Logan Paul and Floyd Mayweather finally faced off for the first time ahead of their exhibition bout on June 6th. During the press conference, Logan Paul also mocked Mayweather’s height. The debuter’s younger brother Jake Paul also did the same and taunted the undefeated Mayweather as he made his way out to the stadium.
Logan Paul and Mayweather also shared some words and things became intense during the press conference. However, both men kept things clean and professional, resisting the urge to trade blows in front of the media.
Mayweather said, “I fight real fighters so guess what I’m willing to fight both on the same night. I’m going to treat you like one of my grandkids. I’ll tighten you a** up.”
A huge brawl kicked off after Logan’s brother, Jake Paul, stole Floyd Mayweather’s hat at the end of a heated confrontation. Jake decided to confront Mayweather and snatched his hat. This act of provocation kicked off a melee that saw Jake Paul set upon by Mayweather and his entourage of security guards.
