Brothers Jake Paul and Logan Paul have sparked speculation about a potential boxing match between them, hinting at the possibility of fighting each other in the ring this March. The siblings, who have previously discussed the idea, took it a step further by sharing a mock fight poster on social media.
Jake Paul posted: “The moment you’ve waited a decade for… March 27th on @StreamOnMax.”
Logan Paul echoed his brother’s message, writing: “The moment you’ve waited a decade for… March 27 on @StreamOnMax.”
HBO Max’s Silence Fuels Skepticism
While the brothers’ social media posts have generated considerable attention, the American streaming service HBO Max has yet to clarify any specifics regarding the event planned for March 27. However, HBO Max did repost the posts made by Logan and Jake, further fueling speculation.
Fans have shown mixed reactions, with many skeptical about the event’s authenticity. One fan tweeted, “Stop f****** trolling.” Another expressed doubt, stating, “No way this is happening.” A third person commented, “They aren’t fighting. Probably just another podcast.” Others have suggested that the event might be a TV show rather than a fight.
Jake Paul and Logan Paul Brothers’ Boxing Journey
Jake and Logan Paul have both enjoyed high-profile careers in boxing, following their rise to fame as content creators. Their boxing journey began in 2018, when Logan fought KSI to a draw in Manchester, while Jake Paul defeated Deji Olatunji on the undercard.
Since then, Logan Paul has shifted his focus to WWE, where he has previously held the United States title. However, he did make a splash in the boxing world in 2021 when he faced off against Floyd Mayweather in an exhibition match that ended in a draw.
On the other hand, Jake Paul has fully committed to boxing over the past five years. With an 11-1 professional record, his only loss came in February 2023 when he faced Tommy Fury in a closely contested split decision. Jake has since rebounded with victories over a number of older MMA fighters and boxers, including Nate Diaz, Mike Perry, Andre August, Ryan Bourland, and even a 58-year-old Mike Tyson in a high-profile bout last November.
After Jake Paul, Logan Offers to Step In for Tyson
Jake Paul’s originally scheduled fight against Mike Tyson in July 2024 was called off due to Tyson’s health issues, including an ulcer flare-up. Logan Paul, ever the showman, offered to step in and fight his brother instead, taking to X (formerly Twitter) to say: “So Mike Tyson’s out? I’ll step in and we can settle this once and for all @jakepaul.”
Jake responded with a playful challenge: “Mum doesn’t want me to KO you but f*** it. Loser has to change their last name. #PaulvsPaul.”
While this confrontation never materialized, it could now become a reality if the recent announcement holds true.
A Fight or Another Promotional Gimmick?
The big question remains: will this fight actually happen? March 27 is also the start of the Sweet 16 in the NCAA men’s basketball tournament, and Max’s parent company, Warner Bros. Discovery, holds broadcasting rights to the event.
For now, it’s unclear if the rumored fight between the brothers is genuine or part of a larger promotional effort. However, what is almost certain is that Jake and Logan Paul have undoubtedly thrown some punches at each other before, and if this fight does take place, it may not be the last time they do.
