Logan Paul, until now, has fought only once professionally. This fight was back in 2019 against fellow YouTuber KSI. Although the YouTuber ended up on the losing vertical in this fight, he still kept himself in the news with his antics.

He is the undeniable star of celebrity boxers. Hence, after seeing his aura and fan base, Mayweather decided to contend with him in what is expected to be a highly entertaining boxing bout. However, Paul, as a box, is still green. Hence, facing someone as elite as Floyd Mayweather might put him in a vulnerable state.

Yet, he’s highly optimistic about putting up a show in this fight. And for that, he’s put himself in deep waters with his rigorous and consuming training sessions.
