Now this one will leave boxing purists feeling a little knocked out.

Hall of Fame boxing champ Floyd Mayweather has agreed to come out of retirement…again…and take on YouTube star Logan Paul in an exhibition bout at Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium in early June.

It’s remarkable on so many fronts, firstly Mayweather has “retired” several times, meaning he’s come out retirement many times. His career record is 50 and zero.

So why is he doing it? Well his nickname is “money” and he about to earn a whole lot.

Mayweather famously fought UFC star Conor McGregor in 2017 and took part in a bizarre clash against Japanese kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa on New Year’s Eve in 2018..

Logan Paul is a 26 year old youtube star with more than 20 million subscribers.

Social media has gone absolutely crazy, already many comments focusing on how embarrassing this is for Mayweather and boxing more broadly..
