2 fights in February Jake Paul vs KSI Logan Paul vs Deji Yall with it?<\/div>\n
Following the news, Paul teased on X that he would be fighting KSI in February.<\/div>\n
It all started when the YouTuber tweeted KSI, suggesting that they fight on July 20 instead.<\/div>\n
He wrote: “KSI’s coach saying he is over 200lbs right now? So no weight excuses”Let’s run it for July 20th and then Paul Tyson in October\/November.”KSI responded, saying he couldn’t fight Paul in July because he already has one lined up in August.”Instead of you fighting an OAP at the end of the year (no one wants to see this) fight me in December instead,” he wrote.Paul responded: “I just gave KSI and his forehead the opportunity again for July. He said he\u2019s fighting in August. Cool. Im fighting in October\/November. February it is, 200 lbs, MSG, NYC.”He later tweeted: “2 fights in February… Jake Paul vs KSI… Logan Paul vs Deji. Yall with it?”KSI doesn’t appear to have responded to the most recent tweet, but UNILAD has reached out to his rep for comment.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Paul vs Tyson was called off after Tyson suffered a medical emergency while he was on a flight from Miami to Los Angeles<\/a> last Saturday.He experienced an ulcer flare-up and began feeling nauseous when the flight was 30 minutes from landing in LA.His representatives subsequently released a statement to ESPN<\/a> confirming the athlete was ‘doing great’ after the scare and that he was “appreciative to the medical staff that were there to help him.”Mike Tyson expressed his gratitude to his fans for their patience: \u201cI want to thank my fans around the world for their support and understanding during this time. Unfortunately, due to my ulcer flareup, I have been advised by my doctor to lighten my training for a few weeks to rest and recover.\u201cMy body is in better overall shape than it has been since the 1990s and I will be back to my full training schedule soon. Jake Paul, this may have bought you some time, but in the end you will still be knocked out and out of boxing for good.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Speaking to Access, the YouTuber said: \u201cI\u2019m a showman, so is Jake, and we had a little rivalry on YouTube that has never been matched and I don\u2019t believe it ever will.\u201cOur diss tracks against each other have like 300 million views, it was like we were the two brothers that despised each other online.\u201cAnd I think we can probably make a similar wave if Jake and I ever fought each other.\u201cI\u2019d go ahead and say Logan Paul versus Jake Paul would be one of the greatest, and biggest and highest grossing pay-per-view combat sports events of all time.”<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
