Jake Paul and brother Logan tease potential boxing match ‘decade' in the making
Brothers Jake and Logan Paul have seemingly teased that they could meet in a boxing match, after releasing a digital poster on Tuesday.
The American pair, who both made their names as social-media stars, have competed in the boxing ring numerous times in recent years.
Jake, 28, is 11-1 as a professional and most recently beat heavyweight legend Mike Tyson, outpointing the 58-year-old in November. Logan, 29, has predominantly fought in exhibition bouts, including a contest with sporting great Floyd Mayweather in 2021.
And on Tuesday (28 January), Logan took to Instagram to share a digital poster, which showed him facing off with Jake. The caption read: 'The moment you've waited a decade for… March 27 on @streamonmax.'
Jake and streaming service Max were both listed as collaborators on the Instagram post.
MMA Fighting reported: 'A formal announcement about the event is expected this week, but sources told MMA Fighting's Damon Martin that no fight was confirmed with the tease from the Paul brothers, and it's unlikely that's an accident.
Earlier on Tuesday, Jake told the All The Smoke Fight show that Logan was almost chosen as his opponent for November's record-breaking Netflix fight, before Tyson was picked.

'I'm okay with fighting my brother, because I wouldn't have to be the one that dealt with losing,' Jake said. 'Seriously. Emotionally, if that would scar him, then he shouldn't do it. But if he's going to sign up, I don't have to be the one to lose.'
The 28-year-old also joked that the opportunity to get revenge on Logan for beating him up as a kid 'plays into it a little bit'.
Logan has mainly featured in WWE since 2021, although he did box Conor McGregor's former teammate Dillon Danis in 2023. Logan won via disqualification after a brawl took place in the ring.
Most recently, Logan was linked with a boxing match against McGregor in India, but the former UFC champion suggested last week that the exhibition bout has fallen through.

Juventus, Man United and Arsenal target Gyokeres annoyed by transfer speculation
Juventus, Manchester United, and Arsenal target Viktor Gyokeres appears to be fed up with transfer speculation, saying: 'I will speak when the time is right.' Sporting CP striker Gyokeres, one of the most sought-after strikers in the 2025 summer transfer window, has released a brief statement about his future, appearing annoyed by the recent transfer speculation. Advertisement 'There is [are] a lot of talks at the moment, most of it is false. I will speak when the time is right,' Gyokeres wrote in an Instagram story on Thursday. Juventus, Manchester United and Arsenal have already approached the Sweden striker, as Football Italia reported this week. Multiple sources believe Gyokeres will be allowed to leave Sporting for circa €70m this summer, despite a €100m clause included in his contract with the club. However, Sporting CP President Frederico Varandas told the BBC earlier this week that this would not be the case. 'I can guarantee that Viktor Gyokeres will not leave for € 60m plus €10m because I never promised that,' Varandas said. Advertisement 'To this day, Sporting have not had an offer for Gyokeres – neither today nor last season.' Juventus, Arsenal and Man United called Gyokeres LISBON, PORTUGAL – NOVEMBER 22: Viktor Gyokeres of Sporting CP celebrates after scoring a goal during the Portuguese Cup match between Sporting CP and Amarante FC at Estadio Jose Alvalade on November 22, 2024 in Lisbon, Portugal. (Photo by) Gyokeres scored 54 goals in 52 appearances with Sporting CP in 2024-25, and his contract at the club runs out in June 2028. Football Italia understands Arsenal have been in contact with Gyokeres' camp in recent days, just like Manchester United and Juventus. The Gunners are also interested in RB Leipzig's forward Benjamin Sesko and have held talks with the latter.

Zverev into Stuttgart semis, Auger-Aliassime stops teenager Engel
German tennis player Alexander Zverev in action against USA's Brandon Nakashima at their quarter-final tennis match during day five of the BOSS Open tennis tournament. Marijan Murat/dpa Top seed Alexander Zverev reached the Stuttgart Open semi-finals on Friday, and so did Felix Auger-Aliassime by stopping German teenager Justin Engel. Zverev defeated American Brandon Nakashima 7-5, 6-4 in one and a half hours. His next opponent will be either another American in Ben Shelton or Czech Republic's Jiri Lehecka. Advertisement "It was a good match for the second one on grass court. Today's level was better than yesterday," he said referring to his last 16 game against Corentin Moutet on Thursday. "I'm happy to have served the way I did," he added. Auger-Aliassime beat the 17-year-old Engel 7-6 (7-3), 6-3. The two traded breaks midway through the first set, and Canada's Auger-Aliassime then won the final three games for victory in 1:38 hours which he clinched with his 18th ace. He next faces second seed Taylor Fritz, who broke Hungary's Marton Fucsovics once in each set and fired 14 aces en route to a 6-3, 6-4 quarter-final victory in 1 hour 15 minutes. Advertisement Wildcard entry Engel, who is ranked 281st, was playing his first career quarter-final on the ATP Tour. At age 17 he was the youngest player in the last eight of a grass court tournament since Boris Becker's run to his first Wimbledon title 40 years ago in 1985. "My takeaway is that I can keep up with the top guys and that the hard training is paying off. Now I'll just keep going," Engel said. The Stuttgart Open is one of tune-up tournaments for Wimbledon, which starts on June 30.

Man Reveals One Gen Z Shopping Habit Millennials Just Can't Cope With
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. In a viral TikTok post that has clocked more than 2.5 million views, Davide De Pierro, a 37-year-old from New Jersey, struck a generational nerve with a simple observation: younger people are far too comfortable making major purchases on their smartphones. "I just had a friend buy his plane ticket on his phone," De Pierro, who is known as @ddp8792 on TikTok, told viewers in the post from May 22. "That's a laptop purchase. "Someone back me up," he added. De Pierro told Newsweek about the viral moment and the generational divide it stems from, which many viewers have been poking fun at in the comments. "I did not create the term 'laptop purchase,' but I've seen it used … I've also seen other posts online about this," he said. The distinction between phone and laptop usage may seem like a minor point, but it is one that reveals how differently millennials and Gen Zers navigate the digital world. Millennials—defined as those born between 1981 and 1996—tend to reserve smartphones for quick tasks: scrolling through Instagram, messaging, or maybe buying a coffee. Booking an international flight? As the TikTok video jokingly summed up: that's a "laptop thing." For most Gen Zers, born between 1997 and 2012, there is no such boundary. They are just as likely to research, book, and pay for a vacation on a smartphone as they are to order lunch. This shift is part of a broader trend that has been described as the divide between the "big internet" and the "little internet." Older millennials are typically more comfortable on traditional web platforms—laptops, long-form blogs, and detailed searches—while Gen Z thrives on the streamlined, mobile-first experience of apps such as TikTok. Though De Pierro's post may not be the first that pokes fun at this generational culture clash, the traction it gained online has continued to elevate the conversation. The candid TikTok video prompted waves of discussion and humorous commentary among users who saw it as emblematic of the wider divide between millennials and Gen Z when it comes to digital behavior. "I agree," one viewer said. "The laptop purchase is a millennial thing." "As a millennial, I agree 100 percent," another added. "The anxiety I would get using phone. "This is Gen Z activities," they said. From left: Davide De Pierro speaks to his TikTok audience about "laptop purchases"; and a stock image of a traveler buying airline tickets on an Apple laptop.

One comment shared a different opinion: "I do everything from my phone. I bought a house on my phone." "I support this 100 percent big purchase=big screens, multiple tabs and multiple hours/days of research," another added. "That's for the big internet," a viewer posted. "Also a serious email can't be written from a phone," another commented. De Pierro, who works as a lawyer and previously lived in Italy for eight years, said that the idea of TikTok stardom was far from his mind until recently. "I am what my ex-girlfriend calls 'chronically offline,' so it is unlike me to have a TikTok, but she encouraged me to try one," he said. "I started really posting at the end of March 2025. "I owe this to her, for encouraging me and showing me I can do this," he added. Despite the pair breaking up afterwards, De Pierro's TikTok presence has grown rapidly over the past few months to more than 600,000 followers. He is now writing a book and hopes his unexpected platform will help him promote it once it is ready. "Until then, I'll keep trying to make relatable life scenarios funny for people," De Pierro said.
