Anybody ever seen the ref of the #MayweatherPaul fight before?! I HAVEN’T! I’m calling it right now(hope I’m wrong)… i got a feeling this is bout to be a rigged “controversy” DQ or loss… #fingerscrossed

Mayweather is selling this fight as competitive. He’s going to carry this guy for a few more rounds and let the bigger guy look like a threat.

I’m confused. I thought Logan said MMA was more difficult. Why so much clinch initiation #MayweatherPaul #FloydvsLogan

It’s crazy to think that Logan Paul (0-1) just made $20M on a boxing exhibition.
WHAT ARE WE DOING WRONG?

Once it gets to certain point of “skill”, size makes a huge difference. I thought Floyd would get a couple KDs and then the KO. But once they were in there you see the size difference and Paul being able to tie him up once in range with Floyd to use his long arms.

Hats off to Logan Paul. He went 8 rounds with greatest boxer ever. Not a good look for Floyd.
