The Jake Paul and Tommy Fury fight was filled with some controversial, yet standout moments throughout the bout.
From point deductions to mid-fight insults, it was certainly entertaining - even if it wasn’t for the boxing purists.
One moment has left fans in stitches, however, involving Logan Paul and broadcaster Radio Rahim.
Midway through the fight the interviewer went over to the WWE superstar to get his thoughts on the fight so far.

Rahim asked Logan what his message to Jake was before his brother walked out to the ring.
Logan replied: “I said, ‘Jake I love you, I’m not going to give you a big speech, I know you got this but come back victorious or come back on your shield, I love you bro’.”
Perhaps Rahim wasn’t paying attention to Logan’s answer or perhaps it was a lapse in concentration but the interviewer's response made for hilariously awkward viewing.
Clearly not understanding that the ‘I love you bro’ was a message from Logan to Jake the interviewer chimed in with his own show of love.

He replied to Logan: “I love you too, man.”
That’s the stuff nightmares are made of.
While Logan and those around him didn’t seem to catch the slip-up in the heat of the moment, those online couldn’t help but contain their laughter.

One fan wrote: “Radio Rahim saying ‘I love you too man’ to Logan Paul who was saying it to Jake is the same awkward energy as when you wave back to someone who wasn't waving at you."
Another said: “Why did the guy say ‘I love you too man’ back to Logan Paul? He wasn’t talking to you bruv.”
A third added: “Did Radio Rahim just say ‘I love you too man’ to Logan Paul when Logan was saying ‘I love you’ to his brother?”
Yeah, I don’t think Rahim is ever going to live that one down.

It was a lighter moment in a controversial night that saw many blast the referee for getting too involved.
While many agree that Fury was fairly awarded the win, many felt the official robbed them of an even more entertaining fight.
Fortunately for Fury he prevailed to hand Jake Paul his first-ever professional boxing loss.
