Jake Paul claims Floyd Mayweather hired \u201cgangsters\u201d to have him killed YouTube: MILLION DOLLA WORTH OF GAME, FULL SEND PODCASTYouTube star-turned-pro boxer Jake Paul has levied a shocking accusation toward 50-0 champ Floyd \u2018Money\u2019 Mayweather, claiming the boxing legend had put a \u2018hit\u2019 out on him due to his \u2018Gotcha Hat\u2019 stunt in May. Jake Paul is the self-proclaimed \u2018Problem Child\u2019 of the internet for a reason. Aside from his career as a bombastic YouTuber, Paul isn\u2019t shy of calling out anyone and everyone in the combat sports world for a potential bout \u2014 even to the point of putting himself in harm\u2019s way. In May of this year, Paul notably sauntered up to Floyd Mayweather just after his press conference with older brother Logan Paul, who Mayweather was set to face off with in a month\u2019s time. In true \u2018Problem Child\u2019 fashion, Jake snatched the hat from Floyd\u2019s head, chanting, \u201cGotcha hat!\u201d \u2014 a phrase he almost immediately emblazoned onto merchandise that fell into the hands of fans around the world. “”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 Their ensuing scuffle resulted in a massive brawl that had Mayweather claiming he would \u201ckill\u201d Jake over his hat stunt. During an episode of the NELK Boys\u2019 FULL SEND podcast on September 8, Jake alleged that Mayweather had actually hired \u201cgangsters\u201d to \u201ckill\u201d him as a result of his taunting. \u201cHe was trying to get me killed behind the scenes, for sure,\u201d Jake claimed. \u201cHe was calling, like, \u2018the gangsters,\u2019 because we were in Miami at the time. He was, like, calling the \u2018street people,\u2019 \u2019cause my security is tapped into the street people.\u201d \u201cThey were like, \u2018Yo, you guys gotta be f**king careful. He\u2019s trying to do something,’\u201d he continued. \u201cSo, whatever the f**k that meant, or means. \u2026 I was like, \u2018Alright, if this is how I die, this is how I die.’\u201d (Topic begins at 42:19) Shortly after Jake\u2019s scuffle with Mayweather made headlines, Logan claimed in a subsequent interview that he\u2019d upped his security due to the champ\u2019s threats, posting bodyguards around them \u201ceverywhere at all times.\u201d Jake has just come off his split-decision victory against Tyron Woodley and is currently seeking a fight with Tommy Fury\u2026 but there\u2019s no telling if another bout between Mayweather and another Paul brother will happen someday in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
