A few days back, ‘The Problem Child’ Jake Paul made it to the news headlines by entering a fierce tussle with boxing great, Floyd Mayweather. The pair came face-to-face in Mayweather’s press conference alongside Logan Paul. However, the brawl between ‘TBE’ and Jake Paul stole the headlines and became a hot topic in the fight world.

Recently, UFC’s heavyweight sensation Derrick Lewis interacted with The Schmo. Here, he gave a hilarious take on the entire scenario between Floyd Mayweather and Jake Paul.

Lewis said, “‘Hey, ‘I got your hat’ that was funny!”

Later, the journalist asked ‘The Black Beast’ what would he do if someone steals his hat. “I’d probably make it a scene like Floyd Mayweather. Especially if I didn’t shave. If I go a whole week without shaving, then I look like Bozo – the clown, doing an interview. So I have to chase them well,” he responded.

Although the UFC heavyweight star gave an amusing take on the same, the actual matter between Mayweather and Jake Paul was extremely serious.

No one prior to this had seen such a furious persona of Floyd Mayweather, who fumed over Paul just because he stole his hat. The brawl between the two only escalated, prompting security guards to jump in to separate them.

Before the scuffle, in the press conference, an already furious ‘Pretty Boy’ even admitted that he would fight Jake Paul and Logan Paul on the same night.
