Twitter users immediately responded after learning that Paul will be facing Mayweather in the boxing ring, and many of them slammed Paul for wanting to fight Mayweather in the first place.

"This is a joke right? like. Why is Logan Paul planning his own funeral? Does he want punishment for that Japan video? He's about to get it. At least he has a lot of money to pay for his own hospital bills," one commented.

"You fu--ed see you in your grave," a second user added.

"Logan Paul is a joke," another wrote.

"An ordinary boxer going against the champion Logan?" another netizen commented.

"Why TF Is Logan Paul Is going againest [sic] Floyd Mayweather," another added.

"So you can box FLOYD MAYWEATHER basically asking to die, but can’t wrestle @GraysonDolan that don’t add up," a different netizen wrote.

Meanwhile, some felt that Paul can beat Mayweather. One said the professional boxing promoter and former professional boxer was the "most boring boxer to watch."

"I don’t care what you say, Logan Paul will one hundred percent win against Floyd mayweather. In fact, he’ll knock out floyd with one punch. Honestly I’m surprised trashweather accepted the fight, because of how bad he is. He pays the judges with every fight he does," one wrote.

Another user said he was shocked that the match between Paul and Mayweather is really happening. The netizen said that Paul seems to have an advantage because of his height and weight, but Mayweather has a lot more experience.

"If SOMEHOW logan wins, floyd will never fight another human being after losing to a youtuber," the user concluded.
