Logan Paul claims Floyd Mayweather owes him as much as £4million for exhibition fight

Logan Paul has again alleged that he is owed at least $2million (£1.6m) and possibly as much as $5m (£4m) by Floyd Mayweather for the duo's exhibition bout last year.

He also insists that it was Mayweather's team who offered him a rematch earlier this year - not the other way around, as the boxing legend claimed last week. The original fight drew over 1million viewers on pay-per-view and was considered something of a financial success, but the contest was lacklustre and likely wouldn't draw as well a second time.

Paul, 0-1 as a professional after losing to fellow YouTuber KSI in his sole fight, upset the odds by going the eight-round distance with Mayweather, with no winner being announced. But he had been allowed to weigh in 35lb heavier than his opponent as part of a series of strange work-around rules to make the mismatch more even.
