Logan Paul is not taking any chances with Floyd Mayweather. The 26-year-old YouTube star told TMZ that he has hired a 24/7 security team after Mayweather’s brawl with his brother Jake Paul last week. During the altercation, Mayweather yelled out “I will kill you,” which led to Logan Paul hire a team that’s watching them “at all times.”
“Dawg, when you have a guy with the resources and the wealth that Floyd Mayweather has and the connection and the network and he’s saying sโโ, ‘I’mma kill that motherfโr’ โ kill?! Death?! You’re gonna kill my brother over a fโing hat?! Yo, we take that sโ seriously man!” Paul said, who also mentioned he has bodyguards with or around them “everywhere at all times.”

“If I caught Floyd with one punch โ one punch โ I would snap this fโer in half. “Let me tell you this, if I caught Floyd in a real fight, street fight, whoop his ass! No question,” Paul told TMZ last year. “MMA? Octagon? Whoop his ass!” The only place I think Floyd is safe obviously is the boxing ring, but to be honest, I don’t give a fโ! I don’t give a fโ! I would fight Floyd anytime, anywhere, any place. Doesn’t fโkin’ matter to me.”
Paul continued: “I’m 8 inches taller, I’m 40 pounds heavier, I’m half his age, I’m 2 times as hungry and 10 times as smart. I’m used to beating up people weaker and shorter than he is. I grew up with Jake!” Paul will be competing in the second boxing match of his career. He told TMZ that there’s a chance he could make $20 million for the fight in June, which will air on Showtime pay-per-view and Fanmio.
