Logan Paul alleges Floyd Mayweather still owes him $1.5 million from their 2021 exhibition bout.
The social media personality and WWE performer revisited the dispute while outlining how the event was arranged behind the scenes.
Paul maintains the outstanding amount is linked to a prior agreement connected to the fight.
Logan Paul outlines $10 million pre-sale allegation
Logan Paul claimed Floyd Mayweather finalized a significant deal related to the contest before it was ultimately staged in the United States.
According to Paul, the agreement involved rights tied to his name and likeness. Paul asserted that his compensation was structured as a percentage of that arrangement.
“He pre-sold the fight using my name and likeness to a company, I think in Dubai or somewhere in the Middle East, for $10,000,000 cash.”
“We ended up doing the fight in the US with a different company. That’s the company that put on the fight, but he had already sold our fight to someone else for $10 million in cash.”
“Our deal was 15%, he smoked me. 15% of $10,000,000 is $1,500,000. The company that paid him $10M is suing him. He has a bunch of legal trouble at the moment. I don’t think I’m ever getting the money.”
Dispute lingers years after exhibition
The exhibition between Logan Paul and Floyd Mayweather took place in 2021 and attracted widespread global attention.
Despite the fight reaching the final bell, Paul now contends financial matters tied to the event remain unsettled.
Mayweather has not publicly addressed the latest allegations regarding the claimed unpaid sum, and has focused on his career.
Mayweather is set to face Manny Pacquiao later this year in a rematch of their 2015 bout that the undefeated boxer won, albeit controversially.
