Mayweather threatened to dish out "the same treatment" to YouTube boxer Logan Paul as he did to Conor McGregor, with speculation mounting the retired fighter is in talks with Paul.<\/p>\n
"Paul can get the same treatment before I go conquer Japan again," Mayweather posted on social media last night.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The comment was in response to Paul posting a video on social media where he said: "If I caught Floyd in a real fight? I'd whup him. MMA? I'd whup him. The only place Floyd is safe is the boxing ring.<\/p>\n
"I would fight Floyd any time, any place. If I caught Floyd with one punch, I would snap him in half.<\/p>\n
"I'm eight inches taller, 40lbs heavier, half his age, two times as hunger, 10 times as smart."<\/p>\n
Paul hit back with "50-1" after Mayweather's response, referring to his undefeated record.<\/p>\n
Paul's professional boxing debut was a loss to fellow YouTuber KSI last year.<\/p>\n

Mayweather has been hinting at returning to Japan for another exhibition fight after knocking out 20-year-old Tenshin Nasukawa inside one round.<\/p>\n
Rumours of a bout with Paul surfaced earlier this year, when YouTuber Keemstar told his 2.8m Twitter followers that Mayweather would fight Paul.<\/p>\n
The rumour gained more steam when KSI's trainer Viddal Riley, who is signed to Mayweather Promotions, said of Mayweather vs Paul: "Both guys are in talks. It is not confirmed yet.<\/p>\n
"Remember, I get the inside scoop. I hang around the family. It is not confirmed yet but it is in talks."<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
