Jake Paul’s ‘Gotcha Hat’ moment with Floyd Mayweather
From the initial days, Jake Paul was always controversy king and loved to be at the center of attraction, which may be the reason for him being so popular. In April 2021, Paul’s brother, Logan Paul, appeared in the ring with Mayweather for an exhibition fight. In that fight, neither of the parties won the match, and the fight took to the full 8 rounds. But the real fight surged before the match when Jake Paul went too far.
“Absolutely, absolutely man. Get the barb outta here. I’m my own boss,” said Floyd Mayweather while arguing with Jake Paul. That time Paul might be goading him to be in another fight. But the event took another turn, and Paul turned the whole table with his next act.
All of a sudden, Paul took the cap off Mayweather’s head and said, “Gotcha Hat”. Not just once, but he repeated several times. It was too offensive for a boxer like Mayweather.
