Mayweather said in an Instagram post: “Logan Paul and I are going to fight at Hard Rock Stadium. Mayweather Promotions, Fanmio and Showtime will team up to give you an epic event.”

The fight was originally scheduled for February 20 but it was postponed due to Covid-19-related restrictions that wouldn’t allow a full stadium, according to Fox News.

The five-time world champion must weigh in under 160 pounds and Paul under 190 pounds, according to the fighting terms. 

No details were mentioned about how many rounds there will be.

The result of the fight will not count toward Mayweather’s record because it’s an exhibition match.

The last time Mayweather stepped into the ring was in 2018 for a brief one-sided exhibition win over kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa.

His last professional fight was against UFC star Conor McGregor in 2017, winning by TKO in the tenth.

Paul’s ring career is limited to just one fight – a 2019 defeat to fellow YouTuber KSI.
