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.

And Paul’s next fight is set for Friday, December 15 and will be against another pro boxer with a “winning record”.
Meanwhile, bitter rival KSI, 30, suffered a controversial points loss to Fury, which he has since appealed as he takes time away from boxing.
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.”
