Logan Paul has appeared to give the green light to the prospect of fighting his brother Jake Paul after admitting: "I'm already the older brother that loses."
The two siblings have both stepped between the ropes in respective boxing careers, though to varied success. Jake goes into his huge bout with Tommy Fury unbeaten after winning all six of his professional fights - four of which have come by knockout.
Meanwhile Logan has had three bouts - two with YouTube rival KSI, who won the rematch after they drew their first bout, as well as a draw with boxing legend Floyd Mayweather in an exhibition bout. Logan has since gone on to impress in the WWE but has left the door open to a money-spinning showdown with his brother after Jake's comments in a recent interview with Piers Morgan.

Asked by Morgan if he would fight his brother, Jake said on Talk TV: "I don't know. It depends what day you ask me. But I don't know if it will ever happen, man. We can fantasise about it but who knows? I think it could be really interesting.
"I would win. I would win. And that's the tough part is he's okay with being the older brother that loses then I would do the fight but I don't know if he would be okay with that."
Logan was in attendance at the Diriyah Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and was posed the same question ahead of his brother's clash with Fury, and responded by hinting he would be open to the idea. He quickly replied: "I'm already the older brother that loses. Yeah. Great."
First Jake has to overcome Fury in their huge grudge clash, which Logan admitted he had underestimated how much interest had been garnered in the event.

"I didn't realise how big it was. People really care about this fight. America is buzzing right now: it's a Sunday, no one knows what to do, pull up the barbecue, put on Jake Paul-Tommy Fury," he told BT Sport. "Yeah it's a big fight, there's a legacy on the line. Someone's legacy is going to get made tonight and someone's is going to get broken. It's a big moment."
Asked where the loser could go next, Logan replied: "Tommy Fury can go back to Love Island - I'll watch him. I was a fan. Him and [his girlfriend] Molly-Mae [Hague] were very cute. He's got a fall-back, he's fine."

Pressed on who would win the fight and how, Logan answered instantly: "I'm beyond supremely confident [Jake will win]. I don't see a world in which Tommy can pull this off.
"I've been saying round four, I don't really care. I do think it's going to be a knockout though. Tommy's very pretty, and that pretty face is going to hit the canvas pretty hard."
