JAKE PAUL has been linked with a fight against Salt Papi – by his own brother.
Social media star Salt Papi knocked out Andy Warski inside 15 seconds at The O2 Arena.
He was far too good for his opponent, who was making his boxing debut in London.
And that victory could fire Salt Papi into the mix against bigger opponents.
Logan Paul quickly called for the Filipino to fight his brother Jake.
Within seconds of Salt Papi’s win on Saturday night, Logan simply tweeted: “Salt Papi vs. Jake Paul.”

Chris Eubank Jr was another impressed by Salt Papi’s KO win.
He said: “The guy went to sleep, incredible. If you look at him, he looks like he works a nine-to-five at a cheese factory, so to see him come out there, moonwalk, dance, lick his lips and then knock a guy out, that’s box office right there.”
The fight took place on the undercard of KSI’s bout against Luis Alcaraz Pineda.
Jake Paul has been linked with a fight against KSI next year.
A war of words erupted between the pair when Jake hit out at the fight card for Saturday night.

KSI fought twice on the same night – opening the show against Swarmz before taking on Pineda in the main event.
Paul blasted on Twitter: “This can’t be real? Each ‘fight’ is 3 rounds? And he gets a 3hr break in between! Hahahahaha.
“It’s way easier than one 6 round fight. KSI & Minions Boxing doing the fans dirty with this fake s***. Mislead after mislead.”
And that sparked a huge Twitter feud, with KSI responding: “Was wondering when you were gonna pipe up. You must be so sad and bored on your a***, having no event happening.
“Still fighting a pro boxer before you, and you had 3 year head start. Plus how you gonna talk when you ain’t fought 2 people in one night?”
To which Paul replied: “You are fighting a nice young man from Mexico in a 3 round exhibition. Be real. No such thing as a 3 round pro fight.”
KSI then clapped back by insisting that at least he is fighting in 2022, with Jake inactive since December following his knockout win over Tyron Woodley.
Paul later messaged: “What you (sic) doing isn’t fighting. It’s an exhibition against a nice young man and your mate you make music with.”
In a follow-up tweet, Jake then said: “KSI will never fight me. That is obvious and I’m ok with it.
“He is trying to hype his exhibition fights.”

Again KSI was quick to comment, as he stated: “When you see me KO both of them, we’ll see if it isn’t ‘fighting’.
“Jake, I get it, you’re mad rn. You’re afraid that my PPVs are about to sit on everything you’ve done in the past 3 years combined.”
