LOGAN PAUL acknowledges brother Jake’s decision to call Conor McGregor rant in the X ranking match is ‘damned’.
Jake appeared in the headlines in December after he called McGregor an ‘Irish bastard’ and claims to have sent him a $ 50 million combat offer.
Even Elder Logan – who faces up against former McGregor rival, this year’s Floyd Mayweather – was shocked by the video.
And he fears Jake, 24, has gone too far behind UFC champion McGregor – who has 19 knock-out knockouts in 22 wins.
Logan, 26 years old, said above audio file at the time: “I love Jake, obviously, but this is stupid. Sorry, sorry, this is stupid, man.”
When Mayweather, 44, beat McGregor, 32, in their 2017 boxing match, Logan was asked why he was opposed to Jake fighting the loser in that match.
And he replied: “Conor McGregor is a male tennis player, he’s older than Floyd Mayweather, he’s younger than Floyd Mayweather.
“He’s very active. I understand what you’re saying, so do the others, but he’s just a correct striker, a knockout artist.
“Floyd isn’t. He’s not. He’s older, he’s getting older every day, every day I’m getting better.
“I understand the difference between us.”

Logan is set to face Mayweather in February, but it was postponed to allow fans to attend.
Feeling the Internet lost its professional debut last year due to the decision to break up with social media rival KSI – whose real name is Olajide William Olatunji.
But his brother Jake won his first two games, sympathetically beat retired NBA player Nate Robinson, 36, in November.
He plays against former UFC semi-mid-boxer Ben Askren, 36, next Saturday, his third professional match.
