With his fight against Mike Tyson postponed, Jake Paul has been looking for something to do, and it seems that something is thinking of other people he could be fighting.
After Tyson became unwell, his fight against Paul which had previously been set for July 20, was moved back so his pre-fight training wouldn't be too badly disrupted.
Netflix said that Tyson's health scare had 'limited his ability to train fully for the next few weeks', so there won't be a fight between them this summer.

Apparently the end of 2024 is a more likely time for the fight now, so it's still supposed to be going ahead at some point.
While Logan Paul has said he'd be willing to step into the ring with his brother and duke it out as Tyson's replacement, it seems more likely that the fight will be postponed.
Instead, the younger Paul sibling hopped onto social media to suggest a possible fight for February 2025, pitting himself against KSI and his older brother against Deji Olatunji.

This would be a switcheroo of the YouTuber boxing lineup that launched Paul's career in boxing.
Cast your minds back to 2018, when Logan Paul fought KSI in Manchester, and remember that both boxers had their younger brothers facing off on an undercard.
While that first fight was deemed a draw, a professional rematch a year later resulted in a win for KSI over Logan.
Meanwhile, in Manchester, on the undercard, Jake defeated KSI's younger brother Deji.

While Jake Paul asked people 'y'all with it', it seemed as though many were not with it at all.
One said that Logan fighting Deji would be 'not fair at all', and that KSI's younger brother would be 'way too small for Logan'.
"Weight classes don't exist in this guy's head," said another.

See, the Paul brothers have fought as cruiserweights and thus are a weight class above Deji, who was a light heavyweight.
Someone else confidently declared that 'none of what was mentioned in this tweet will happen within the next two years', so it seems like boxing fans aren't really buying this matchup.
Deji did spot that Jake Paul was trying to set up a fight between him and Logan, quoting the post with the eyes emoji.
Meanwhile, KSI gave his own response to Jake Paul's attempts to stoke up a fight.

He said, "You asked for 185, Jake, you fraudulent t**t. The old folks home has run out of options. This is all just noise. You don’t really want to fight.
"December, let’s run it at 185. No bulls**t. No excuses."
