Floyd Mayweather Jr.’s heavily anticipated exhibition match with YouTube celebrity Logan Paul is just days away — but for boxing legend Mike Tyson, the end result of the fight should not surprise anybody.
Tyson, 54, told Reuters in an article published Friday that Mayweather will undoubtedly come out on top.
“Floyd is going to kill this guy, guy,” Tyson said laughing. “Floyd remains in the gym, he is never out of shape. He is going to have much fun winning this cash.”
There is a major size discrepancy between the two boxers. Mayweather, at 5-foot-8, is expected to weigh in at approximately 160 pounds while Paul, at 6-foot-2, weighed in at 199.4 pounds in his 2019 debut match.
According to ESPN, the Florida State Boxing Commission could not, by rule, regulate the bout as an official pro boxing game due to the size and expertise difference.
Mayweather went 50-0 in his professional career while Paul is 0-1.
The exhibition match is set for Sunday at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, but ESPN reports that there is not going to be judges ringside and also an official winner won’t be named.
