YouTube star Paul survived a boxing match against the legendary Mayweather

“It was a victory for him.”

In his active days as a professional, he won all 50 fights and was to some experts the best boxer of decades – but Mayweather really favored his reputation with off-base show fights. This time it will be between 50 and 60 million dollars. Prior to performing in Florida, he was last in the ring with Irish mixed martial arts fighter Conor McGregor nearly four years ago and prematurely defeated him by technical knockout according to boxing rules. “I quit boxing,” Mayweather said. “But I didn’t quit entertaining and making money.”

The number of people who purchased the pay-per-view access for $49.99 was initially unknown. But if you take the millions of clicks on the videos beforehand as evidence, as well as the direct indications of such reputable media companies as ESPN, the Washington Post or the New York Times, it is clear that enough people are interested in Paul’s loud duel with Mayweather, who is now very much. “My goal is to be the greatest artist on the planet,” Paul said before the fight on ESPN. “And doing big fights and big performances as an independent fighter is a good way to get there.”
