And entertainment reporter Daniel Keem has claimed that Mayweather, nicknamed Money Man, will receive a much bigger slice of the purse when they do battle.

It has been claimed that Mayweather is guaranteed $5million (£3.7m) plus 50 per cent of all PPV sales.

In comparison, Paul will receive just $200,000 and a measly 5 per cent of PPV.

“My sources are pretty dead on,” Keem revealed on his YouTube channel DramaAlert.

“And my source gave me a text message yesterday saying Mayweather is getting paid $5million up front and 50 per cent of all the sales of the pay-per-view.

“Logan is only getting paid $200,000 up front and only 5 per cent of all the sales of the pay-per-view.”

When Mayweather, 43, fought his exhibition fight with Tenshin Nasukawa in Japan in 2018, he earned around £6.8m.

While Logan Paul made around £680,000 for his 2019 boxing match against fellow social media personality KSI.

But Keem has a theory why Logan Paul has apparently agreed to the terms.

He said: “So Logan Paul is getting wildly underpaid for this. Why would Logan Paul agree to this?

“I personally think it’s clout. This is going to be such a big match, he might not make a ton of money with this contract – but it might be worth it for him to have the opportunity to be a legend.”
