Logan Paul competed in a white-collar boxing match against fellow YouTube megastar KSI in August 2018. The fight ended up being a closely contested one, with the judges’ verdict declaring the fight as a majority draw.

Paul went on to face KSI in a rematch in November 2019. However, this time their fight was a professional boxing bout, rather than a white-collar boxing matchup.

The fight was a back-and-forth affair, during which both Logan Paul and KSI had their moments. Nevertheless, Paul ended up losing the fight via split decision, taking his professional boxing record to 0-1.

Logan Paul is set to face one of the greatest boxers of all time
