Floyd Mayweather isn’t worried about Logan Paul, ahead of their special exhibition clash in February 2021. The event will bring Mayweather out of a 3-year-long retirement; for he has not stepped foot in the ring ever since his TKO win against Conor McGregor in 2017.
While Floyd Mayweather is the ultimate favorite against Logan Paul, some factors might bring an itch to the odds. ‘The Maverick’ is massive. He is taller than Mayweather and also has a serious advantage in weight.
It is no surprise that Logan Paul would try to use those factors in his favor. But Mayweather isn’t intimidated that easily. Instead, he is confident about vanquishing the YouTuber in their upcoming faceoff.
