Jake Paul did what many people thought he wouldn’t after he secured a career-defining victory over boxing legend Mike Tyson.
Paul cemented his status as a serious contender in the sport. It was a night that should’ve been about him, but his brother messed that up with his behavior.
Logan Paul, Jake’s older brother and a WWE star, found himself at the center of an unintended controversy.
While standing behind Jake during the post-fight interviews, Logan’s actions quickly became the talk of the internet because he simply couldn’t contain his overexcitement.
As the scores were being announced, Logan started spraying a can of body spray on his brother. In the midst of doing that, Logan knocked Jake paul’sPaul’s hat off, prompting some on social media to claim he was trying to upstage his sibling.
Logan calmed those fears when he took to Instagram to deny those claims and issue an apology.
“I was just trying to help Jake promote his W body spray,” Logan said. “My enthusiasm and my poor motor skills got the best of me. I knocked his hat off from the back, it fell to the floor, I felt so stupid. Jake, I’m sorry I ruined one of the biggest moments of your life, but guess what, buddy? You smelled great, thanks to me.”
