“Still, you know, he can fight. I told y’all he is white and he can fight. He got legs, he could move around, he could box, so I stand by. He is white and he can fight,” Shannon Briggs said.

Logan Paul lost his first professional bout against YouTuber KSI that took place in November last year. However, according to Shannon Briggs, we might see a better version of Logan Paul ahead of the hugely anticipated exhibition bout against undefeated kingpin Floyd Mayweather.
“All you got to do is put than hands together which he is looking more and more comfortable.”
Floyd Mayweather will return to the ring after his exhibition bout that took place in Japan last year. Mayweather’s last professional fight still remains the bout against former dual champion Conor McGregor.
However, as anticipated as this bout is, it will be fought under exhibition rules.
