The allegations made by Jake Paul seem to be a reply to a recent Instagram post by Floyd Mayweather. Laying out his plans for 2021, Mayweather stated that Jake Paul will be his next target if Paul gets past former UFC welterweight Ben Askren on April 17th. Also on Mayweather’s hitlist for an exhibition bout is famous rapper 50 cent, who has been a nemesis of ‘Money’ for more than a decade now.
Jake Paul has stated that Mayweather needs to first take on his elder brother Logan Paul. However, unlike Logan’s exhibition bout with Floyd, Jake Paul is not interested in such a fight which will not put Mayweather’s undefeated record in jeopardy.
When will Floyd Mayweather fight Jake Paul in 2021?
Logan Paul seems to be the first opponent for Floyd Mayweather to kick-off his 2021 season. The fight was announced through an Instagram post by Logan Paul unveiling the poster for the bout. It was mentioned that the fight will take place on February 20th. However, due to undisclosed negotiation issues, the match was postponed and a new date has not been revealed as of yet.
If both the parties sign the dotted line and the bout takes place in the first half of 2021, it can be expected that Floyd Mayweather will soon trade blows with the younger of the Paul brothers as well.
