JAKE PAUL has remarkably claimed that all boxing is fixed in the wake of his brother’s high-profile loss to KSI.
Logan talked the talk but couldn’t back it up as the American suffered a points loss to the Brit in LA last night.

It had been billed as the biggest internet rivalry in history with both fighters desperate to be crowned the YouTube king.
After the six-round slugfest, KSI heard the scores of 56-55 and 57-54 for him and 56-55 for Paul.
The ultimate result came down to a dirty shot in which Paul received a two-point deduction from the judges.
And brother Jake believes the decision was rigged and demanded that they contest the penalty.
He told Behind the Gloves: “They’ll contest the two-point decision. The commission should contest it.
“It’s just bulls***, at the end of the day I’ve been in this sport for a year now – and I shouldn’t be saying this but all this s*** is rigged.
“Everyone wining and dining each other, you see who was at the Staples Centre last night? Joe Markowski with DAZN.
“This sport is rigged, for sure.”
Logan was more accepting of the defeat but admitted that all the harsh words in the build-up was just to sell the fight.
He said: “Fair play to JJ – you are one of the toughest people I know, you deserve everything you have.
“I wish you the best. You had my respect before the fight, you are one of the toughest people I know. I don’t like talking trash, it was all for show, it was all to sell the fight. I have nothing but respect.
“I was more calm this year and spent more time practising boxing, we worked on my conditioning, that was why I was better than the first fight.
“I think the two-point deduction was harsh, I am not happy with the commission about that, I think if you do the math that cost me the fight.”
