Will Jake and Logan Paul go where the Klitschko, Charlo and Spinks brothers never dared?
The brothers and former YouTubers who popularized influencer boxer now say they’re prepared to fight each other on March 27th.
The fight will be streaming live on Max, according to a post on X from Jake Paul.
Both brothers recently attended Donald Trump‘s inauguration earlier this month where they were joined by embattled MMA legend Conor McGregor, who had recently announced his own plans to box Logan in India.
However, that proposal has been scrapped with McGregor pointing his finger at the UFC. The Irishman, who has not competed since 2021, claims his fight with Logan was derailed due to the UFC’s refusal to approve the bout, despite negotiations and significant financial incentives.
Speaking in an interview with The Schmo, McGregor explained that talks were underway for the fight to take place in Mumbai, India, with an estimated payout of $250million on the line. According to McGregor, both he and Logan were ready to fight under the TKO banner, which oversees both the UFC and WWE. However, McGregor claimed, the UFC brass just ‘weren’t into it.’

A Florida elementary school principal was arrested for allegedly throwing an alcohol-fueled house party attended by more than 100 underage students, including one juvenile who was treated at the scene for heavy intoxication, according to police.
On Sunday, Jan. 19, police in Cocoa Beach were called to a home where a large party was taking place, Cocoa Beach Police said in a press release. There they allegedly found more than 100 juveniles in matching t-shirts, many of whom were consuming alcohol that was later learned to be available in coolers at the residence, police said.
Officers found one juvenile on the front lawn “experiencing an alcohol related medical event,” police said.
“The juvenile was so heavily intoxicated that Brevard County Fire Rescue (BCFR) had to respond to treat them,” according to the release.
Officers identified the homeowner as Roosevelt Elementary School principal Elizabeth Hill-Brodigan, 47, of Cocoa Beach, police said in the release.

While EMTs tended to the juvenile, “Hill-Brodigan was seen by officers in the driveway of her residence turning off the outside lights and entering her residence, causing BCFR to use auxiliary lighting on their vehicle to treat the juvenile,” police alleged in the release.
After police arrived, “An intoxicated adult female identified as Karly Anderson, 45, approached officers on scene identifying herself as a teacher (who) had been at the party,” police alleged in the release.
Police learned she was a teacher at Roosevelt Elementary School.
In the following days, Cocoa Beach Police Detectives interviewed numerous juveniles and parents.
An arrest warrant was obtained for Hill-Brodigan, who is charged with child neglect, contributing to the delinquency of a minor, and holding an “open house party,” police said.
Anderson was also arrested, facing charges of child neglect and contributing to the delinquency of a minor.

Hill-Brodigan was released on $3,500 bail on Saturday morning, according to the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office. Anderson was released on a $3,000 bail. It is unclear whether they have retained attorneys who can speak on their behalf.
A juvenile was arrested for an alleged DUI after a traffic stop was conducted near the residence, police said.
Both women have been placed on administrative leave pending the results of a police investigation, Brevard Public Schools said, per News 4 Jax.
“We are extremely troubled by these accusations and are fully cooperating with the Cocoa Beach Police Department,” the district said. “Our commitment to student safety remains our top priority.”
Police are asking anyone with information to contact detectives at 321-868-3248.
In a shocking turn of events, a high school principal has been accused of hosting an alcohol-fueled house party with over 100 students in attendance. The party reportedly spiraled out of control, resulting in one student experiencing a medical emergency.
The principal, who has not been named, is facing serious allegations of reckless behavior and endangering the lives of the students under his care. The incident has sparked outrage among parents and the community, with many calling for his immediate removal from his position.
According to reports, the party was held at the principal’s home and included a large amount of alcohol being consumed by underage students. The situation quickly escalated, with one student reportedly suffering a medical event as a result of the excessive drinking.
This egregious display of poor judgment and negligence has left many questioning the leadership and integrity of the school administration. The safety and well-being of students should always be the top priority, and it is deeply concerning to see a principal engaging in such irresponsible behavior.
As investigations into the incident continue, it is crucial that swift and appropriate action is taken to address this unacceptable behavior. The community deserves better leadership and accountability from those entrusted with the education and care of their children.

UFC middleweight Bo Nickal allegedly has inside information on who will headline the card he’s targeting his return to later this year.
Undefeated middleweight Bo Nickal is on the verge of a Top 15 spot after his most recent win over Paul Craig at UFC 309 in November. Nickal, a former NCAA Division I wrestling national champion, will likely get a Top 15 opponent for his next appearance inside the Octagon.
Since the start of the year, talks over Nickal’s targeted return date and opponent have been relatively quiet. The American Top Team standout wants to return for the UFC’s rumored return to Miami, Florida for UFC 314 on April 12th at the Kaseya Center.
Nickal revealed he’s targeting a return to the Octagon at UFC 314, but as of this writing, nothing has been formally announced nor reported regarding his next fight. But despite the mystery surrounding his return, Nickal allegedly knows what marquee fight will headline the UFC 314 event.

Bo Nickal potentially leaks UFC 314 main event
During a recent episode of his Nickals and Dimes podcast, Nickal took his announced target date further by potentially leaking a featherweight title rematch for UFC 314.
“It’s official, I know for a fact… I know [Ilia Topuria vs. Alexander Volkanovski 2] is happening,” Nickal said.
Nickal didn’t specify where he got the Ilia Topuria vs. Alexander Volkanovski 2 booking news from, but he seems extremely confident in his claims. Topuria knocked out Volkanovski for the UFC featherweight championship at UFC 298 last year, before finishing Max Holloway in his first title defense in October.
One contrary point to Nickal’s claims is that Topuria recently announced his intended move up to lightweight for his next fight. Topuria has called out the likes of Charles Oliveira and UFC lightweight titleholder Islam Makhachev in recent weeks since his latest win.
If Topuria is serious about leaving the featherweight division, Volkanovski would likely be the sure bet for a vacant title shot. Diego Lopes, who is rumored to face a former title challenger at UFC Mexico City, is another name to keep an eye on in the featherweight mix.
Ilia Topuria’s lightweight teases complicate Alexander Volkanovski rematch
After Topuria knocked out Holloway at UFC 308, Volkanovski shared a brief post-fight exchange in the cage with Topuria to promote a potential rematch. Topuria seemed open to offering Volkanovski a rematch but has since pivoted on that stance amidst his lightweight plans.
Before the loss to Topuria, Volkanovski lost a short-notice lightweight title rematch with Makhachev at UFC 294. He’s lost back-to-back fights for the first time in his career after a dominant reign as the UFC’s featherweight titleholder.
As for Nickal, a win over a top contender would likely be enough to earn a spot in the middleweight Top 15 despite his lack of experience. Before defeating Craig at UFC 309, Nickal finished Cody Brundage, Val Woodburn, and Jamie Pickett inside the Octagon.
An announcement regarding the UFC 314 main event is expected to come in the next few weeks. If Nickal’s claims are proven true, Miami is in for another wild UFC event in April.

Attention all UFC fans! The main event for UFC 314 has been leaked by a fighter who is vying for a spot on the undercard. In a shocking turn of events, the fighter took to social media to announce the news, stating “It’s official, I will be headlining UFC 314!”
This unprecedented move has sent shockwaves through the MMA community, as the fighter has yet to be confirmed for a spot on the card, let alone the main event. Fans are buzzing with excitement and anticipation as they await official confirmation from the UFC.
Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story as we await the official announcement from the UFC. Who will this mystery fighter be facing in the main event of UFC 314? Only time will tell.

UFC middleweight prospect Bo Nickal seems to have let a major cat out of the bag.
In a video on his YouTube channel, the multi-time NCAA champion stated that UFC featherweight champion Ilia Topuria will be defending his title against Alexander Volkanovski in a rematch of the former’s title-winning performance in February 2024. The fight is reportedly set for April in the UFC 314 main event.

When reminded by his co-host that the news hadn’t been announced, Nickal said, “No, it’s official. I know that for a fact. I don’t know that it was announced for a fact, but I know it’s happening. I’m announcing it.”
I wouldn’t be surprised if he hears from UFC President Dana White or Hunter Campbell after this episode.
In any case, if Nickal is accurate, UFC 314 is looking really strong. The card is already expected to feature Gilbert Burns taking on big-time prospect Michael Morales, Yan Xiaonan clashing with Virna Jandiroba, and Dominick Reyes fighting Nikita Krylov.
If these fights stick, UFC 314 would have eight ranked fighters in action on the show’s main card, and we don’t yet appear to have a co-main event in place. The UFC could opt to bring Merab Dvalishvili back to defend his title in a rematch with Sean O’Malley.
Alternatively, O’Malley could face Cory Sandhagen, with the winner potentially earning the next title shot. O’Malley vs. Petr Yan 2 is another intriguing possibility for the co-main event.
If you’re looking for a fifth fight on the UFC 314 main card, Nickal also said, “I might fight on that card. That’s the card I’m trying to fight on; April in Miami.”
Nickal is seemingly in line to face a ranked fighter in his next outing. Nickal vs. No. 15 Michel Pereira or No. 13 Jack Hermansson makes sense. If the UFC wants to push Nickal even higher in his eighth professional fight, they could potentially consider No. 11 Paulo Costa.
The build for Nickal-Costa would be wildly entertaining.
What’s Next For the UFC?
Next up for the UFC is the trip to Saudi Arabia. The card has taken some hits in the past 48 hours, but the main event and co-main event are still set to go.
In the co-main event, Shara Magomedov faces his toughest test when he takes on Michael “Venom” Page. In the main event, Israel Adesanya faces Nassourdine Imavov.

Israel Adesanya vs. Nassourdine Imavov – Middleweight (185 lbs)

Ryan Reynolds raised eyebrows with his appearance at the opening night of Hugh Jackman’s “From New York With Love” residency at Radio City Music Hall in Manhattan last Friday.
While Ryan Reynolds brought his signature humor and heartfelt admiration to the event, fans couldn’t help but notice his seemingly fatigued and unwell demeanor, sparking concern on social media.
Ryan Reynolds Sparks Concern At Hugh Jackman’s Residency Opening
Hugh Jackman’s 24-date residency featured iconic songs from his celebrated career, including numbers from “The Boy From Oz,” “Les Misérables,” “The Greatest Showman,” and “The Music Man.” The performance marked Jackman’s first concert in five years and was an emotional milestone for the actor.
Reynolds attended the event to support his longtime friend and “X-Men Origins: Wolverine” co-star. Dressed in an embroidered beige shirt, Reynolds appeared visibly gaunt and overly tanned, with fans describing him as looking “like he hasn’t slept for days.”
During the show, Reynolds participated in a surprise “Hugh & A” session, starting with his trademark wit. “I was told this was going to be a comedy version of ‘Les Mis’ as a one-man show. We all said it was a terrible idea, but he carried on. I see he’s duped me once again!” he quipped, earning laughs from the audience.

Reynolds didn’t just bring humor—he also delivered a heartfelt tribute to Jackman. Reflecting on their first collaboration 16 years ago, Reynolds praised Jackman’s professionalism and kindness.
“This was the first major movie star I ever worked with,” Reynolds shared. “What I saw was just about the best thing anyone could experience if you’re working your way up in the industry. I love this man, I care about this man. He is genuinely the best human being I know.”
Reynolds jokingly added, “And I have four children!” prompting laughter from Jackman, who teased back, calling Reynolds his “fifth best friend” and joking about Reynolds asking for a free ticket to the show.
Legal Drama Takes Its Toll

Despite the lighthearted moments, fans took to social media to express their worry over Reynolds’ appearance.
“Dude looks like he hasn’t slept for dayyyyysssss,” one user commented.
“He looks unwell,” another added.
A third urged, “Take a break, RR. Might be a better move at the moment.”
“He looks different than the way he used to be. He looks like he’s struggling inside,” someone else observed.
Fans Claim Ryan Reynolds Is Just Trying To Save His Image

Adding to the speculation surrounding Reynolds’ appearance is his ongoing legal battle with his wife, Blake Lively, against Justin Baldoni, the director and star of her last film, “It Ends With Us.” The lawsuit, reportedly over creative disputes and contract breaches, has been described as a full-blown legal war and appears to be taking a toll on the couple.
“This is embarrassing,” one Instagram user claimed. “He is again trying too hard. He knows people are cancelling him and his wife, and he wants to win people back. You are failing, Ryan.”
“Both in damage control mode [at the moment]. Both incredibly desperate to win back the public,” someone else said. “Both need to do more than make public and obviously rehearsed professions of love for each other. Both of their recent actions and behaviors speak louder than this publicity stunt.”
Leaked ‘It Ends With Us’ Footage Reveals Key Context
KCS Presse / MEGA
Adding fuel to the fire, Baldoni’s legal team recently released behind-the-scenes footage from “It Ends With Us” to challenge Lively’s allegations. While intended to disprove claims of harassment, the footage has sparked heated debate and provided new context to the controversial case.
The unedited clip, which has since gone viral, features a romantic dance scene at the center of Lively’s allegations. In her complaint, Lively accused Baldoni of dragging his lips down her neck and whispering, “It smells so good,” during a silent take. She claimed the remark went unnoticed by others because the microphones were off.
However, the seven-minute video offers a different narrative. At one point, Baldoni is heard asking, “Am I getting beard on you?” to which Lively responds with laughter, “I’m probably getting spray tan on you.” Baldoni then remarks, “It smells good,” prompting more laughter as Lively explains the scent comes from her body makeup.
The footage has divided public opinion. Baldoni’s team argues it showcases a consensual, professional interaction, while Lively’s team contends it highlights how subtle moments can still contribute to a larger pattern of inappropriate behavior.
Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman have been known for their playful banter and friendly rivalry over the years, but a recent event has left fans concerned about their relationship.
During a recent public appearance, Ryan Reynolds was caught giving Hugh Jackman a concerning look that has fans speculating about the state of their friendship. The look appeared to be a mix of confusion and sadness, leading fans to wonder if there may be some underlying tension between the two actors.
Many fans took to social media to express their worries about the situation, with some even speculating that there may be a rift between the two longtime friends. Others are hoping that it was just a moment caught out of context and that there is nothing to be concerned about.
Regardless of the true nature of the look, one thing is for sure – fans are invested in the friendship between Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman and are hoping that whatever may be going on between them can be resolved. Only time will tell if this concerning look was just a passing moment or if there is something more serious going on behind the scenes.
Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek’s network of contributors
Jewel has apologized for hurting fans who were deeply upset by her performance at Robert F. Kennedy Jr.‘s inaugural ball. But her followers are still enraged — and they firmly let her know.
Per Variety, the “Foolish Games” artist, 50, sang “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” at RFK Jr.’s Make America Health Again Inaugural Ball on Monday, January 20 — the day of President Donald Trump’s second inauguration. (Kennedy — who has caused controversy by sharing his anti-vaccine beliefs and more — was picked by Trump to oversee the Department of Health and Human Services.)
Following her performance, Jewel received backlash from many longtime fans who felt that her appearance at the inauguration event was her way of supporting the current administration. On Friday, January 24, the singer-songwriter attempted to explain her reason for being there — but fans continued to call her out.
The “You Were Meant for Me” singer, a longtime mental health advocate, shared in the selfie video that she was attempting to spread awareness about mental health issues, including the suicide rate in children.

“If there is one thing I’ve learned in the past 20 years, it’s that mental health affects everyone. Across party lines,” Jewel explained. “There are things we can do to save lives … and if I believe I can help, I have to try.”
For the four-time Grammy nominee, that means acting now — not “wait[ing] to try until I agree 100 percent with the people that might be willing to help me. I don’t think that’s how activism works, waiting until everything’s perfect enough to participate,” she continued. “It’s actually because things are so imperfect that we have to find ways to engage and to participate, and we have to act now. We cannot wait another four years. I believe there are people in the new administration that are willing to help on this issue.”
Though she does “not agree on all the politics,” she explained, she believes she “can help change the policy [around mental health] … I am going to try and I’m going to fight.”
Jewel then directly addressed her fans who were affected by her performance at RFK Jr.’s inaugural ball.
“I am so sorry that I caused pain, especially in my LGBTQIA+ community because you guys are treasures. You make the world a better place. You’ve made my life a better place. I will not stop fighting,” she said. “It pains me and I am so sorry. And it pains me that some of my longtime fans feel that I have let them down.”
The majority of people in the comments section of Jewel’s Instagram post were left feeling angry at her apology — and they didn’t hold back.
“your actions and words feel completely at odds with the values you’ve always claimed to stand for. It’s heartbreaking to see you alienate so many of your fans, especially those who once saw you as a voice for compassion and understanding,” one person wrote.
“No: You sold out. You bowed down to fascism, and your justifications ring untrue because this administration is actively hurting those you say you are supporting,” another user opined.
“a mental health advocate supporting an administration that is destroying the mental health of the LGBTQIA+ and black and brown communities?” a third fan claimed. “Give me a f***ing break.”
Still, there were a few others defending Jewel’s performance.
“You do not owe anyone anything. Please stop apologizing to adult children,” one person shared.
“You took a beautiful moment that you were grateful for and was such a huge honor and then you crapped on that amazing moment with this ridiculous apology to your whiney fans because something you believe in and had the great honor and privilege of doing upset a few people because they don’t hold the same beliefs,” wrote another follower.
Jewel’s recent performance at the inauguration event has left many fans feeling upset and disappointed. The singer faced backlash for agreeing to participate in the event, given the controversial nature of the inauguration.
In response to the backlash, Jewel issued a public apology on social media, expressing regret for her decision to perform. She explained that she had made a mistake in judgment and that she understands why fans are upset.
However, many fans are not satisfied with Jewel’s apology, feeling that it is too little, too late. Some have even called for a boycott of her music and concerts.
It remains to be seen how this controversy will impact Jewel’s career moving forward. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.

Singer Jewel took a moment on Friday to explain her decision to perform at an inauguration ball for the Make America Healthy Again movement.
The event was held earlier this week in honor of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., President Donald Trump’s nominee for the secretary of health and human services.
In a video posted to her verified Instagram, the “Who Will Save Your Soul” singer started off by identifying herself as “a mental health advocate” and saying, “If there’s anything that I’ve learned in the past 20 years, it’s that mental health affects everybody’s lives, across party lines.”
Jewel went on to say, “I believe I can help, and if I believe I can help, I have to try. And if I wait to try until I agree 100 percent with the people that might be willing to help me, I’d never get off the bench. I don’t think that’s how activism works, waiting until everything’s perfect enough to participate. It’s actually because things are so imperfect that we have to find ways to engage and to participate.”
“We cannot wait another four years,” the Grammy nominee continued, in reference to Trump’s nascent second term. “I believe there are people in the new administration that are willing to help on this issue, and I do not agree on all the politics, but if I can help shape policy, make sure mental health is in the conversation when it comes to American health, if I can help put resources or mental health tools into the hands of the most vulnerable who need it, I’m going to try, and I’m going to fight.”
She referenced the political polarization in the US post-election, “Half of our country feels hope right now, and I honor that,” while “half of our country feels disenfranchised and scared and vulnerable, and that is unacceptable.”
“I am so sorry that some of my longtime fans feel that I let them down, “Jewel said.
“I am so sorry that I caused pain, especially in my LGBTQIA+ community, because you guys are treasures,” she added. “You make the world a better place. You’ve made my life a better place. And I will not stop fighting. None of us can afford to stop fighting, and I really believe that the only way we change is in relationship. It isn’t in isolation or by isolating, it’s by being in relationship, by reaching out, by having hard conversations.”
Trump announced his intention to nominate Kennedy – a noted vaccine skeptic and former US presidential candidate – to lead HHS in November, days after winning the election.
Jewel has responded to critics who felt “let down” by her decision to perform at an inauguration event by sharing her thoughts on the matter.
In a heartfelt post on social media, the singer-songwriter explained that she believes in the power of music to bring people together, even in times of division. She emphasized that her decision to perform was not meant to endorse any political agenda, but rather to use her voice to spread a message of unity and hope.
Jewel acknowledged that not everyone may agree with her decision, but she urged her fans to remember that music has the ability to transcend boundaries and create connections. She emphasized that she remains committed to using her platform for positive change and encouraged her followers to do the same.
Ultimately, Jewel’s message was one of understanding and compassion, as she sought to bridge the divide between those who may have been disappointed by her decision and those who supported it. She reminded her fans that in times of uncertainty, music can be a source of comfort and inspiration, and she expressed gratitude for the opportunity to share her gift with the world.
WWE is back in primetime this weekend with the latest installment of Saturday Night’s Main Event. After the monster success of the debut episode in December, the promotion hopes to replicate the feat with four matches scheduled to take place in San Antonio as well as an intense contract signing between friends turned rivals.
Saturday Night’s Main Event was revived in December after a 16-year absence from WWE programming. The revival is part of a quarterly deal between WWE and NBC to bring the show to prime time. This weekend’s main event is expected to be Jey Uso challenging “The Ring General” Gunther for the world heavyweight title. Uso’s relatives Jacob Fatu and Nia Jax are also on the card.
The card will also see Bron Breakker look to defend his intercontinental title against Sheamus as the Irishman looks to claim the lone title that has eluded him in his storied career. Plus, Ripley takes on Nia Jax after Jax viciously attacked her on Monday Night Raw earlier in the week.
Look below at the confirmed Saturday Night’s Main Event matches. Saturday Night’s Main Event airs live on NBC and Peacock on Jan. 25 with the main card starting at 8 p.m. ET.
2025 WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event matches
World Heavyweight Championship — Gunther (c) vs. Jey Uso: The build to this world title program is straightforward. Uso challenged Gunther and Gunther accepted. Gunther repeatedly downplayed Uso’s merits as a title challenger, but Uso sent Gunther reeling during a brawl on the Jan. 20 episode of WWE Raw.
Intercontinental Championship — Bron Breakker (c) vs. Sheamus: Sheamus is a surefire WWE Hall of Famer, but there’s one accolade hanging over his head. Sheamus has never won the intercontinental title and has fallen short for years. Breakker suggested it’s time for Sheamus to retire, but “The Celtic Warrior” has no intention to do so before collecting his final prize.
Braun Strowman vs. Jacob Fatu: Strowman crossed paths with The Bloodline soon after returning from injury. Strowman has loosely aligned himself with LA Knight and Sami Zayn to take on The Bloodline. At Saturday Night’s Main Event, behemoths Strowman and Fatu battle.
Women’s World Championship — Rhea Ripley (c) vs. Nia Jax: Jax attacked Ripley at the beginning of Monday Night Raw on Jan. 20. Ripley bounced back later that night and put hands on her rival. A fighting champion, Ripley challenged Jax with Ripley’s title on the line.
Undisputed WWE champion Cody Rhodes and Kevin Owens contract signing: While it won’t be a match, there’s sure to be fireworks when the two are in the ring on Saturday night. Shawn Michaels will serve as mediator as the two sign on for their ladder match at the Royal Rumble. Every time these two have seen each other has resulted in some sort of brawl. The key hook to Saturday night is that Micheals is charged with collecting both the undisputed WWE title and the retired Winged Eagle title from both men. Be on the look out for some wildness to close the show.
