Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Logan Paul: Boxing's bastardization continues apace

It's hard to tell whether it's pantomime or a canny marketing ploy as the YouTuber fighter's brother steals the undefeated professional boxer's hat and they get into a heated pre-press conference fight.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. versus Logan Paul looks like the ultimate mismatch, but it's the latest in a number of lucrative exhibition fights featuring non-professional boxers and would seem to be indicative of boxing's increasing bastardization. Mayweather is worth hundreds of millions, with an undefeated professional boxing record of 50-0 and multiple world title belts to his name. Paul has no belts to his name, but plenty of YouTube views -- almost six billion and counting. His tale of the tape is short; he's lost his only professional fight against another YouTuber.
