Logan Paul witnessed a spectacular surge in his finances and global fame when he locked horns with the five-division world champion Floyd Mayweather in an exhibition boxing scrap in June. The non-professional bout went the distance, with neither man able to score a win.

As no judges were available to pinpoint the bout, they declared it a draw and that clearly didn’t look good for Mayweather. However, it seemed financially beneficial for both men. Per reports, Mayweather bagged around $65 million in one night, while ‘the Maverick’ earned $5 million. However, things seem to be a little different than what we know.

Recently, Logan Paul demanded money from Mayweather and sent several fans into a frenzy. The shocking claim came after Mayweather posted a picture of himself in Russia. Logan Paul re-posted the picture on his IG story with some bizarre Photoshop and threw his demands straight away.

It’s unclear whether this was regarding his in-ring affair with Mayweather. But the current scenario offers a valid picture that cites some unfinished business between ‘TBE’ and ‘The Maverick’. Well, for now, Mayweather hasn’t responded to the criticisms and seems to relish his time in Russia.

After his exhibition match against Paul, Mayweather hinted at a full-time retirement from the sport of boxing. Although he dropped clips of his intense pad-work on social media, we may have seen the last of Floyd Mayweather inside the ring. But that hasn’t stopped him from spinning headlines. Mayweather still has a lot of critics to look for and Logan Paul isn’t the only person to have mocked Mayweather in recent times.

Akin to Paul, Conor McGregor’s ally Dillon Danis also took shots at Mayweather. The pictures posted by Danis and Paul were similar, which showed Mayweather wearing no pants. However, Danis’ banter seemed baseless as Mayweather is in no way linked to him.
