Logan Paul Knocks Friend Out Cold in Slap Boxing Incident

Logan Paul has been "practicing" for an upcoming appearance in Russia's slap boxing league and he just brutally knocked out his sparring partner so violently, he has decided to drop out of the tourney.

Paul uploaded the video of the slap on his social media — it was so hard, he literally knocked out a guy twice his size out cold.

The YouTube star has been promoting an appearance at a Fitness Weekend event in Russia but Paul has now decided to drop out of bout.

Paul issued a statement saying, "Due to an unforeseen and unfortunate event that took place during practice today, I have decided not to participate in the upcoming slap competition. Based on today's incident and the aftermath, it became clear that I don't have the desire to participate in an event that can result in serious injury to virtually anyone competing."

Also, because Logan Paul is a YouTuber, it must be said ... it's unclear if all of the video, and reaction by his sparring partner, is authentic.
