Video: Floyd Mayweather (155), Logan Paul (189) face off after weigh-in
HOLLYWOOD, Fla. – Floyd Mayweather and Logan Paul faced off one last time before they get in the ring, and MMA Junkie was on the scene for the festivities.
Mayweather, 44, and Paul, 26, will meet in an eight-round boxing exhibition Sunday night at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens. But before they do, the 50-0 former champion and 0-1 YouTuber came face to face after they weighed in – Mayweather 155 pounds and Paul 189.5.
They engaged in a long, intense faceoff until the end when Paul said something that made Mayweather laugh. Afterward, Paul’s confidence was through the roof.
“He’s not ready. He don’t know what to expect,” Paul said. “And this is not the biggest fight of my life. This is the biggest fight of his life, because he’s got a lot on the line, and he’s got everything to lose. I’m gonna go in there and have fun. The fact that I’m even up here proves that this sh*t is a simulation. None of it’s real. The aliens are coming in June. Just be ready.
“Tomorrow I break the f*cking simulation and beat the greatest boxer in the history of the planet.”
Mayweather, for his part, was cool in the moment.
“I fought every different style you could possibly fight,” Mayweather said. “Height don’t win fights, weight don’t win fights, fighting wins fights. At the end of the day, I can fight.”
