The renowned combat sports journalist has spoken out about the Paul brothers’ shock announcement.
Ariel Helwani has revealed exactly what fans should expect from Logan and Jake Paul’s shock ‘fight’ announcement.
On Tuesday, YouTuber-turned-boxers Logan Paul and Jake Paul made a cryptic announcement on social media, seemingly teasing that the two brothers would be fighting each other in the ring.
Both men took to social media to reveal a poster showing them facing off alongside the HBO Max logo and an announcement of a date, March 27, leading to many fans speculating that the two could finally be settling the question of which Paul brother is the better boxer.
While it has not yet been confirmed exactly what the announcement means, renowned combat sports journalist Helwani has now revealed what he has heard about what the Paul’s are teasing.

Sharing a photo of the poster on their social media, both Logan and Jake teased the potential boxing fight, writing: “The moment you’ve waited a decade for… March 27th on HBO Max.”
But, although he wasn’t able to confirm the exact details of what he knew, Helwani confirmed that Logan and Jake would not be fighting each other in the boxing ring in March.
Speaking on ESPN , the journalist said: “I know what’s being talked about and what’s being announced but I’m not quite in the position to discuss it.”
However, Helwani’s co-host Conner Burks wasn’t shy when sharing his opinion on the announcement, adding: “The fact that it’s on a Thursday, the fact that all it says is HBO Max, there’s no information on where it would take place.
“You’re just going to drop a poster and that’s how you’re going to announce that a boxing fight is happening?
“They’re not fighting. At least not right now, this is not a fight.”

Confirming Burks’ theory, Helwani said: “You laid it out perfectly there, nobody drops something like that, it’s tremendous promotion… for something.”
The news that the Paul brothers will not be meeting in the ring isn’t a shock to many fans, who felt that it would be unlikely for the WWE, who Logan is under contract with, to allow the older Paul brother to fight just weeks before their massive Wrestlemania 41 event.
A report from ESPN has revealed that the two brothers will instead release a reality TV series on March 27, and were just teasing their boxing fight to rile up interest in the show when it launches.
