‘The Maverick’ said – “I have not been paid in full, that is a fact. There also have been alleged under the table cash deals that I was excluded from, even though my name and likeness was used to sell our fight.”
“And it sucks, and he came out recently and said something like this is, this is the name of the game, this is how it works in boxing but I don’t know if it is, I don’t know if that’s true, I think after you fight, you should probably get paid, I don’t think it takes this long to count the money,” Paul added.
In the above interview, Logan Paul also mocked Mayweather’s statements on their exhibition fight being a ‘legalized bank robbery’.
Paul went an extra mile fighting Mayweather, and he even withstood the wrath of the legend’s prowess. Accordingly, Logan Paul wants to bag the amount he deserved for this fight because he put in an extensive hard work for the contest.
