Mayweather, 44, was due to fight the YouTuber Paul last month but that bout was postponed.
The boxing great was in attendance when Anthony Joshua beat Kubrat Pulev at Wembley Arena last December.
And Hearn revealed the conversation he had with Mayweather in London.
He said: “I actually said to Floyd on the Saturday night – he was at the AJ fight.
“I said, ‘You need to be careful, this is a very very tough fight you have with Logan Paul.’
“And he asked me, ‘Are you serious?’ And I said, ‘No, I’m not.’”
Mayweather’s bout with Paul is set to be rearranged for later this year.

Floyd recently said the bout was cancelled because he wants a massive crowd in attendance.
Mayweather, 43, said: “We’re gonna do Logan Paul, and we pushed it back because we want an audience, we want to bring 80,000 people to watch.
“We’re trying to do it at the Raiders’ stadium in Vegas for 80,000 people.”
The Allegiant Stadium is the home of NFL giants Las Vegas Raiders, which opened up last year after just under three years of construction.
However, he’s currently enjoying a break with his Brit stripper girlfriend Anna Monroe.
The couple took a trip to Aruba last week, and Floyd also had a 44th birthday bash in Florida.
He arrived in a $2million Bugatti with the likes of rapper Rick Ross in attendance.
