Despite Paul’s overwhelming success on YouTube, his decision to upload a video in Japan’s ‘Suicide Forest’ landed him in the biggest controversy in the platform’s history. 

The disturbing video involved Paul and a group of fellow YouTubers recording the dead body of a man who had committed suicide in Aokigahara Forest, one of the world’s most-used suicide sites. The video received extreme backlash from the online community and wider media outlets, including CNN, and the BBC.

Logan Paul vs KSI 1: Who won?

However, Logan returned to the limelight when he was challenged to a boxing match by KSI in 2018 at the Manchester Arena.

Paul took on the British YouTuber in an 85kg amateur fight on August 25 of the same year. The entertaining bout went the full six rounds and was scored as a majority draw. The scorecards of every single judge gave both fighters 57 points, apart from Gareth Morris who scored KSI 58.

The event was a huge success and brought in over 1.3 million pay-per-view buys worldwide.

Broadcasters such as Sky Sports and DAZN began to show interest in the rematch and both fighters agreed a draw wasn’t a satisfying end to their feud.

Paul’s second fight with KSI was conducted as a professional bout with no headgear and 12-ounce gloves.

This time, Paul was on home soil with the match taking place at the Staples Center, Los Angeles on November 9, 2019.

The Cruiserweight fight between the two men was extremely tough to call. However, after the full six rounds, the decision went the way of KSI with only one judge scoring Paul as the winner.

In total, the fight sold over 216,000 pay-per-views on Sky Sports in the United Kingdom.

Although Paul lost the fight, it can still be considered a career-high as both events brought a new set of fans to the sport of boxing.

Logan Paul vs Floyd Mayweather

In what might be one of the most controversial fights in recent history, Logan Paul is taking on Floyd Mayweather in a boxing match on February 20, 2021.

Mayweather is considered to be one of the greatest boxers of all time with a 50-0 record. Paul is yet to achieve his first victory in professional boxing and has never faced a professional fighter.
