Logan Paul explains why he beat Floyd Mayweather despite fight not being scored

Logan Paul has insisted he won his fight with Floyd Mayweather after his rival failed to deliver on his KO promise.

The YouTube star went the eight-round distance in a hugely successful exhibition clash with the boxing legend last June, which is believed to have sold one million pay-per-view buys. Paul had drawn and lost his two prior fights in the ring against YouTube rival KSI, but viewed his clash with Mayweather as a huge success having failed to be dropped in the showdown.

During the build-up to the fight, the former champion had promised fans that he would knock out the content creator after several verbal barbs had been traded throughout the promotion of the event. But Paul insists there is no way in which Mayweather can suggest he picked up victory despite an official result not being declared.
