Inside Jake Paul's 'insane' plan to become boxing world champion as brother Logan 'guarantees' huge Canelo Alvarez fight | The Sun

LOGAN PAUL revealed his brother Jake's "insane" plan of becoming boxing world champion and fighting Canelo Alvarez.

Jake left behind a world of content creation to focus fully on his prizefighting career, currently standing 7-1 since his 2020 debut.


But the YouTuber-turned boxer is adamant he will both challenge for championship honours and share the ring with Mexican great Canelo.

Logan said on his podcast with guest KSI: "I'm telling you, Jake is devoting his life to boxing.

"He's talking about becoming a world champion three years from now and he's doing it."

KSI, 30, replied: Talking about Canelo."

Logan, 28, responded: "That's his plan, dude. It sounds insane and then all of a sudden one day, I guarantee, Jake will be fighting Canelo."

Jake, 26, went on a run of beating stars of the social media, sport and MMA world until facing Tommy Fury, 24, in February.

It was the first time he stepped up against a traditional professional boxer and marked his only defeat so far.

The American did return to victory in August beating MMA veteran Nate Diaz, 38, over ten rounds.

It leaves a blockbuster grudge bout with Jake up in the air after Logan pressed him on the fight.

KSI said: "I think for right now, I'm just kind of enjoying myself. But we'll see."
