Floyd Mayweather dismisses "bull****" claim Logan Paul wasn't paid for exhibition

Floyd Mayweather has hit out at YouTube star Logan Paul by dismissing his "bull****" claim that he wasn't paid for their exhibition.

The boxing legend fought Paul in a hugely-successful exhibition last year which is said to have earned him £52million and his counterpart £15million. However, Paul claimed after the fight that he is yet to be paid in full for the meeting and has stated on multiple occasions that he intends to sue the undefeated former champion.

Mayweather has now leapt to his own defence for the second time, accusing Paul of searching for another payday. "This is the guy who said he didn't get paid which we know is truly false, which is why I don't entertain the bull**** a lot of the time," Mayweather said at the press conference to announce his latest exhibition fight, against Japanese mixed martial artist Mikuru Asakura.
