That's it, Whindersson (Nunes). And against Logan Paul I will make a point of being in his corner. (…) With great honor I will reinforce your competent team in this epic clash! Prepare the machine to knock out! In this war we will be together, on the same side of the ring. And with us the strength and energy of more than 200 million Brazilians! This is sport! That's boxing!”, wrote Popó on his official 'Twitter'.

Then, Popó saw Logan Paul answer him on the platform. The North American YouTuber shot at the boxer for agreeing to face Whindersson in 'Fight Music Show'.

“Pop you c****, you hit a comedian!”, criticized Paul.

And the feud continued. Attentive to the movement, the four-time world champion was quick to respond to Jake's brother. He stated that Logan is still unaware of the real value of respect in sport and is betting on Whindersson to win.

“Comedy will be the show that Whindersson will do right after he knocks you out, Logan Paul. The first thing boxing teaches is respect. You just prove that you haven't learned anything. He's more of a street fighter than a fighter. Check it out,' he concluded.

The trend between clashes between YouTubers and athletes seems, in fact, to have reached a strong point in Brazil. Whindersson Nunes, has now challenged Logan Paul to a confrontation. On the other hand, Popó expressed a desire to measure forces against José Aldo.
