‘I’ll see you in court’ – Logan Paul missing ‘a couple MILLION’ from Floyd Mayweather fight as pay row rumbles on

LOGAN PAUL has vowed to see Floyd Mayweather “in court” over his unpaid fight purse.

The YouTuber turned boxer locked horns with the former five-weight world champion in an eight-round exhibition bout last June, which, surprisingly, ended up going the distance.

But the YouTuber claims to have not been fully paid his fight purse

And he’s planning to take Mayweather to court to get the remainder of it

It took several months before Paul saw any of the purse he was promised for the bout, which he’s willing to go to court to get the rest of.

During an impromptu media scrum on Tuesday, The Maverick said: “I got paid, just not in full.

“A couple million that’s somehow just missing. “Where did the money go?

“Floyd said he could afford a Jeff Bezos-sized jet from the money he made from that fight — I ain’t got a f****n’ jet.

What the f**k, dude?! I’m missing a couple mil. We’re gonna find it bro, I’ll see you in court. Watch my words, we’re coming for you.”

Paul, 27, first revealed his intention to sue the boxing legend in May.

He told TMZ: “No, he has not paid me in full. That is a fact. Short a few mil.

“Nah. We’re taking this one to court. See you in the courtroom. Congrats on going to prison, Floyd.”

Mayweather, 45, urged Paul to exercise patience earlier this year after the new WWE star publicly kicked up a fuss about not being paid.

During an appearance on The Pivot Podcast, he said: “This comes with the territory.

“To them, that’s real money, and I like the YouTubers. The money on the back end though, from pay-per-view, that takes a while.

“Nothing comes right away. I’m still collecting cheques from fights seven or eight years ago.

“They just hate when the table is turned. Be happy with the biggest payday you ever got in your life.”

Paul hasn’t set foot inside the ring since his eight-rounder with ‘Money’, although he recently inked a lucrative deal with WWE.

Mayweather, meanwhile, returned to action in May for an exhibition with former sparring partner Don Moore and is set to be back in action in September against Japanese MMA fighter Mikuru Asakura.
