After a series of exciting undercard fights, the Floyd Mayweather vs. Logan Paul bout is finally here. And given the build-up to the bout and the event itself, it was certain that we would see something out of the ordinary. This came when Logan Paul walked out for the bout.

The event already had many talking points, including a wet canvas. However, this could still not be the biggest talking point. One aspect that many would have missed was Paul’s choice of jewelry for the walkout.

The 0-1 boxer walked out wearing a fairly subdued gold gown and trunks. However, the real attraction of his walkout was his chain. ‘The Maverick’ wore what looked like his $2 million Pokemon card around his neck as he stepped through the ropes.

Logan Paul’s decision to wear a Pokemon card was not the only talking point about the walkouts. Famous rapper group Migos, who won two Grammys in 2018, performed by themselves after Paul’s walkout.

Mayweather himself walked out in typical Mayweather fashion with a huge entourage. However, his hat caught the attention of many fans. Hats have been a big topic in the build-up to the fight. And ‘TBE’ did not just wear a hat, but wore an OnlyFans hat.

This move from ‘Money Mayweather’ is obviously to promote his newly formed OnlyFans account. However, other than the hat, the superstar boxer did not do anything over the top. He looked like a picture of focus as he made his way to the ring.
