Many popular online betting websites, including BetOnline, will be offering wagering on the Logan Paul vs. Floyd Mayweather Jr. exhibition boxing match Sunday June 6.
Any fight featuring Mayweather Jr. is bound to be a draw no matter who his opponent might be, but with Paul a social media sensation, we can expect this one to be a blockbuster regardless of the lopsided odds. Mayweather is listed at -1400 while an improbable win by Paul would pay out in the neighborhood of $650 for every $100 wagered.
Exhibition fights tend not to offer as many prop bets, however, Gambling911.com is anticipating a decent number available on Paul-Mayweather due to the vast betting interest likely. Grading will be based on the WBC (or other governing body promoting match) announcement of the winner.
The 44-year-old Mayweather does have a bit of an age handicap when compared to the much younger media sensation Paul, 24.
Experience here is a no-brainer and the reason for the lopsided pricing. Mayweather set a 50-0 record in 27 knockouts in a career that has won world titles in five weight classes for over 30 years. YouTube fighting only became a thing in 2019.
Paul is now known for being more than just famous for being famous as he recently took on, and beat, the former Bellator MMA and ONE Welterweight Champion Ben Askren, on March 28, 2021, in Los Angeles.
In addition to Paul vs. Mayweather, there will be other undercard fights of interest to bet on.
These include heavyweight Jean Pascal against Badou Jack and super welterweight Jarrett Hurd against Luis Arias.
Former NFL wide receiver Chad Johnson will make his boxing debut as well.
