Logan Paul offers to fight Jake Paul despite their parent’s wishes if Mike Tyson cannot make their bout after the ex-WBC heavyweight champion had to delay their July 20 fight after suffering an ulcer flare up.
Netflix announced that the professional showdown at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, near Dallas, will be moved back despite both preparing intensely, with the event broadcaster looking to announce a new date within the first week of June.

That could mean Paul might look for a new fighter and, in a bit of a curveball, it could actually be his older brother who steps in to do battle against him to end their fraternal rivalry, many years after he took on Floyd Mayweather too.
“So, Mike Tyson’s out,” Logan Paul posted to X.com, formerly Twitter. “I’ll step in, and we can settle this once and for all, @jakepaul.”
But the pair are not just friendly rivals in the sense that most brothers are though, they have actually had a serious argument back when The Maverick and The Problem Child were attempting to establish their media careers.
Then in California, the brothers began to compete for the status as the most successful son as Paul looked to prove himself to his 29-year-old brother, but it turned sour as they released diss tracks against the other.
“In Los Angeles,” Paul told Untold: Jake Paul the Problem Child. “We were more focused on business and making money and growing our brands, and that became a competitive race.
“I wanted to prove to him that I’m legit; I can do this, too. And he wanted to prove to me that I’m the bigger brother, and I’m going to get more followers.”
Neither Paul really wants to fight the other
Of course, as two successful brothers making it in professional sports and content creating, they enjoy an exceptionally close bond and are usually spotted supporting each other at the other’s events.
So, they’ve adopted the Klitschko policy, meaning they don’t want to be in the ring against each other with the risk of dealing serious harm to a person they grew up with and love.
“It’s interestingly enough, I can’t,” Paul told Impaulsive. “I had this like Epiphany where I was like, ‘Why the f*’*k would we ever do this? Like f*ck that?'”
Whilst Logan Paul added, “I had the same epiphany at your age. Yeah, it was. It was so intriguing for so many years because I know how big of a show it would be, but like I got one brother, you know, I don’t want to fight him.”
