LOGAN PAUL has compared his brother Jake to Muhammad Ali and Mike Tyson after he KNOCKED OUT Tyron Woodley.
Jake Paul, 24, defeated the former UFC world champion for a second time on December 18, leaving Woodley laid out on the canvas.
The Youtuber now boasts a 5-0 professional boxing record and has amassed a huge fortune from his fights.
That led elder brother Logan, who fought Floyd Mayweather earlier this year, to sing the praises of his sibling.
Logan said on his IMPAULSIVE podcast: “You know what they’ve been saying?
“They’ve been saying this: our great grandparents had Muhammad Ali, our parents had Mike Tyson, and we have Jake Paul.”
Jake Paul has said similar in the past, declaring himself as the no 1 fighter of the younger generation, following in the footsteps of Ali and Mayweather.
And he has one interesting similarity with Ali – the pair shared the same birthday, January 17.

In response to Logan bigging him up Jake said: “When I sat with Mike Tyson on his podcast, bro, he’s so smart and wise and he was sitting next to me for like 20 minutes just preaching knowledge.
“And he goes, ‘Bro, you’re the GOAT, January 17th people are not to be messed with.’ When I told him my birthday, he was like, ‘Oh my god.’”
Despite Tyson’s praise Jake Paul has a very long way to go to cement his boxing legacy.
Next up for Paul could be Tommy Fury after the Brit withdrew from their scheduled fight due to illness and injury earlier this month.
Fury’s promoter Frank Warren is aiming to pencil in a date for a bout in early 2022 but Paul has refused to commit to a fight after his latest win.
