Oh boy, Jake Paul just couldn't live with his brother Logan Paul being the center of attention. So he had to go to comically absurd heights to steer the focus momentarily back on him. We're talking unbelievably dumb heights. The dude's lucky he didn't get seriously messed up.
At a news conference for the highly anticipated fight between boxing Hall of Famer Floyd Mayweather and provocative internet personality Logan Paul, the YouTuber's brother Jake Paul confronted the former world champ, snatched his hat and ran away yelling 'gotcha hat!' Within seconds, Mayweather and his bodyguards were on top of Jake, as expected. Jake later uploaded an edited TikTok of the altercation with the caption 'went as planned' and proceeded to troll Mayweather online. Whether this was all a planned stunt to hype the coming fight (not that they really need it) or Jake Paul has some sort of death wish, the brief brawl ignited an unstoppable wave of hot takes and memes. Keep scrolling for clips of the confrontation and amusing Twitter reactions.
It's been a big month for bizarre boxing news. Just a week after Jake Paul KO'd Nate Robinson, it seems his brother Logan will be entering the ring to face Floyd Mayweather Jr. in what can only be described as another drop in the weird as hell 2020 bucket. The fight, which is scheduled for February 20th, is causing quite the stir online. While many people believe Mayweather's legendary boxing career gives him a clear advantage, Logan Paul's sheer size is causing other internet speculators to think the fight may end in an upset. While surprises are undoubtedly entertaining, we must admit that giving Logan Paul an unnecessary ego boost would be a devastating mistake. The internet seems to agree, and has been offering up some very spicy memes and hot takes in response. It's just too bad that we have to wait almost three months for a delightful or depressing conclusion.

Imagine how frustrated and utterly exhausted the other guy must've been. He might as well have thrown in the towel after not being able to land all those punches.
