Mayweather’s last professional fight was in 2017 against UFC star Conor McGregor. It was one of the most hyped crossover matches and was a 10-round TKO win for Mayweather. The win improved the five-time champion’s career record to 50-0. The boxing legend last fought in 2018 in an exhibition bout against Japanese kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa. The exhibition match resulted in another win for the boxing legend, a first-round TKO win.

On the other hand, Paul along with his younger brother, Jake Paul, are YouTubers-turned-boxers. The elder Paul has not experienced the same success as his younger brother. The elder has only had two boxing bouts, an exhibition and a professional one. Both bouts were against fellow YouTuber KSI. Both matches were a loss for the elder Paul.

Mayweather is the overwhelming favorite to win the exhibition match. For now, there is no additional information about the fight card.
