Floyd Mayweather admits he\u2019s open to Jake Paul fight as trash talk continues YouTube: Fight Hub TV\/Instagram: Jake PaulBoxing legend Floyd \u2018Money\u2019 Mayweather has admitted that he\u2019s open to a fight with Jake Paul despite their sizable weight difference. As Jake Paul has made waves across the boxing world, the YouTuber-turned-boxer has picked up a few rivalries along the way thanks to his incessant trash talk \u2013 and he can count Dana White, Conor McGregor, and Floyd Mayweather amongst those. The beef with Mayweather kicked off around Floyd\u2019s exhibition with Logan Paul, where Jake infamously stole the boxing legend\u2019s hat and made off with it. Since then, the pair have gone back-and-forth over fights, money, and a whole host of other subjects. Both Jake and Floyd are preparing for their own fights \u2013 with Jake fighting Anderson \u2018The Spider\u2019 Silva and Floyd facing off against Mikuru Asakura \u2013 but \u2018Money\u2019 wouldn\u2019t be against fighting \u2018The Problem Child\u2019 either. Floyd Mayweather wants to fight Jake Paul Speaking to TMZ Sports ahead of his fight with Asakura, Floyd was quizzed on his rivalry with Jake, and noted that while there is a sizeable weight difference, he\u2019d be open to making something happen. \u201cI think he was doing a sitdown on a podcast one time, and he talked about it and he said \u2018I don\u2019t want to do an exhibition against Floyd Mayweather,\u201d Floyd said, referring to Jake. \u201cHe said \u2018I\u2019m only doing real fights.\u2019 And of course, I can\u2019t get high up in weight, but I\u2019ll fight him in a real fight at the weight that I\u2019m at.\u201d Timestamp of 0:10 As noted, the weight difference between the two fighters is pretty massive \u2013 Floyd fights at Welterweight while Jake is at Cruiserweight and even Heavyweight for some bouts. Getting a commission to sign off on that fight in the ring would require some work, and would likely take place outside of the United States. Going the unsanctioned fight route would, obviously, see them both lose out on a lot of money, so who knows if they\u2019ll ever clash. Though, Floyd isn\u2019t completely out of the YouTube boxing world, seeing as there are rumors about him fighting Deji.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
