More than familiar with both Mike Tyson and Floyd Mayweather, polarizing pro wrestler Logan Paul seems to have the low-down on how their fight will play out.

Sharing the ring with the unbeaten former multiple-weight champion Floyd Mayweather in an exhibition boxing match back in 2021, content creator Logan Paul fought the Michigan native in a high-profile clash.

And last year, the Ohio native’s younger brother, Jake Paul, welcomed former world heavyweight champion Mike Tyson back to the ring in a professional fight, landing a decision win over the New Yorker.

With Tyson set to continue his comeback tour against historic rival Mayweather, Logan Paul believes he has the inside track on how the clash will play out next spring.

Logan Paul predicts Mike Tyson vs. Floyd Mayweather clash

Set to share the ring next spring, Tyson will finally lock horns with historic enemy Mayweather, with the duo ramping up their rivalry in the aftermath of their bout confirmation.

And having shared the ring with Mayweather in a high-profile exhibition showing, Paul claims to have knowledge on how the clash with play out already.

“Floyd Mayweather is fighting Mike Tyson, it’s crazy,” Paul said on his podcast, IMPAULSIVE. “…They’re both really old, and they both got beat by Paul brothers.

“…Everyone’s gonna watch,” Paul continued. “Who’s not watching Floyd Mayweather and Mike Tyson? Do you wanna know what’s gonna happen? I’ll tell you what’s gonna happen.

“First off, first and foremost, obviously, Floyd Mayweather and Mike Tyson are just robbing the bank. They are collecting a paycheck. As they should ’cause they’re both f—— legends who worked their whole career to make this amazing brand for themselves, known as like the best fighters in the world.

However, while Paul has dropped his two cents in on the clash, a UFC favorite has suggested this expected exhibition clash may live up to fans’ expectations.

Joe Rogan claims Mike Tyson may try to KO Floyd Mayweather

The latest in a laundry list of those in the fighting community to weigh in on the spring clash of Tyson and Mayweather is long-time UFC color commentator Joe Rogan.

And as far as the veteran caller is concerned, given the notable spat between Tyson and Mayweather, it would be unwise to rule out an attempted knockout finish from the former when he gets his hands on ‘Money’.

“Mike Tyson and Floyd Mayweather don’t like each other and they have not liked each other forever,” Rogan explained to co-hosts Brendan Schaub, Bryan Callen and Gordon Ryan. “If there is a fight that might be real [it would be this one].

“Like, Mike Tyson might say ‘I’m going to knock this motherf—er out or I’m going to try to knock this motherf—er out… If you look at the Roy Jones Jr. fight or the Jake Paul fight, no disrespect, they looked like they were sparring and it looked like there was agreements made.”
