Paul occasionally flicked out the jab as Mayweather offered infrequent counters. However, the YouTuber brought the heat on late as Mayweather shelled up.

More activity from the two came in the second round with the pair clinching in the third as Paul tried to use his size advantage to control Mayweather.

‘’Floyd Mayweather, it was an honor,’’ Paul said.
