Logan Paul has been told by his brother Jake he was "played" during negotiations for a fight with Nate Diaz which failed to materialise. Logan's younger sibling ended up landing the pay-per-view bout, telling his brother Diaz and his team felt that the fight carried more legitimacy. Jake is a 5-1 professional boxer with knockout wins over the likes of Tyron Woodley, Anderson Silva and Ben Askren, while his brother has had just one full professional outing, a white collar bout and an exhibition, none of which he won. The brothers are both massive names on
Social Media and in the
boxing world, but Logan has competed infrequently over the years while focusing more on his businesses and
WWE career. Meanwhile, Jake has taken to professional boxing as his full-time
Job, almost completely moving away from his
YouTube days. Jake Paul told by new trainer he should never have fought Tommy Fury Carl Froch accuses Jake Paul of backing out of fight with ex-world champion “I've got to ask you something, dude,” Logan said to Jake during a new episode of his podcast Impaulsive . “I should have asked you off-camera, but we’re here… How did you get the Nate Diaz fight dude? Because I thought I had it locked up. I thought for sure I had it locked up, how did you get it? “You never had it locked up,” Jake laughed in response. “Yeah, I told you [he was playing you]. I told you he was playing both sides. I don’t know if I want to get into it here, but basically some of the people you work with. Like, he doesn’t know what the f*** he was doing.

Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below! "He does and he doesn’t. Just throwing money at someone doesn’t make them want to do it. At the end of the day, what it came down to, honestly. He thought the world would view our fight as more legitimate than him fighting you. Him fighting you, to him, was like a money grab because you haven’t beaten anybody.” Jake Paul and Diaz will fight on August 5 in Dallas,
Texas - and for the first time his brother won't be at the event. Logan will likely be competing at WWE's SummerSlam on the same night in Detroit, but joked that their parents Greg and Pam will pick the younger sibling's show to attend. "Let's be honest, bro, you're going to Jake's fight," Logan said to co-host Mike Majlak when he asked which event he should be attending. "My parents are going to Jake's fight."
