Floyd Mayweather is going to fight Logan Paul in an exhibition match next year.
One of them is the world’s greatest boxer; while the other is better-known for his pranks on YouTube.
Still, after the huge interest in watching the Mike Tyson vs. Roy Jones Jr. legends Only League event, Floyd Mayweather is interested in an exhibition match against one of his fiercest (sorry, loudest) critics: Logan Paul.
The exhibition match will take place on February 20, 2021.
This will be Paul’s first proper boxing fight since he lost to KSI back in 2019.
Mayweather and Paul have been going after each other on social media for the past few months.
“These YouTube girls better find some Barbie dolls to play with cause I’m not the one for the kid games. 3 years ago a fighter from the UFC said my name and I had to put a muzzle on that bi***,” saiy Mayweather on Twitter.
“Logan Paul can get the same treatment before I go conquer Japan again.”
Mayweather officially retired in 2015, but came back to fight Conor McGregor in 2016 and kickboxing champion Tenshin Nasakuwa in a 2018 exhibition match. Technically, that makes his professional record 50-0.
The Floyd Mayweather vs Logan Paul Special Exhibition will be aired on Fanmio PPV. You can pick up virtual tickets for US$25 online.
