Boxing legend Floyd Mayweather Jr is set to go toe-to-toe with YouTube sensation Logan Paul in an exhibition bout this Sunday.
Mayweather, who retired from boxing a perfect 50-0 record, will face off with 0-1 YouTuber Paul, who lost on his professional debut to fellow internet star KSI.
In what can only be labelled as a bizarre boxing exhibition bout, Mayweather – a five-weight world champion – will collide with Paul over eight rounds at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens.
Mayweather last fought back in August 2017 after stopping UFC star Conor McGregor in the tenth round – cementing himself as one of the best to ever step inside a boxing ring.
And in the build-up to this weekend’s fight, Mayweather has claimed to have made at least $30m – without even throwing a punch yet.
“I’m fighting a YouTuber who thinks he’s a real fighter and I’m getting crazy money for it – I’ve already made $30m just building up to this fight,” he bragged to reporters at Versace Mansion in Miami Beach.
So, with the fight now on the horizon, what time will fans in the UK be able to watch it?
