The sport of boxing has evolved drastically over the years, and now it is not confined to just trained fighters. Even celebrities and internet personalities have made a niche for celebrity boxing fights. The first big celebrity boxing match was between British Youtuber KSI and Joe Weller, back in 2018. Since then, celebrity boxing quickly became a highly watched event. Apparently, Weller recently shared a post on his social media, which is making a buzz online.
Weller shared a post on Twitter as well as Instagram, where his mother is seen dead lifting. He appreciated his mother’s will and new achievement, and captioned the post, “My Mum breaking the British record for the second time this year, for her category. Lifting 110kg #deadlift”

Furthermore, even Jake’s brother Logan Paul has garnered a considerable fan base in boxing. He has previously fought KSI and boxing legend Floyd Mayweather inside the squared circle. Even though he is currently in a multi-year contract with the WWE, he had revealed his intention to make a boxing comeback soon. He is expected to fight on the same card as his good friend and business partner, KSI, in January. However, his opponent has not been revealed yet.
Even KSI will be fighting in January, but similar to Paul, his opponent is also unknown as of now. KSI recently came off a spectacular victory as he defeated two opponents on the same night. Jake, Logan, and KSI have been the torchbearers of celebrity boxing. They have certainly brought new eyes to the sport, and fans eagerly wait to see them fight.
