Floyd Mayweather\u2019s exhibition match with Logan Paul became one of the most anticipated influencer boxing matches to date, pitting one of YouTube\u2019s biggest personalities against one of boxing\u2019s greatest fighters of all time. However, the match was somewhat sidelined by Jake Paul\u2019s stunt at their May 6 press conference. The younger Paul brother taunted Mayweather before nabbing his hat and running off into the crowd, resulting in a massive brawl that left the YouTuber with a bloody mouth and a bruised eye. The incident caused Logan Paul to amp up his personal security as a result, noting that Mayweather had threatened to \u201ckill\u201d Jake over the scuffle. &#8220;&#8221;Got your hat!&#8221;&#8221; Floyd Mayweather &#038; Jake Paul got into a scuffle at the #MayweatherPaul press conference \ud83e\udd2fpic.twitter.com\/uFEueh6FWk \u2014 Dexerto (@Dexerto) May 6, 2021 While Jake has called out just about any and every high profile fighter out there, a bout with Mayweather would be a crowning jewel in his already impressive professional record\u2026 but Mayweather isn\u2019t up to the task unless Jake meets a certain condition. In a statement to author and YouTuber Rob Moore, Mayweather claimed that, if he were to have a \u201creal fight\u201d with Jake, the influencer would have to get down to his weight class. \u201cJake Paul talked about me and him fighting in a real fight,\u201d he said. \u201cIf it\u2019s a real fight, then I\u2019ll go down to my real fighting weight class, which is 147 pounds or 154 pounds. If Jake Paul can come down to 154 pounds, then we can see his skills.\u201d (Topic begins at 2:24) It\u2019s notable that Mayweather fought in multiple weight divisions, from Lightweight to Light Middleweight. For now, it\u2019s looking like Mayweather wants Jake to get down to Super Welterweight\u2026 although, as of his last fight with Ben Askren, Paul weighed in at 190 1\/2 lbs. At 6\u20191\u2033, it might be a bit unrealistic to ask Paul to lose 36 lbs\u2026 and with Mayweather agreeing to a rematch with Conor McGregor, it might be some time before we see this fight come to light, if ever.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Floyd Mayweather willing to fight Jake Paul under one condition YouTube: Rob Moore, Jake PaulFloyd Mayweather is fresh out of the ring from his fight with YouTuber Logan Paul \u2014 but he\u2019s got another influencer vying for his attention already, and he has a pretty big condition, should they ever face off.
