Tom Brady smacks 'dork' Logan Paul while Karl-Anthony Towns steps in during chaotic Fanatics Fest event.

Brady and Paul Clash at Fanatics Fest

Tom Brady and Logan Paul found themselves in an intense moment at Fanatics Fest on Friday. It’s a bit unclear if it was genuine or just for show, but Brady seemed to slap Paul with his throwing hand while together in front of a live crowd at the Javits Center. This incident seemed to bother Knicks player Karl-Anthony Towns, who was also present.

Afterward, Brady shared the encounter online, playfully calling Paul an “idiot.”

Excited fans chimed in on social media, dubbing it “Round 100” of their ongoing “Endless Beef.” In another post, Paul re-shared a video with a comment, “This is before I was taunting Tom for beating him at flag football, and he’s trying to hit me?? A terrible example for kids. Aura -100 + Blocked. With a torn triceps.”

Brady, known for being a seven-time Super Bowl champion, replied, “I tried America… Next time I see this nerd, I’m going to try it again.”

Interestingly, the two had shared a more friendly vibe earlier this year at a flag football game where they connected. In that game, Brady, who wasn’t actually on Paul’s team, playfully threw a soccer ball at him after a play. It seemed like other influencers, celebrity boxers, and WWE stars were also caught up in some sort of competitive spirit with the legendary quarterback.

During a previous Fanatics Flag Football event in March, Brady had teased Paul about his high school football record, saying, “Logan came out of a lot of games this week. You scored 19 TDs in high school. No one cares,” after Paul appeared to dodge facing off against notable players like Le’Veon Bell and Myles Garrett.

This latest encounter adds to the ongoing saga between Brady and Paul. It does seem a bit odd, given the context, especially during SummerSlam season, but who knows? Brady has expressed interest in having a WWE experience someday, saying, “I have to get the invitation. I’ve been waiting a long time.” He even joked about asking WWE president Nick Carne for a storyline involving him.
