Odd fight to say the least. Mayweather taking fights from non-fighters to protect the undefeated record and rake in more easy money. Couple of oddities here though. You can purchase that PPV right now for about 24 bucks and then the price goes up incrementally til fight time with it reaching over 60 bucks as we get into February. Believe the first 1 million buys can be had at the discounted price of ~ $25. LP is an inexperienced amateur boxer at best but would also have a decided size advantage. Believe he's 6" taller than Mayweather and 40-50 pounds heavier.
Interesting.Mayweather is 43 but should out technical bore the beejesus out of anyone who pays for that fight
Well, also of note...I might be wrong...but I think Mayweather has Paul under contract. So, he is promoting his own fighter and profiting both sides.Who is Logan Paul?
Youtube multi-millionaire influencer and a Maverick which is just a step below Warrior spirit.Who is Logan Paul?
Interesting.
Mayweather knows exactly how to pick out a fight.
Paul called him out for one thing, but Mayweather is always ready to rock at the prime moment where he has the most advantages. If he waits any longer he gets older and Paul gets better. So Mayweather is right to jump in as soon as possible and make the buck.
With Manby Paquioa he did the opposite. Delay, wait, cancel, delay...
Then Paquioa got a little older, got into politics, owned a basketball team that he played on, and finally hurt his shoulder and was having public stress and shit.
All of a sudden Mayweather is stalking him to events and pushing for a fight now or never, offering billions. Let's do it!
Manny needed the money so bad to stabilize his ventures he fought him hurt.
I think prime Manny without hundreds of childhood street fights probably cleans up Mayweather on talent, left hand, offense fighter...he was always the match-up nightmare Mayweather feared,
But its cuz his dad was a fighter. He came into the game with people who knew all the ways to time a fight in your favor. He plays the game perfectly, 50-0, and this will be no different.
Big bucks. Check.
Easy fight. Check.
Better now than later? Check.
That's why you see the 2 months out date. Mayweather won't give him much time to get any better.
Didn't know that. My guess is this is a snoozefest. Hopefully Snoop comentates and brings life to it. I am sure I'll watch. I haven't missed a whole lot of hype fights.Well, also of note...I might be wrong...but I think Mayweather has Paul under contract. So, he is promoting his own fighter and profiting both sides.
This is a good business decision, good fight timing.
Oh, cool. This totally answers my question of who the fuck is Logan Paul?Well, also of note...I might be wrong...but I think Mayweather has Paul under contract. So, he is promoting his own fighter and profiting both sides.

True, this is why I think we'll see more of these celebrity type fights in the future. Paul's brother is actually calling out Conor McGregor and has made it his mission to get that fight done in the coming years.Well, also of note...I might be wrong...but I think Mayweather has Paul under contract.

Is this really something worthy of actual discussion?
Honestly. An actual professional boxer fighting a youtuber in an exhibition fight, and there seems to be serious discussion about it? As if it matters?
Holy fuck, c'mon giant asteroid. We need a reset.
He didn't tune up Nate. That was his brother, Jake, who seems to be taking boxing more seriously than Logan but who has also just beaten 2 random guys who never fought in their lives. Logan is the one who lost a SD to KSI after having 2 points deducted for hitting him when he was down.This Paul guy was/is an aspiring boxer. He has age, height,weight and reach in his corner but theoretically he should get rekt.
It's only a thing because he just tuned up Nate Robinson.
