan out for the fight. The user said that it might have been someone that the fighter once reportedly scammed. A reference to the CrytpoZoo scandal that panned out.
