‘They sparred and made money’ – Khabib Nurmagomedov mocks Logan Paul vs Floyd Mayweather

Khabib Nurmagomedov and Logan Paul vs Floyd Mayweather

Logan Paul vs Floyd Mayweather was a snooze-fest. The exhibition fight went the full eight-rounds, and since there was no knockout in the fight, no winner was declared. The contest was largely dominated by momentary hugs from both the fighters. There was a point in the fight where Mayweather appeared to knock down Paul, but held on to him so that he wouldn’t get knocked down.

Both the stars walked out with a fat bag of cash. Speaking about the fight in a recent interview with RT Sport, Khabib Nurmagomedov claimed that it wasn’t even a fight. Khabib stated that Logan Paul vs Floyd Mayweather was purely business, but maintained that he will not be commenting anything further.
