Since then, negotiations related to the coveted Jake vs. KSI encounter have fallen flat several times. A recent X update from @IfnBoxing showcased Logan echoing Jake’s stance on IMPAULSIVE, as he mentioned that the weight class still stands as a hard-to-negotiate factor related to the fight.
However, the former WWE United States champion also mentioned that Jake was more eager to take on regular boxers instead of social media influencer-boxers like KSI:

“I’m trying so hard [to make the Jake vs. KSI fight], but there’s a weight problem at the moment. Jake’s technically the fat guy… [Also] he genuinely believes that he’s above influencer boxing, and he, like you, classifies KSI still in influencer boxing.”
Logan Paul has also been challenged to a wrestling showdown by an influencer
The combat sports community has often witnessed noteworthy celebrities making appearances at the WWE. Several renowned online personas like IShowSpeed have also graced the platform in the recent past. Meanwhile, Logan Paul was also challenged by an online celebrity to a wrestling match in the WWE.
The aforementioned X update from @IfnBoxing showcased a section of Paul’s IMPAULSIVE podcast where he hosted the 5.3 million subscriber-boasting British YouTuber, Joe Weller. It was none other than Weller who teased a match against Paul at Wrestlemania, saying:
“I love wrestling man, I’d love to be in your [Logan’s] position. I’m definitely not as popping as you are right now – there’s Speed, Kai Cenat and you in WWE out of the influencer world. Logan Paul vs. Joe Weller at WrestleMania, it’s happening. I’ll see you in the ring, I’m cashing in the Money in the Bank”. [H/T RSN]
