Floyd Mayweather might have had the worst fighting experience of his career against Logan Paul, as he failed to secure a win. The eight-round battle went to the distance, and we saw the YouTuber get violent on Mayweather several times. Although ‘Money’ earned a lucrative payday, several boxing pundits, including Eddie Hearn, have ridiculed his stance.
The Matchroom Chairman expressed concern for the unbeaten boxer in a chat with DAZN. Eddie Hearn said, “The person this looks worse on than anybody – and he probably don’t care – is Floyd. Because I thought Floyd looked quite terrible. If you’re a young fan, you look and go, ‘What? He was the best ever?’”
