Floyd Mayweather’s Family Urges Boxing Legend to Pay Logan Paul

It has been almost eleven months since YouTuber Logan Paul squared off with boxing legend Floyd Mayweather in an exhibition match at the Hard Rock Stadium in Florida. 5-division world champion and undefeated hero ‘Money’ Mayweather came out of retirement at 44 to fight Logan Paul, 26  in an event billed as ‘Bragging Rights.’ Although the bout received immense and mixed criticism, it was a match that generated a significant number of pay-per-views.

For Youtuber-turned-boxer Paul, sharing the ring with a living legend such as Mayweather was more than just a dream come true. As much as it contributed to the former’s growing resume in life, it helped him gain prestige and honor. Till this, things went pretty well. The tables turned north to south when Paul made shocking claims and accused Mayweather of not doing the former’s due payment from the fight.

In a recent interview with ‘Fred Talks Fighting’, Jeff Mayweather, uncle of ‘Monye,’ had his own opinion on the topic.

“I mean, he [Logan Paul] should get paid. The fight’s been over, it’s been a while. So, I mean Logan do deserve to get paid. He was there.”

“I don’t know what’s going on with that. So, I’m not really going to speak on it. That really has nothing to do with me,” he added, talking to Fred.

Later, in an interview concerning Logan Paul’s claims, the following is what Mayweather had told the media:

“That comes with the territory. Right to them, that’s real money. The money is not coming fast enough. That’s why when they say money on the back end far as pay-per-view, they take a while or something. Be happy with the biggest payday you ever got in life.”

Hopefully, Logan Paul will get paid for what he deserves from his bout against Floyd Mayweather at Hard Rock. But all fans can do at this moment is just wait and watch. What do you think will happen? Let us know in the comments below.
