On May 6 \u2014 a month prior to their bout \u2014 Logan\u2019s little bro, fellow YouTuber Jake Paul, began antagonizing his opponent. Throughout their press conference that day, Jake taunted Mayweather, touching his leg while he was on stage and even untying his shoe before confronting him after the interviews were over. After getting in Mayweather\u2019s face, Jake snatched the champ\u2019s ball cap and ran off, chanting the now-infamous phrase, \u201cGotcha hat!\u201d “”Got your hat!”” Floyd Mayweather & Jake Paul got into a scuffle at the #MayweatherPaul press conference \ud83e\udd2fpic.twitter.com\/uFEueh6FWk \u2014 Dexerto (@Dexerto) May 6, 2021 Mayweather was understandably furious, and chased after the self-proclaimed \u201cProblem Child,\u201d even threatening to \u201ckill\u201d him over the incident; but come June 3, the 50-0 champ appeared calm and composed. When asked if he hoped to punish Logan for his little bro\u2019s antics, Mayweather claimed that he wasn\u2019t necessarily looking to settle any kind of grudge. \u201cI don\u2019t really worry about that,\u201d he answered during the June press conference. \u201cThis is easy. It\u2019s what I do. I\u2019m a fighter. I don\u2019t worry about anything. I\u2019ve been pro for years, seen every style, and came out on top.\u201d When asked why he got so angry at Paul, Mayweather claimed that it was all about respect \u2014 which he says Jake didn\u2019t have in regards to him. \u201cI\u2019m not upset at all,\u201d he answered. \u201cMy thing is this\u2026 There\u2019s a difference between respect and disrespect. There was untying my shoe. My children\u2019s mother passed away last year, [an he was] talking about her. Touching my hat. So, it\u2019s all about reciprocation. Treat people how they want to be treated. \u2026Jake Paul has nothing to do with this event.\u201d (Topic begins at 1:50:06) As for his actual opponent, Mayweather says that he similarly isn\u2019t worried about their difference in stature, stating that \u201cI\u2019m fighting a YouTuber who thinks he\u2019s a real fighter!\u201d Fans can tune into Logan Paul vs Floyd Mayweather via Showtime PPV at 5 PM PST on June 6.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
