Paul promises to send Mayweather to prison

-

NEW YORK — Logan Paul and Floyd Mayweather met in the boxing ring in June of 2021 and now, almost a year on, they could meet again but this time in a courtroom.

That's because the YouTube star is claiming he hasn't been paid his full fee yet and he is getting fed up.

“No, he has not paid me in full, that is a fact as he is short by a few million,” Logan told TMZ this week.

“We're taking this one to court. See you in the courtroom. Congrats on going to prison, Floyd.”

This isn't the first time that Logan Paul has spoken publicly about not being paid what he believes he is due.

“It's unfortunat­e because it's Floyd ‘Money' Mayweather, Paul explained in an interview with DAZN in March.

“Surely I was going to get my check fairly quickly, right? I'm sure it will come eventually, right? Then I realised Ok, I'm being stung along.

“This is a classic 'Hey, buddy, you're the new guy in this industry, we're gonna puppeteer you however we want with your money so hop on for the ride and shut up.

“But, instead of shutting up, I make fun of him on social media and let everyone know that he doesn't have any money.

“I kind of joke. I'm facetious, and I point the finger at Floyd. But I don't know if it's his fault. Maybe a little bit, right?

“But something tells me Floyd doesn't control where the money goes. Or maybe he does and he's just a f**king a**hole.

“There's an opportunit­y cost with me when I don't have fees that are rightfully mine.

“I'm an entreprene­ur. I'm a businessma­n. I'm creative with my money. The X millions that he hasn't paid me by now could have tripled, quadrupled.

“I'm good with money. I can make more of it if I have a little, a lot.”
