A wild brawl has broken out between Floyd Mayweather and Jake Paul during a press conference to promote an upcoming boxing match.
The scuffle occurred at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami on Thursday, where Jake was on hand to help advertise his brother Logan Paul‘s upcoming bout with Mayweather, which is scheduled to take place on June 6.
Mayweather and the Paul brothers traded verbal jabs in front of the cameras, with Mayweather calling the siblings ‘two fake fighters’.
‘The only thing that’s fake on this stage is Floyd’s f**king hairline,’ Logan responded.
Logan, 26, and Jake, 24, are best known as YouTube stars and have only recently started competing in boxing.
The duo began mocking 44-year-old Mayweather for his age, before things quickly turned physical when Jake Paul pulled off the boxing legend’s cap.

‘One of Floyd’s 30 bodyguards got a clean shot on me in the eye,’ the amateur boxer claimed.

Mayweather boasts a 50-0 professional record in the ring, with his last professional fight taking place in 2017 when he beat UFC star Conor McGregor in a highly-publicized bout.
Logan Paul, on the other hand, has only competed in one professional fight, in which he lost to fellow YouTuber KSI.
But despite Mayweather’s pedigree, he is reportedly not taking any chances on going down to a YouTube star.
The boxing legend has reportedly told his 29-year-old girlfriend Anna Monroe to leave his multi-million dollar Vegas mansion as he knuckles down to prepare for his upcoming fight.
Mayweather asked Monroe – lead dancer at his Las Vegas club Girl Collection – to get off the scene while he works off the ring rust and prepares to return from retirement once again, according to The Sun.
Logan Paul is certainly not short on confidence, recently claiming he will be able to beat Mayweather in the bout.
Speaking on his podcast IMPAULSIVE last month, Logan was asked by co-host George Janko to rate his chances of beating Mayweather out of ten.
‘Ten, yeah,’ Logan said. ‘I can see how that sounds ridiculous.
‘But guess what Georgey? My whole f***ing life is ridiculous. None of this s*** makes sense.
‘Everyone’s always told me my whole life you know, the things I’ve accomplished weren’t possible until I did them.
‘The fact that I even got a fight with Floyd Mayweather was impossible. Oh, then it happened. So, like man, I’ve heard it all.
