Logan Paul Vs Floyd Mayweather Date Announced
YouTube star Logan Paul and boxing legend Floyd Mayweather have officially announced the date for their long-rumored upcoming fight.
After two bouts with fellow YouTuber KSI in the boxing ring, it looks like Logan Paul is taking his fighting skills to the next level by taking on legendary undefeated pro boxer Floyd Mayweather.
The two clashed on Twitter, but nothing was confirmed, even after news outlets reported the fight ahead of time. Now the deal is finally done and we have all the information you need to tune in to this unprecedented event.
When will Logan Paul vs Floyd Mayweather fight?
Fear not, fans won't have to wait long for this. The exhibition match between Logan Paul and Floyd Mayweather is scheduled for February 20, 2021, which means that these fighters have just over two months to prepare.
Where to watch Logan Paul vs Floyd Mayweather
While previous YouTube boxing matches have taken place on DAZN - as seen with Jake Paul vs. AnEsonGib and Logan Paul vs. KSI 2 - Logan Paul vs. Floyd Mayweather will take place via Fanmio Boxing, an offshoot of the streaming service Fanmio.
It's also worth noting that the fight is currently listed as a "Super Show". The rules for this tournament have yet to be released, but it is clear that this is not a true "official" fight.
How much does it cost to watch Logan Paul vs Floyd Mayweather?
Fanmio has already listed their prices for the pay-per-view event starting at $24,99.
However, after selling 1 million PPV, the price will rise to $34,99. Spectators better come early while they can - prices will rise to $29 after Dec. 59,99 and to $11 on Feb. 69,99.
As mentioned earlier, Logan Paul and Floyd Mayweather have been fighting among themselves for a long time; at the end of November boasted that he could beat Mayweather in a street fight.
Mayweather was quick to fight back in a poignant tweet, explicitly implying that Paul would be able to get a job before going back to perform in Japan. Most recently, Logan stated that the reason the fight hadn't been set in stone yet was because Floyd "can't read" - another in a long line of insults the couple have thrown at each other.
It seems like the time has finally come and it has led to one of the biggest fights in YouTube boxing history. Who would have thought that a bitter rivalry between the two biggest YouTube stars would lead to this?
