Floyd Mayweather's Summary of Logan Paul (Sport1)

After Floyd Mayweather's showdown with Logan Paul, the former world champion boasted that it was a "legal bank robbery", given the large sums of money he brought in from the battle, and indeed, in the United States it is reported that the proceeds from the battle were impressive. The



proceeds from the pay-per-view are only part of the money this fight rolled out, like sponsorships and commercials, with Mayweather claiming to receive huge sums just for the commercials on his pants ($ 30 million, he said). Of course, the hall in Miami was also filled to capacity, when in the end the eight-round battle ended without a winner, given the fact that there was no knockout.

The fight received quite a bit of criticism, given the fact that the last rounds were with very little action, with the two mostly defending themselves and not delivering the goods, and there were even shouts of contempt in the hall.

However, Mayweather has proven that he continues to be an impressive marketing machine - even after retiring.

"It is no coincidence that my nickname is 'Money', I have worked hard over the years to reach a certain level, where every event works," Mayweather said at the end, "People say, 'Money does not buy heritage'. But only the advertisement on my pants put me in "$ 30 million. So who really is the smartest man in boxing? When it comes to legal bank robbery, I'm the best of them all."

It should be noted that if he did put $ 50 million in his pocket on the fight, then in one evening he earned more than the annual salary of athletes like Ronaldo, Leo Messi and LeBron James.



At the same time, the boxing world does not know how to treat this fight, with real fights failing to draw a large crowd (certainly not new) while shows of past boxers manage to bring in a million (allegedly) pay-per-view purchases - far greater than many formal encounters between Senior boxers.



As you may recall, recently Mike Tyson was preparing for a showcase fight, and Evander Holyfield and Oscar de la Hoya were also mentioned on the subject of showcase fights. Many watched with concern in the first minutes of the fight as Logan Paul pounced on 44-year-old Mayweather with blows. Although he defended well, he seemed vulnerable. In footage released a day after the fight, Mayweather was heard complaining to his coach that he was having a hard time beating his opponent.



Mauricio Suleiman, head of the WBC Boxing Association, said: "There is a fear of seeing boxers return to the ring after many years of retirement. Very careful medical tests are required before such fights to minimize damage. We must be open to changes and this reality, "Themselves as they enter the arena. These fights have a large crowd, but what if someone who has not trained for a long time is badly injured? Must be careful. Mayweather met an amateur boxer, and failed to knock him down. He was not physically able. Must be careful." .
