A 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.

It comes after Mayweather reportedly told his 29-year-old girlfriend to leave his multi-million dollar Vegas mansion as he knuckles down to prepare for his upcoming fight with Logan Paul.
Mayweather is said to be pulling out all the stops and has gone as far as to ask girlfriend Anna 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.
The 44-year-old 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.
Afterward, Jake Paul claimed he had been given a black eye after being hit squarely in the face by one of Mayweather’s bodyguards
