Former UFC lightweight champion Eddie Alvarez shared his prediction for tonight’s big boxing match between Logan Paul and Floyd Mayweather. Paul and Mayweather meet in an exhibition boxing match tonight live from the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida. It’s an exhibition boxing match because of the massive weight difference in the fight. At the official weigh-ins on Saturday, Paul came in at 189.5lbs while Mayweather tipped the scales at 155lbs. The weight difference is the reason this fight is not a professional boxing match, but rather an exhibition fight. Because it’s an exhibition, there will be no official judges ringside to declare a winner, but the fighters can still go for a KO.

YouTuber-turned-boxer Logan Paul shared one final hype video before his boxing showdown with Floyd Mayweather on Sunday night on Showtime PPV. Paul and Mayweather meet Sunday evening at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida in a highly-anticipated exhibition boxing match. One on side of the ring will be Mayweather, one of the greatest boxers of all time and the holder of a perfect 50-0 record as a professional boxer. On the other side of the ring will be Paul, he of YouTube fame and the 0-1 professional boxing record.

However, Paul is confident that he can get the job done and believes he will win the fight.
