Logan Paul admits his brother Jake was "delusional" for thinking he beat Floyd Mayweather in their exhibition fight.
Paul went eight rounds with former five-weight world champion Mayweather in an unscored fight last June. Although no official winner was announced, Mayweather out-landed Paul despite throwing 100 punches fewer than the YouTube star.
Jake was ringside for the fight and backed his brother, screaming at the final bell: "Logan's got your f****ng career! 50-1, f*** all of you. Logan Paul just beat Floyd Mayweather, got your f****ng career."
Paul thinks he had "no business" even landing a punch on Mayweather, let alone winning rounds against the ring legend. Mayweather has insisted he could have knocked out Paul in the first round despite going the distance in the fight.

"A YouTuber has no business making real contact, and I won rounds," Logan said on the Flagrant podcast. "Not one, not two. [Jake] took it too far. I felt like he was being a little delusional, but at least I won three rounds. One thousand percent, I put money that I won at least three rounds."
Paul hasn't fought since his clash with Mayweather after suffering a gruesome hand injury that required a 40mm screw to repair. Mayweather competed in a one-sided exhibition fight against former sparring partner Don Moore last month.
A year has passed since Paul and Mayweather fought and the YouTube star claims he still hasn't been fully paid. Paul thought he was guaranteed a £14million purse for the fight but claims Mayweather still owes him several million.
Mayweather has told Paul to be patient and that he will receive the outstanding money. MMA analyst Chael Sonnen has told Mayweather he should produce proof that he has paid Paul, questioning what the YouTube star would have to gain by making a false accusation.
"This is real easy, you have a banking app on your phone. Pull that up and in 15 seconds you can show the transfer, boom it's right there or just show the cashed cheque. I'm quite sure it would have been a wire transfer, either way you'd have a document of it," Sonnen said on his YouTube channel.
"Maybe the numbers weren't quite what Logan thought they were going to be, you're talking about an auditing situation or an accounting error. That's very different than not being paid, [Logan] saying he's not been paid and Floyd's saying he was."
