Jake Paul exposes Logan Paul for lying about being offered the fight against Mike Tyson

The upcoming fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson has garnered a lot of criticism ever since it was announced.

During a recent episode of his podcast, ‘Maverick’ even claimed that he was offered the fight against Tyson but declined the offer.

Addressing the same during a live stream with internet personality Adin Ross, Paul claimed that his brother wasn’t offered the fight. While suggesting that he lied about the situation, ‘The Problem Child’ said:

No. ‘Cause we’re the ones that brought the deal to Mike Tyson. I don’t know why he [Logan Paul] would say that. Me, and Most Valuable Promotions, and my partner Nakisa [Bidarian] struck a deal with Netflix and then went to other fighters to try to get them involved. At the start, it was Tommy Fury. He wanted more money. There wasn’t more money. So, and then, we went to Mike Tyson. And after months of talking, got him to be down to fight. And so, Mike Tyson wasn’t offering him a deal. So, I don’t know what he’s talking about.”

That said, it’s hard to understand why Logan Paul would lie about the situation. Regardless, the fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson will certainly attract a lot of eyeballs and it will be an interesting watch.
