Logan Paul Claims Floyd Mayweather Still Owes Him $1.5 Million From 2021 Fight

Logan Paul claims he's still waiting on a significant payday from his exhibition bout with Floyd Mayweather. Speaking on a recent episode of The Iced Coffee Hour podcast, Paul alleged that Mayweather has yet to pay him approximately $1.5 million stemming from their 2021 showdown. "I didn't make as much money as you'd think fighting Floyd," Paul said. "He still owes me a million and a half, maybe more." According to Paul, the financial dispute traces back to promotional rights tied to the exhibition. "He pre-sold the fight using my likeness to some company I think in Dubai for $10 million cash. We ended up doing the fight in the [United States] with a different company. That's the company that put on the fight, but he sold our fight with my name and likeness to someone else in Dubai for $10 million cash Our deal was 15 percent and he smoked me... That company that paid him that money is suing him.” Paul added, "He has a bunch of legal trouble at the moment. I don't think I'm ever getting the money The 2021 exhibition was one of four boxing appearances for Paul and remains his only exhibition match. Since then, he's fought just once, earning a disqualification win over Dillon Danis in 2023. Outside the ring, Paul has built a lucrative career in WWE and business ventures, which may soften the financial impact of the alleged unpaid balance.
