Logan Paul, the social media personality and wrestler, finds himself embroiled in controversy after comments regarding his decision to decline a potential fight with boxing icon Mike Tyson. While his brother, Jake Paul, prepares to face Tyson in a bout, Logan’s reasoning for refusing the fight has ignited criticism.
The crux of the issue lies in Logan’s explanation. While the younger Paul gets ready for a boxing bout, the older brother revealed that he passed upon a match against Tyson for this one reason, which is forcing fans to go loose on Paul.
Logan Paul Says Mike Tyson is Too Old and Senile to Fight
The Paul brothers have been no stranger to controversies and somehow are always under some public discussions. Most recently, the older brother, Logan Paul has come under fire for his remarks against one of the greatest boxers of all time, Mike Tyson.
On a recent episode of his podcast Impaulsive, Paul revealed that he was offered a fight against Tyson but Paul declined. He said, “I just think he’s (Mike Tyson) too old…He’s senile”. Further, Paul also claimed that if he had accepted the offer, he would have defeated the 57-year-old boxer past his prime.
These comments did not go unnoticed by the fans who found them to be disrespectful for Tyson. They took to social media to express their anger with one even questioning “How do people watch this scammer” while referring to Paul.

Jake Paul Accuses Logan Paul of Lying in His Comments About Mike Tyson
The recent news of Jake Paul officially going one-on-one against Mike Tyson has kept most of the fans heartbroken. While some are happy to have Tyson back one last time, others believe that the match has the potential to ruin the boxer’s legacy.
Amidst the twists and turns, another shocking development is the discontent between the two Paul brothers. Logan Paul’s recent comments on Impaulsive were not accepted by his younger brother. On an Instagram livestream, Paul said “We’re the ones that brought the deal to Mike Tyson. So, I don’t know why he would say that” referring to Logan Paul.
Logan Paul was not the only personality Jake Paul targeted in his livestream. He also had something to say about his brother’s business personality KSI. Previously, KSI had said that Tyson’s age would be a major factor in Paul’s victory. Replying to this in the stream, Paul said “You wanna know the difference between Mike Tyson and KSI? Mike Tyson will actually fight me.”
