BOXING LEGEND Floyd Mayweather will fight YouTube star Logan Paul on June 6 at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida, Mayweather Promotions said in a Tweet.
The exhibition match is set to be screened on Showtime pay-per-view.
“Logan Paul and I are going to fight at Hard Rock Stadium. Mayweather Promotions, Fanmio and Showtime will team up to give you an epic event,” Mayweather said in an Instagram post.
The fight was originally scheduled for February 20 but it was postponed due to COVID-19-related restrictions that wouldn’t allow a full stadium, according to Fox News.
The five-time world champion must weigh in under 160 pounds and Paul under 190 pounds, according to the fighting terms.
No details were mentioned about how many rounds will they both fight.
The result of the fight will not count toward Mayweather’s record because it’s an exhibition match.

The last time Mayweather stepped into the ring was in 2018 when he was fighting kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa in an exhibition match that Mayweather won.
He also fought against UFC star and martial arts champ Conor McGregor in 2017 as his last professional fight, according to Fox News.
Paul however has a lighter fighting portfolio as he participated in only one fight in his entire career in 2019. He lost that fight to YouTube star KSI whose real name is Olajide William Olatunj.
