The former governor of California and star of more than four dozen films has teamed with YouTube creator Logan Paul to launch the Slap Fighting Championship next month — featuring a roster of beefy men slapping the crap out each other.The Slap Fighting Championship will be held March 5 in Columbus, Ohio, and livestreamed for free on Logan Paul’s YouTube and Facebook channels and on Fanmio.com.
The event is being staged by Poland-based slap-fighting promoter PunchDown.“Prepare to watch some brutal slaps March 5th with me and @loganpaul live and free on Logan’s YouTube and on @fanmio,” Schwarzenegger tweeted Tuesday.Paul is a controversial YouTuber and actor who has mounted a boxing career; last year, he sparred with Floyd Mayweather in a pay-per-view event on Showtime.
