Even though Mayweather is toeing out of retirement for his bout against Paul, analysts and onlookers have been overwhelmingly favoring the 50-0-0 fighter to the 0-1 YouTuber. There\u2019ve been a ton reactions to the exhibition game, and not many are seen as encouraging for the Maverick camp. But that\u2019s not going to discourage Paul from training until they step into the ring together and let the gloves do the talking. And it\u2019s specifically because of how Paul has been training that Majlak thinks the fight could be a lot more entertaining than what people are expecting. After promoting the event on his Instagram, a skeptic chimed in. They called the entire fight a \u201cjoke\u201d and expected \u201cMayweather to defensively toy with an internet boxer.\u201d That\u2019s when Majlak got the inclination that Paul was being underestimated. \u201cLogan takes boxing more seriously than Floyd does nowadays,\u201d he said. \u201cKid spars gold gloves every morning and watches film every single night.\u201d According to the ImPaulsive co-host, even though he\u2019s just being labeled as an entertainer, Paul\u2019s been showing a ton of grit in the lead up to one of the biggest headlining bouts a beginning fighter could ask for. Majlak is confident the YouTuber-turned-boxer will put on a respectable performance in the exhibition match. In defending his friends he said, \u201cI think you\u2019d be surprised just how capable an \u2018internet boxer\u2019 really is.\u201d Paul is going to go toe-to-toe with one of the most dangerous men to ever step into a ring. With only one official match in his history, Paul, 25, will have his youth and more prep time than Mayweather \u2013 seeing as he\u2019s been looking forward to this match for a while. Mayweather, 50, of course, will need no qualifiers to his boxing prowess. Though he was comfortable in retirement, the perfect-record fighter will have a wealth of experience to draw from. Fanmio Boxing will hold the exhibition between Paul and Mayweather on February 20, 2021.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mike Majlak defends \u201cinternet boxer\u201d Logan Paul over Mayweather fight Mike Majlak \/ Logan Paul InstagramLogan Paul has been getting flack for being an \u201cinternet boxer\u201d going up against the lossless Floyd Mayweather in their upcoming exhibition match, but friend and fellow YouTuber Mike Majlak thinks the Maverick is going to surprise some people.
