Floyd Mayweather vs. Logan Paul: How to watch the fight on PPV

Floyd Mayweather returns to the ring to face YouTube sensation Logan Paul in an eight-round exhibition Sunday (Showtime PPV and Fanmio PPV, 8 p.m. ET) at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida. Follow along with the action throughout the night with coverage from Miami.

Mayweather (50-0, 27 KOs), 44, is considered one of the best fighters of his generation and one of the all-time greats in the sport, but he has been retired for four years and hasn't fought since a 10th-round TKO victory over MMA star Conor McGregor. This will be Mayweather's second bout since a unanimous decision victory over Andre Berto almost six years ago (not counting his first-round KO exhibition victory over kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa on Dec. 31, 2018, in Japan).

Paul (0-1), 26, is a YouTuber-turned-boxer. His only professional bout was a split decision loss to fellow YouTuber KSI (Olajide William Olatunji) on Nov. 9, 2019, at Staples Center in Los Angeles.

Mayweather is 5-foot-8 and has never weighed more than 151 pounds for any of his professional fights. Paul last fought as a cruiserweight and stands 6-2. According to the stipulations of the contract, Paul cannot weight more than 190 pounds at the weigh-in on Friday. Even so, he will likely have a 40-pound weight advantage against Mayweather on Sunday.

Another exhibition bout will take place on the undercard when former NFL wide receiver Chad Johnson makes his boxing debut against bare-knuckle fighter Brian Maxwell in a four-round cruiserweight fight.

Former light heavyweight titlist Badou Jack (23-3-3, 13 KOs), 37, who was supposed to challenge WBA "regular" light heavyweight titlist Jean Pascal before Pascal tested positive for a banned substance, will now face late replacement Dervin Colina (15-0, 13 KOs), 33, in the co-main event.
