    Well Floyd, you got a gift decision against Castillo, dodgy ones against Maidana and De La Hoya, and some are not sure about the Pacquiao one. But, he's a great defensive boxer.

    Yes, Pacman fights the likes of Thurman and Spence, while Mayweather does exhibitions, but ok, money money.

      Mayweather & fans think 50-0 is all it takes to be the best in history. They conveniently forget Sugar Ray Robinson, Roberto Duran, Julio Cesar Chavez, Finito Lopez, etc. Mayweather is up there with them but he only had 50 fights so. Chavez had 89 or so before he lost, Robinson too.

        So what happens if Floyd hits this guy with his best s**t and dude keeps coming at him like a freight train. Lol.

        Floyd might need all his card carrying Floyd boys to cheer him on to victory, or make excuses if this guys does better than expected. Lol

          Floyd saying "50 other fighters were confident"....I guess he forgot the tally is at 48 since a few were rematches.

            Nothing happens because Floyd isn’t a one-dimensional puncher. If anything I see Mayweather stabbing Paul with jabs to the body while Logan shoots his load early on. After that I see him toying with Paul for as long as he wants.

              I am just saying. This is still boxing where anything can happen, unless the fix is in of course. But. Dude was a solid 30 lbs.over Floyd at the weigh in. Has height and reach. Wasn't the Floyd boys crying if anyone suggested Floyd fight GGG at 160 saying he was too small. Floyd ain't no spring chicken either. He could have Money in no man's land just by overusing a stiff jab. Floyd can't keep depending on these guys gassing out. Even the rope a dope isn't a good idea with a guy that size coming at ya. Lol

                  I would agree if Logan Paul was a seasoned boxer but he’s not. Yes he has height and reach but is he even capable of using it? I don’t think there will be any fix because Logan Paul already has money and pulling off a miracle will explode his popularity into the stratosphere. And yes, Floyd is an old man by boxing standards but you can’t lose to another YouTuber and then beat Floyd Mayweather two years later, without any fights in between. It takes more than a training camp to make that much of a leap.

                  If I’m wrong then I will be the first to admit it but I don’t see Logan Paul standing a chance. It’s a boxing match, not a bar fight so it’s not a simple matter of weight.
