MIAMI – The highly anticipated Logan Paul vs. Floyd Mayweather exhibition boxing match is only days away, but online sportsbooks have already released a flurry of prop bets.
Among some of those prop bets include the events of the upcoming weigh-in and press conference. While the odds are highly in Mayweather’s favor for the fight itself, the events leading up to it are anyone’s guess.
Weight Differential O/U 27.5 Pounds
The exhibition bout has some interesting rules, to say the least. Logan Paul is granted a 30-pound advantage over Floyd Mayweather for their June 6 fight. Paul will reportedly be fined $100,000 for each pound he weighs in at over 190 pounds.
Paul vs Mayweather Weight Difference Odds
- Over 27.5 -200
- Under 27.5 +150
Floyd Mayweather is expected to weigh in around 160 pounds, which would be a career-high for him. Paul weighed in at 199.4 pounds in his only professional fight in 2019.
Given the weight cut needed to avoid the fine, it’s safe to assume that Paul will weigh in right around 190 pounds almost exactly at the limit.
