Theo Von Blames Logan and Jake Paul for Embarrassing Chair Gaffe at Trump's Inauguration

Theo Von thinks there’s a time and place for playing games, at a presidential inauguration isn’t one of them.

The popular comedian was one of many celebrities on hand to see Donald Trump sworn into office for the second time on Monday. Unfortunately, Von was the subject of one of the event’s more embarrassing moments. While taking in the festivities, Von’s chair broke, sending him crashing to the floor.

What looked like a simple accident at first may have actually been shenanigans on the part of YouTube stars Logan and Jake Paul who were sitting behind Von when his chair gave out.

Responding to the above post, Von claimed that the Paul brothers had fiddled with the chair, causing it to give at the worst possible time.

“Wasn’t an accident,” Von wrote. “Paul kids thought it was [funny] to mess with the chair. There’s a time and a place, ya know. L.”

Good thing they didn’t try messing with Conor McGregor’s seat on the bus.

Despite suffering a little humiliation, Von was thrilled to be part of Monday’s event in Washington D.C.

Fans Defend Jake Paul After KSI Announces Fight Against 44-Year-Old Footballer

Jake Paul isn’t looking so bad right now, is he?

During Saturday’s MF & DAZN X Series 20 event in Manchester, England, YouTube star KSI announced that his next opponent would be Wayne Bridge, a 44-year-old retired professional footballer who played for both Chelsea and Manchester City during his 16-year career. The two are expected to compete in an exhibition boxing bout later this year, though no official date has been revealed.

The announcement was met with significant criticism from fight fans, many of them lambasting KSI for picking an opponent 13 years older than him. Especially after the YouTube star has spent so much of his time trash-talking ‘The Problem Child‘ for doing the exact same thing.

That didn’t sit well with users online who were quick to share their disdain for KSI’s choice of opponent, many of them coming to the defense of Jake Paul.

While Bridge is not a complete novice when it comes to stepping inside the boxing ring, his experience is quite limited. His only fight thus far came via a charity bout against Made in Chelsea star Spencer Matthews in 2018, which he won via unanimous decision.

In comparison, KSI has won five of his six career fights, the most recent being a unanimous decision defeat to Tommy Fury in October 2023.

PFL Founder Announces Jake Paul’s MMA Debut Likely For 2025

Jake Paul is finally set to make his much-anticipated MMA debut this year — at least, according to PFL chairman Donn Davis.

Jake Paul is finally set to make his much-anticipated MMA debut this year — at least, according to PFL chairman Donn Davis.

In January 2023, “The Problem Child” signed an exclusive contract to compete in MMA under the PFL banner. Together, Paul and the organization launched the PPV Super Fight division, a pay-per-view platform designed to ensure fighters receive an unprecedented 50 percent share of event revenues.

The YouTuber-turned-boxer has frequently hinted at stepping into the cage, teasing his MMA debut time and again. He’s even called out UFC icon Conor McGregor and other high-profile fighters for an MMA showdown.

However, despite the constant buzz, little progress has been made, as more than two years after signing with the PFL, Paul has yet to be booked for his promotional debut. Instead, the 27-year-old Ohio native has focused on his thriving boxing career, competing in six bouts between February 2023 and November 2024.

However, as per Davis, Paul will be making his MMA debut this year.

Speaking recently on MMA Fighting’s Town Hall, the PFL head honcho acknowledged that while “The Problem Child” has been predominantly focused on boxing, delaying his debut, there’s no pressure to rush him. Davis hinted that Paul’s first fight under the PFL banner is expected to take place sometime in the fall.

“I talked to Nakisa [Bidarian] an hour ago,” Davis said. “Two things are happening: Jake is super successful in boxing. Whether you love Jake or hate Jake, we can all agree that guy’s the man when it comes to generating attention, revenue, and viewership with his boxing career. It’s more successful than it was when we signed him. On the boxing side, that success has delayed MMA because he’s killing it in boxing. So will MMA happen with PFL? Yes, it will. Has it been delayed? Yes, it has. My guess is fall of this year, but I don’t think it’s going to be before that. He’s got so many things going on in boxing.”

Paul’s most recent appearance in the squared circle saw him face boxing icon Mike Tyson in a highly debated heavyweight showdown this past November, where he secured a unanimous decision victory over his 31-year senior opponent.

UFC Hall Of Famer: Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson ‘Made Me Want To Vomit’

The boxing match between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson may have broken viewership records after being streamed live on Netflix but that doesn’t mean that every audience member came away satisfied. It was always going to be a controversial bout from the moment that it was announced due to the huge age gap between the two men.

Anyone tuning in and expecting a great contest was likely destined to be underwhelmed and that’s the lasting feeling that many were left with once Paul got his hand raised via a unanimous decision. “The Problem Child” has always been divisive and nowhere is that more true than when it comes to veteran fighters who made their names by competing at the highest level.

One of the latest icons to voice his displeasure is MMA pioneer and UFC legend, Don Frye. The 59-year old is known for putting on some classic fights during the early days of the sport including the iconic battle he had with Yoshihiro Takayama in PRIDE which won fight of the year 23 years ago.

A lot has changed since Frye was at his peak and it’s not surprising in the slightest that he didn’t enjoy the time that he spent in the company of the most talked about fight of 2024. He gave his thoughts on the fight and revealed how he attempted to wash it down with an immediate palette cleanser during a recent video on the YouTube channel of his former UFC and PRIDE opponent, Gary Goodridge.

“That made me want to vomit. I was so disgusted with that. I had to go home and put in Tommy Hearns and Sugar Ray Robinson, Sugar Ray Leonard and Jake Lamotta, Rocky Marciano. [I] had to watch some real fighters. If I didn’t do that, I’d never watch another boxing match again. That was a fraud.”

Dan Hardy Backs Cédric Doumbé As Jake Paul’s First MMA Opponent: ‘That Could Be A Good One’

It would appear that Dan Hardy is onboard with the idea of PFL star Cédric Doumbé welcoming YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul to the cage.

Paul has risen to prominence in combat sports courtesy of his efforts in the ring. The Cleveland native has built a professional record of 11-1 that’s largely comprised of wins over aging MMA veterans. Most recently, he got the better of 58-year-old boxing great Mike Tyson for Netflix’s controversial first entry into the fight game.

Following that, “The Problem Child” has continued to boast big aspirations, once again vowing to become a world champion and calling out the likes of Canelo Álvarez. And with that, past talk of an MMA transition has quietened.

Paul previously looked close to a first cage appearance after signing with the Professional Fighters League at the start of 2023. During a recent interview with Bloody Elbow, Hardy — a former UFC title challenger and the head of fighter operations for PFL Europe — pondered the polarizing ex-Disney star’s potential MMA arrival.

“I was excited about the idea that Jake Paul would have a go at mixed martial arts. And I thought to myself he’s going to come to MMA with the same energy, we know he’s got a wrestling background as well,” Hardy said. “He’s in a weird situation, isn’t he? Because who do you match (him) up against?”

Talk of Paul’s debut in the sport most recently returned to the surface when former Glory Kickboxing champ Cédric Doumbé included him on the list of possible 2025 opponents while addressing the crowd in Lyon at the PFL Europe championship event this month.

In the eyes of Hardy, the Frenchman is a realistic opponent option for Paul.

“Cédric Doumbé had mentioned a few different people he would fight, and Jake Paul was on the list. Doumbé’s got a great kickboxing background, but he only has a few fights in MMA. And he’s a striker, so he’s not going to want to grapple with Jake Paul,” Hardy continued. “Doumbé’s a bit older, but he’s definitely smaller. That could be a good one, even in boxing, I think Cédric Doumbé vs. Jake Paul would be a lot of fun.”

There remains no timeline on an MMA venture for Paul, whose most recent tease regarding a combat sports assignment explicitly mentioned the boxing realm once again.

Doumbé, meanwhile, is seemingly eying up a rematch with Baissangour “Baki” Chamsoudinov after the controversial end to their headline clash in Paris earlier this year.
