Floyd Mayweather vs. Logan Paul Scorecard Predictions, Odds and Prop Bets

There's never been a boxing match quite like the upcoming Floyd Mayweather Jr.-Logan Paul bout. And it's not quite clear what to expect from the exhibition bout, which is set to take place Sunday night at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami.

But there will be plenty of people watching to find out what happens.

Mayweather, who retired with a 50-0 professional record, has never lost and even won an exhibition bout against Tenshin Nasukawa in 2018.

Meanwhile, Paul, who rose to fame on YouTube, has only one boxing match on his resume: a six-round loss to fellow YouTuber KSI in 2019.

Paul clearly has less experience, but he's 26 years old and is 6'2", while Mayweather is 44 and 5'8".

Here's a look at the odds for the upcoming fight, along with predictions for how this contest will unfold.

Predictions

It's hard to look at the resumes of these two and not think this is a mismatch. Regardless of age and size, Mayweather has been boxing for years. And not only that, but he's also defeated some top-tier fighters who stepped into the ring with him.

Paul is less experienced and has never fought somebody like Mayweather. And even with all the training that the younger, taller competitor has done, things are sure to feel different when he's between the ropes with one of the greatest boxers of all time.

But Paul has made it clear that he knows how big of an opportunity this is for him.

"This fight means so much to me. To my fans. To my family. To everyone watching who thought they couldn't do something in life," Paul said, per the Associated Press. "That's the energy I'm going in with. Everyone says this is impossible. Well it was impossible that I got this fight."

Mayweather also called Paul and his younger brother, Jake, "fake fighters," but the former champion didn't get to this point in life with an undefeated record by taking any of his opponents lightly, either.

"I don't have to talk about what I'm going to do. The world knows what I'm going to do," he said per AP.

That's going to end up with Mayweather winning this fight. It's not going to happen immediately. The two are going to be sizing each other up in the first round, and there's been too much hype surrounding this event for either of them to end it quickly.

Still, Mayweather is going to start to show that this truly is a mismatch in the second round. Paul has the age and size, but the boxing Hall of Famer still has the skill.

Expect Mayweather to get close to winning in the second round, but Paul will absorb some of the damage and hang on, trying to regroup for the third round. But at that point, Mayweather will finish him off, winning via a knockout in the third round.

There should be some excitement from this bout, and those who paid to watch will be somewhat satisfied, even though the fight won't go nearly the distance. And by the end, Mayweather will keep his unbeaten record (professional and exhibition) intact.

Prediction: Mayweather wins via knockout in third round
