It's all about the money!!!!!!!!!
Floyd would fight him at Logan's current weight and start hyping the fight saying he's taking a big risk cause he's up against an opponent much bigger than him....everything to sell the fight.Comment

This would be the 1st time that the media would see Floyd Mayweather as "the good guy" because Logan Paul would definitely be the villain.Comment

But I think you're making too much of the credibility angle. Yeah he could make those fights sound credible to casuals, but they never were to boxing fans. All he had to do was convince casuals - and purely so they would pay to watch. He didn't care how they judged his career as long as they paid up.I'm not even defending Floyd... I'm moreso going off of how he seems to do business. I think it tries to present things half credible for the casual public.
When he was a pro it was about his opponent having a belt or winning their last fight. U notice he never fought anyone coming off a loss.
When he was retired it was about fighting MMA guys that were dominate in their sport. Most saw through this due to the fact it was boxing rules. But it was fans who wondered if the MMA guy would get mad or forget and react with a leg kick.
With Logan Paul all it is..... He has alot of followers hey guys come watch me beat the shyt out of him for PPV money...... The highlights gonna show Logan fighting KS1.
Going by how he does business or chose opponents in the past lets me know this is just a rumor.
Boxing fans obviously won't judge a fight vs a YouTuber as credible - same as the other exhibitions.
The casuals will watch though. It might just be a different group of casuals.
He appealed to MMA fans. Then kickboxers. Why not YouTubers? Their money is just as good as anyone else's.Comment

Tbh the more I keep seeing this rumor pop up on my apps.... The more I feel like it's gonna happen or at least was seriously considered.
This is "selling stolen cologne out your trunk" level of sleezy lolComment

If it was Canelo or any other active boxer I'd agree. But Floyd isn't a boxer anymore. Business is business.
I don't like it either, but it is what it is.Comment

Yea ik.... Why I didn't trip about the Tenshin exhibition.
I guess I'm sick of seeing Logan Paul main event boxing cardsComment

If it is true, then who is going to order Pay Per Views for this fight? The last I checked Logan Paul is a novice without a large following or fanbase.
Also, who is going to put up the money in order sponsor this event? Some billionaire in New Zealand or Australia? Perhaps it would be one of the Saudi billionaires who sponsored Joshua/Ruiz 2.Comment
