The year 2021 has some intriguing fights stacked already. One such fight among the same is Floyd Mayweather vs Logan Paul’s charismatic exhibition bout. Earlier, the duo was supposed to fight each other on February 20th, but the bout somehow fell through.

Despite that, both Paul and Mayweather assured their fans of staging this fight in the mightiest way later this year. In fact, the Youtuber turned boxer, Logan Paul, is leaving no stones unturned in preparations for the ‘Money’ fight.

He even took some boxing lessons from the young gun Ryan Garcia. Garcia posted the whole video on his own YouTube channel, wherein he was seen teaching the ‘Maverick’ how to counter Floyd Mayweather’s greatest in-ring weapon, the pull counter.

Garcia and Paul trained side by side, and the young gun taught Paul much more than just tackling Mayweather’s best shot.

Mayweather has dispatched countless opponents with his strong pull-counter technique. He looks for one weakness in his opponent and then launches his favorite shot with all his might.

This technique gave ‘Pretty Boy’ a lot of momentum and success in the ring and he will look to do the same against the lanky Logan Paul.
