Top sportsbooks continue to favor Floyd Mayweather Jr. Over Logan Paul in their so-called “super exhibition.” After postponing the original fight date of February 20, the two have agreed on June 6 to enter the ring. With a quick glance at the Logan Paul vs Floyd Mayweather odds at the best online sportsbooks, it is no surprise that Mayweather is a huge favorite and Paul a massive underdog.
As mentioned above, this is an exhibition, with similar rules to those of the Mike Tyson vs Roy Jones Jr. fight in November. There will be no judges and no official winner read, so don’t take Mayweather by decision. Unlike the Tyson vs Jones showdown where knockouts were discouraged, it will be otherwise for Paul vs Mayweather.

Betting Floyd Mayweather JR.
Mayweather, the favorite at top sportsbooks, said they won’t need no stinkin’ judges because he predicts a stoppage. Paul isn’t the biggest underdog ever against Floyd. Mayweather’s shortest odds were -3000 in against Andre Berto.
Paul has had one professional boxing match, in November 2019, which he lost in a close split decision to KSI. We have an 0-1 YouTuber against a 50-0 boxer. It makes sense to see why the Logan Paul vs Floyd Mayweather odds are such as they are.
Checking Mayweather’s odds history, he has been the favorite of top sportsbooks in each of his past 18 fights. He was a favorite of -2000 or more twice. That list includes Arturo Gatti, Oscar De La Hoya, Canelo Alvarez and Manny Pacquiao. Each of those opponents posed a bigger threat to Mayweather than Paul’s, whose lone professional fight was against another YouTuber, KSI.
If you are a typical $50 to $100 gambler, placing a wager on Mayweather is not worth your time. A $100 bet on Floyd to win would earn you a measly $10.00. You’re better off to hanging on until closer to the fight when more Logan Paul vs Floyd Mayweather betting props will be added like the method of victory. You will find much better value there.
Betting Logan Paul
This being a “super exhibition”, one stip is that Floyd cannot weigh over 160 pounds. This will not be a problem. Meanwhile Logan Paul can weigh no more than 190. Mayweather is a superior athlete at that weight. As well as a boxer who is very hard to hit.
He knows all the tricks in the book to make you look foolish – and Paul is already halfway there.
As mentioned above, a bet on Mayweather to win straight-up is not worth your time. Moreover, betting on Mayweather to win by decision will be deemed as a push. Thus, your only choice is to take “Money” to knock out “Maverick.”
What Does Logan Paul Do Right? I must be said that in Paul’s two fights vs KSI (they had fought previously as amateurs), there was some stuff that he did well. In particular, employing his long jab to keep his opponent at length.
However, he gets overexcited when he lands a jab. He has a tendency to wing wild overhand hooks afterward that seldom hit. Furthermore, because of this wild approach, his stamina becomes a problem. If there are two things you can never do against Mayweather, it’s toss sloppy punches and run out of gas.
Floyd Mayweather vs. Logan Paul Pick
Taking a look at the Logan Paul vs Floyd Mayweather odds, taking Mayweather at -1000 is not worth a bet. But betting on the fight to not go the distance at -240 makes a lot more sense. Floyd Mayweather (-1000) by knockout (-190).
