Logan Paul says Floyd Mayweather fight is ‘personal’ after boxing legend threatened to kill brother Jake following brawl


LOGAN PAUL said his fight with Floyd Mayweather is now ‘personal’ after the boxing legend threatened to kill his brother Jake.

All hell broke loose in Miami as Mayweather and Logan came face-to-face for the first time at a press conference to promote their June 6 exhibition.

But it was younger brother Jake, 24, who caused a mass melee after stealing the American icon’s hat.

Both the Pauls were then involved in a scuffle with Mayweather and his security entourage.

Mayweather, 44, was left fuming after the brawl and was captured backstage yelling: “I’ll kill you mother f***er. You crazy?

“I don’t know who the f*** you think you’re playing with. I don’t play no motherf***ing games. I’ll f*** you up.”

It has left Logan, 26, out to settle a score as he denied the ugly scenes being fake.

He told TMZ Sports: “I f***ing wish that wasn’t real. I wish that wasn’t staged.  That s*** is not funny, it’s not fun for anyone.

“That s*** just got personal by default. It was supposed to be like a cute little press conference, come together, get people excited for the fight. 

“Now people are talking about killing people? What the f***. ”

Jake, who is 3-0 as a boxer, claimed a member of Mayweather’s security punched him in the face but he was still all smiles afterwards.

So much so that he even had a brand new tattoo inked on his leg which read ‘gotcha hat’ with a cap underneath.

Mayweather’s ex-opponent Conor McGregor, 32, and former best friend-turned rival 50 Cent were quick to blast the ring great.

Logan also aimed a parting shot at five-weight world champion after Jake ran off with his personalised Money Team cap.

He said: “It’s going to be the craziest f***ing event to ever take place in the history of combat sports. 

“My message to Floyd is this; we’re going to get you that cap back Floyd.”
