Over the past few years, the Paul brothers have taken over the combat world! While Jake Paul is fighting big names in boxing, Logan Paul is squaring off against WWE legends. So, for an outsider looking in, differentiating between these two brothers can get difficult. In a similar situation, popular Twitch streamer IShowSpeed mistook Logon Paul for Jake Paul.
Jake Paul is about to enter the ring against Mike Tyson on July 20 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, something even the streamer has heard about. So, in a clip shared on social media yesterday by Happy Punch, Speed can be seen congratulating the wrong brother for the highly discussed bout—that too when Logan is recovering from an RKO from Randy Ortan.
Turning to X (formerly Twitter), Happy Punch wrote, “Congrats on that Mike Tyson fight” while sharing the clip. Meanwhile, in the clip, Speed can be seen meeting Logan as he hugs Paul and says, “Congrats on that Mike Tyson fight, Jake.” Hearing this, Paul was left with a lack of words, possibly wondering why Speed thought he was Jake.
In hindsight, it’s not too difficult to understand why someone may mistake the two brothers for each other, even though they are immensely popular. Both the Paul brothers are highly successful; they are both in combat sports, and they even have their own podcasts. So, it’s entirely plausible that Speed was pulling a prank on Logan, but the opposite could also be plausible.

However, in recent times, even the Paul brothers have found themselves in opposite corners.
Days after the Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul fight was announced to the masses, Logan Paul took to his popular podcast, Impaulsive, suggesting that he was offered to fight Mike Tyson first. However, he declined the offer because Tyson was old and he wasn’t offered enough money for the fight. As one would guess, this didn’t sit well with Jake.
Unlucky for Logan, Jake Paul was in a livestream with Adin Ross on the same day when the podcast was shared on YouTube. So, to create some drama, Ross probed Jake about Logan’s claim about being offered the Tyson fight first. On that note, Paul said, “I don’t know why he would say that, like me and most valuable promotions and my partner Nikisa struck a deal with Netflix… Mike Tyson wasn’t offering people deals, so I don’t know what he’s talking about,” said Jake.
With that said, Speed thinking Logan Paul was Jake Paul might not have been a mistake at all. On the other hand, Speed could be taking a sly dig at the older Paul brother. However, that’s for you to judge. What did you think about the clip?
