Floyd Mayweather Responds to Logan Paul’s $1.5 Million Claim With Brief Message

Floyd Mayweather has finally addressed Logan Paul’s recent claim that he is still owed $1.5 million from their 2021 exhibition boxing match. Rather than directly denying or confirming the allegation, the undefeated boxing legend delivered a short response that left plenty open to interpretation.

Speaking during a recent appearance, Mayweather was asked about Logan Paul’s comments regarding the alleged unpaid purse. Instead of engaging in the back-and-forth, the former five-division world champion simply said:

“I wish him nothing but the best.”

The remark comes after Logan Paul reignited the long-running financial dispute by claiming Mayweather still owes him $1.5 million from their exhibition bout at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami. Paul has repeatedly alleged that he did not receive his full agreed payment, while Mayweather has largely avoided discussing the matter publicly.

Mayweather Declines to Fuel the Dispute

Mayweather’s latest comments suggest he has little interest in escalating the situation. The 50-0 boxing icon offered no further explanation or rebuttal, choosing instead to keep his response respectful and brief.

The exhibition between Mayweather and Paul went the full eight rounds under special exhibition rules and generated significant pay-per-view interest worldwide. Despite the commercial success of the event, questions surrounding fighter payments have continued to surface years later.

Whether Mayweather’s latest statement brings the dispute to an end remains to be seen, but for now, the boxing legend appears unwilling to publicly engage with Logan Paul’s accusations.
