Mayweather-Paul ends without a result
And it’s over. Surprisingly no KO for a Floyd Mayweather. And this is an exhibition so there is no official winner. Crowd not happy. Floyd warned y’all and called this event a legalized bank robbery.
It's time for Mayweather to turn it on
We’re at the point now where it’s time for a KO. If it doesn’t materialize that’s definitely some sort of victory for Logan Paul.
Floyd landing on Paul, who remains in this
Floyd landed a big left hook toward end of round that seemed to hurt Paul and at this point he’s just plowing forward. He’s carried him enough, surely KO coming in 6 or 7?
Logan Paul tiring through 4
Logan Paul definitely tiring now. Appeared to have trouble holding guard up at times in Round 4 as Floyd Mayweather continues to wing power shot.
Floyd coming on in the third
Now Floyd walking Logan down and landing some big, flush shots. When does the knockout come? This is an eight-round exhibition and we’re entering the fourth.

Little action through 2
So yeah, not much entertainment so far … dull through two rounds. Paul is so much bigger than Mayweather that it could be hard to close range. That or Floyd is carrying him. Yeah, it’s definitely the latter.

Logan Paul just unloaded with about 25 punches to end the opening round as Floyd Mayweather covered up and I’m pretty sure not a single one landed
