It's official—Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Logan Paul will fight this year.
The retired legendary boxer announced the exhibition match via his Instagram on Tuesday, setting the date and location for June 6 at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami. Mayweather posted, “JUNE 6, 2021!!!! #MIAMI Me and Logan Paul will be fighting at the Hardrock Stadium. @mayweatherpromotions @fanmio and @showtimeboxing have come together to bring an epic Event!!! Tickets will be going on sell next week…”.
Paul is 0-1 as a fighter, his lone bout a split decision loss to fellow YouTuber KSI. But Paul weighed in at just under 200 pounds pre-fight — Mayweather was just 150 pounds in his final fight against Conor McGregor in 2017.
