Jake Paul ranks brother Logan as No.1 YouTube boxer despite never winning fight

Jake Paul has ranked his brother Logan as the top YouTube boxer despite him not ever winning a fight.

Logan has three fights under his belt and is yet to have his hand raised in the ring, but Jake has placed him above YouTube boxers such as Salt Papi and KSI in his top-five list. Jake's had Logan in the top spot, followed by his bitter rival KSI, Papi in third, Slim Albaher at number four with AnEsonGib coming in at fifth.

The first time Logan stepped foot in the ring was in August 2018, as he fought to a majority draw against KSI in their white-collar debuts. Jake was also in action against KSI's brother Deji, as 'The Problem Child' kickstarted his boxing career by stoppIng his fellow content creator in the fifth round. Logan lost to KSI in their rematch the following year, with the fight selling a massive two million pay-per-view buys.

Logan stepped away from boxing for two years but returned in June 2021 to face Floyd Mayweather in an eight-round exhibition fight. 'The Maverick' managed to survive against arguably the greatest boxer of all time in Mayweather, with no official winner being announced in the un-scored fight. Logan was expected to make his boxing return at a Misfits event last month, but a knee injury prevented him from doing so.

Jake is expected to face KSI at the end of this year if he can get past Love Island star Tommy Fury on February 26th in Saudi Arabia. KSI didn't fight for over three years but made his return to the ring last August with a farcical 'two fights in one event, both of which he won by knockout but the fights didn't go on his professional record.

'The Nightmare' made a quick turnaround after his two wins as he knocked out FaZe Temperr in the first round last month. Papi was also on the card as he impressively knocked out Josh Brueckner whilst Albaher won a decision against popular UK DJ Tom Zanetti.

AnEsonGib lost to Jake in 2020 and took almost three years away from the ring, but returned last September to knockout Austin McBroom. The fight marked the start of Jake's professional career and the 26-year-old has since gone unbeaten in six fights, winning a decision against UFC legend Anderson Silva in his last outing.
