Logan Paul has a lot of belief in his brother, but he wasn\u2019t shocked by the ending of last Friday\u2019s boxing match.<\/p>\n

The December 19 Netflix boxing spectacle saw Jake Paul get knocked out by Anthony Joshua in the sixth round of their fight. Appearing on ESPN\u2019s First Take, Logan reacted to the result and admitted that it was the logical conclusion, though Jake\u2019s self-belief did make Logan feel he could upset the former heavyweight champion.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom strictly a logical point of view, I actually think it went down exactly as it was supposed to. I\u2019m not sure anyone really thought that Jake was going to beat Anthony Joshua,\u201d Logan said. \u201cBut you have to understand, being his brother and in his close circle, he has this conviction that makes you believe. And he has this ability to defy reality and morph it into his vision of how it will transpire that makes you think he\u2019ll win.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut this [is] my opinion \u2014 this was a logical conclusion to the fight. The two-time Olympian broke the influencer boxer\u2019s jaw. Like, okay, you know, we could have wrote it in a story and it would have made sense. That said, I think he did amazing. I\u2019m incredibly proud of him. I think it was a net positive. I think the world can see now how tough Jake Paul is and how fearless he is. And that is why he\u2019s in the position he is, because he has this delusional confidence that leads him to success and he doesn\u2019t care what people think.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jake suffered a broken jaw in the fight<\/a>, but Logan said he was in good spirits after and making TikTok videos.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe guy loves his job and he loves life and he loves putting himself in situations where people don\u2019t think he\u2019s going to do the impossible. And time and time again, he does,\u201d Logan said. \u201cI\u2019m proud of him and I love him very much.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Paul vs. Joshua fight is said to have done 33 million viewers<\/a> on Netflix globally. Logan told First Take that he\u2019s sure Jake will be back in the boxing ring but he does not know exactly when that will be.<\/p>\n

While doing press to promote the boxing match, Jake Paul said he\u2019d be interested in managing his brother in WWE<\/a> and potentially working some matches one day.<\/p>\n
