In June 2021, inside the Hard Rock Stadium, Miami Gardens, Logan Paul squared off with Floyd Mayweather in an exhibition fight. As the bout was an exhibition, no winner was declared in the end. However, despite being a much shorter competitor in the ring, Mayweather, at times, had Paul in trouble. Although Paul was much taller and heavier than Floyd, the latter was more accurate with his shots.

Recently, there was a piece of news that permeated the idea of a Deji vs. Floyd Mayweather exhibition fight. According to sources, the fight is likely to take place in November 2022. Logan Paul, in his recent encounter with FightHype, expressed as a fact Deji would knock out Floyd Mayweather whom he met last year in the ring.

Paul was talking about his top five boxers of the present time. Speaking of the same, he named Deji and added that he would knock out Floyd.

 

In the brief Instagram clip Paul said, “I’mma let Jake have it. I’mma let Jake have it, for sure. I think he’s number one right now, like you know. Look at his record, numbers don’t lie. I’m number 2, okay? See I gotta say KSI’s number 3, right? He’s got a better record than me so, f*** it, I don’t want any beef. KSI is number 2, I’m number 3, whatever. Salt Papi is number 1. Jake Paul is number 2. Deji is number 3, and he’s gonna knockout Floyd Mayweather and that’s a fact.”

So far, Deji has only one victory in boxing since he turned pro. He fought against fellow YouTuber and rival YouTube rival Fousey at London’s O2 arena. Although he has only one victory, Logan Paul is not the only to believe he can beat Mayweather. Elder brother KSI also asserts that Deji can win.

KSI said, “Deji is just a man on a mission. I mean we will see if it is true, but if it is true then f*** me I am going. I am there. “I need to see him beat the f*** out of Mayweather! Or at least survive anyway.”
