Logan Paul vs Floyd Mayweather?

I don’t follow boxing much but is there any chance this kid doesn’t get straight murdered?

What do you think the rules are going to be? Are you going to watch?

I think it’s an extremely dumb fight myself, I guess only time will tell if I tune in. Definitely gave me a chuckle when I read the article.

It's only an exhibition match. I'm more interested in his fight with Connor McGregor which is being negotiated currently.

He has no chance. Mayweather may put on a rope-a-dope clinic and not punch him back, just to keep it interesting for a little bit. I'm actually not even sure why anyone would buy this fight.

He’s just taking easy fights for money.

From what I heard - mayweathers money management isn’t that great

Not from what I’ve seen either, there’s a video of him scrapping piles of gold, watches and diamonds on YouTube. Can only imagine the bath he took on those purchases.

Mayweather will put on a clinic against Paul. Paul must be crazy to get in ring with him.

he made around 300m on the fight vs mcgregor. hard to see imagine going broke when you make that much off just 1 night

I don’t think he is broke, just has so much stuff that he was taking back stuff he didn’t use or wear. Just kinda wasteful even if you do have money. He has a great money management team to take care of that stuff for him so he will never be broke I imagine.
They don’t call him Floyd money Mayweather for nothing though, he dropped $18M alone on a hublot, not sure what the resale on something like that is but stack up purchases like that and a fortune can change hands in no time

Mayweather was one of the best ever, no doubt.
But now he's 43, coaxing suckers to spring for pay-for-views against non-boxers.
To each their own, but it all seems silly to me.

Can't be any worse than the recent Roy Jones vs Mike Tyson fight.

Another boring fight. Miss the good old days of boxing. Sudan Ray Leonard, Spinks, Hagler, Duran, Alexis Argeullo, Tyson, Hearns, Bowe, Holyfield, etc.

Seems most of his content is aimed at younger teens, which is another reason this seemed kind of weird to me.

That was boxing. Now it’s marketing and promotion.

This is all becoming absurd and nothing more than a money grab. The only good thing to come out of this would be for Mayweather to put this kid into a coma for a couple of days so all these celebrity wannabe fighters stop this crap. It is making a mockery of the sweet science.

the only absurd thing is people actually thinking logan paul thinks he can beat mayweather. despite all his antics he's not an idiot, he knows what he's doing. this is all for money

Exactly, then he makes major bets on him self through his friends to call which round the KO is.

Had to look into this as I couldn't imagine any hublot being $18m but it was actually a jacob and co he bought for 18m
