A video from the altercation seems to imply that Nate was speaking with Jake‘s manager before the opposing sides started exchanging punches.

While it is not immediately clear who and what started the fight, Jake said that Nate‘s team is threatening to press charges for assault.

“Nate’s team has emailed my team trying to claim assault after his team swung first,” he tweeted. “Apparently the guy who swung first is at the hospital getting stitches. Hilarious these fake gangsters acting like this!”

He continued in a second tweet, writing, “All out warfare, eye for eye. You threatened MVPs co-founder who has been a partner to you and your team every step of the way? He’s put your best friend on over and over again. Stupid. Then your team wants to swing on us…so you got served a three piece and a biscuit. Punk. It’s time for goodnight.”

Nate does not appear to have issued a response yet.

Jake‘s fight with Nate comes just a few weeks after his brother Logan Paul sustained an injury during a match of his own.
