What Floyd Mayweather admitted about Logan Paul to his corner mid-fight of their exhibition
Over in the Hall of Famer’s corner, his coach told him: “Hit him at the top of the forehead with a jab, just step off your back foot.”He landed just seven of 14 jabs he attempted in the entire eight rounds. For context, though, at 6ft2in, Paul is five inches taller than Mayweather and he was three stone heavier, around 42lbs difference between the two men.Amanda Westcott/SHOWTIMEThe social media influencer landed the same amount of jabs, but he attempted 73, significantly more then Floyd.
Although this fight was finished last summer, the rivalry is far from dead. Paul has persisted that Mayweather owes him money from the ‘legalised bank robbery’, but the boxing legend insists his young challenger has been paid.Asked for an exact figure on how much he was short changed by,“This will be settled, I’m young, dude and I’ve got time, I’ve got f***ing time to troll, to settle a civil lawsuit – he’s just a big spender, he can’t spend like that.
The plot thickened earlier this year when Mayweather’s team reached out to Paul to see if he could step in and face the 50-0 retired superstar in a rematch.“He went on a press conference or something the other day and he had the audacity to tell the media that I asked for a rematch,” he said incredulously.
