Recently, in an episode of ‘Beyond the Fight,’ UFC legend Chael Sonnen reflected his thoughts on ‘Logan Paul suing Floyd Mayweather.’ Sonnen made a bold remark targeting ‘The Best Ever’s’ promotion company ‘Mayweather’s Promotion’ and his net worth.

Sonnen said, “This is one hell of a thing, and I really don’t want to do that to Floyd. If Floyd owes money and he didn’t pay it, it’s going to crush his reputation. But the money team isn’t real and the only thing that’s less real than the money team is the exaggeration of Floyd Mayweather’s net worth.”

Notably, ‘The Maverick’ has accused ‘Pretty Boy’ on several occasions of not paying his money.
