Logan Paul recently surprised many by naming TikTok star Salt Papi as his No.1 influencer boxer, putting aside his brother Jake, whom he ranked second.
The Paul brothers are two of the most successful YouTubers to transition into the world of boxing. Jake Paul has enjoyed a much better run in the professional ranks, amassing a 5-0 record that includes knockout wins over former MMA champions Ben Askren and Tyron Woodley.
Despite 'The Problem Child’ boasting an unblemished record, that wasn’t enough for him to be considered the best influencer boxer by his own brother.

In an interview with FightHype, ‘The Maverick’ was asked to list his top five influencer boxers. He initially placed his brother at No.1 before switching around and adding Salt Papi. With that, he placed his brother in second and KSI in third.
Initially, Paul said:
“I think he’s [Jake] number one right now. You know, look at his record. Numbers don’t lie. I’m number 2. I can’t say KSI is number three, right? ‘Cause he’s got a better record than me. F*ck it, I don’t want any beef. KSI is number two and I’m number three, whatever.”
When the interviewer suggested that Salt Papi should have a place on the list, Logan Paul changed up his answer:
“Salt Papi's No.1, Jake Paul is No.2, Deji's No.3 and he's going to knock out Floyd Mayweather, that's a fact.”

“The way the community is running with this deji thing is amazing. The whole 'deji is the goat and 'deji gonna knockout Mayweather.' I can't imagine what Mayweather is thinking right now haha.”
Another commented:
“Logan afraid to speak his mind as usual.”
Also commenting on Logan Paul's much-debated answer, an individual wrote:
“Logan needs to be himself more.. he clearly doesn’t want to speak his mind or piss anyone off.”
