BOXING fans will have to fork out a whopping £35 to watch Floyd Mayweather’s clash with YouTube star Logan Paul.
Showtime have announced the hefty fee for the PPV in America while also confirming that the exhibition bout will be eight-rounds instead of six.
Mayweather vs Paul is set to take place on June 6 in front of a sold-out crowd at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida.
And those unable to bag a ticket for the event Stateside will have to stump up a staggering £35.58 ($49.99) to watch the contest.
Fanmio will broadcast the PPV across the globe and SunSport previously revealed that the price is set to be the same for UK fans.
The news comes after social media star Paul will earn £14million for his exhibition fight against the undefeated boxer, 44, next month.
And yet the 26-year-old will still receive less than a fifth of Mayweather’s reported purse, which is said to be a lucrative £72m.
It will be Paul’s third bout in a boxing ring, the other two coming as a mix of amateur and professional contests.
The 26-year-old drew an amateur fight against fellow internet star KSI in 2018, before turning pro and losing their rematch the following year.
Meanwhile, Mayweather – widely regarded as the best boxer of his generation – retired from the sport with a perfect 50-0 record.

The duo were scheduled to square off inside the ring in February, only for the dust-up to be postponed to allow fans to attend.
The PPV details come after Logan and brother Jake revealed they have hired security after Floyd’s threat to ‘kill’ The Problem Child.
Mayweather came to blows with the younger Paul last week in Miami after the YouTuber stole his hat.
