Jake Paul and Logan Paul were money-making machines in 2021, as the YouTube stars-turned-boxers allegedly made $63 million in the previous year.
On Friday, Forbes announced their list of the highest-paid social media influencers, with the Problem Child coming in second with an estimated $45 million in profits.
According to the publication, Jake made approximately $40 million in the boxing ring, winning against Ben Askren in April and Tyron Woodley in August and December.
Whether Jake is a “professional” boxer or not, the money he makes is undeniably true. His earnings in 2021 would have ranked him among the top-paid athletes last year, garnering more than Canelo Alvarez, who supposedly made $34 million.
Thanks mainly to his battle with Floyd Mayweather, his podcast, and other commercial ventures, Logan, who ranked #8 on Forbes’ YouTube list, purportedly earned $18 million in 2021.
Despite their massive earnings in 2021, neither Jake nor Logan were able to overtake Mr. Beast, who earned $54 million on his own.
