Jake Paul mocks Floyd Mayweather for getting a black eye against YouTuber and vows to KO boxing legend in two rounds
JAKE PAUL has vowed to knock Floyd Mayweather out in two rounds after the boxing legend started a war of words.
Mayweather was appearing on Jimmy Fallon’s talk show when he was quizzed on Paul’s controversial fight with Mike Tyson.
And he said: “I don’t really know where to go with this subject because if I say something I’m going to get backlash.
“No matter what I say, it’s not right. But basically, when you’re boxing for free you can have millions and millions and millions, hundreds of millions of views.
“But when you’re watching Floyd Mayweather, you have to pay! I mean, I did pay-per-view numbers. Check the record.”
Mayweather, 48, retired in 2017 after beating UFC icon Conor McGregor, 36, in a bout that sold 4.4MILLION PPVs.
But he has continued to box in exhibition bouts since against stars of the boxing, MMA and social media world.
That included bouts against YouTubers Logan Paul, 28, and Deji, also 28, who is the brother of KSI.
And Mayweather boasted how he could make light work of Logan’s brother Jake – who is 11-1 as a boxer.
He said: “Easy. Easy. Too easy. At 48, too easy.”

Paul responded to the clip: “You bum. Deji gave you a black eye in an event that had 4,000 people in it. Deji hahahah.
“I would knock you out in 2 rounds and you can’t sniff Mike Tyson’s toe.”
Deji gave Mayweather a shiner in their 2022 Dubai exhibition – but also made Paul bleed from the nose despite losing in 2018.
And Deji responded with a picture of Paul bloodied from the nose: “I also did this to you. Me hahahahha.”
Paul recently saw talks to fight Mexican great Canelo Alvarez, 34, collapse as he now prepares to announce his next fight.
And Mayweather’s last exhibition – against the grandson of infamous mob boss John Gotti – went the distance.
