“Look, he’s running! Jake Paul is the running champ! Why is he running?” the person holding the camera shouted.
“So I’m leaving the Miami Heat game, and Floyd Mayweather and 50 dudes pull up out of nowhere,” Paul said. “Out of some side alley waiting for me outside of the stadium. They’re like, ‘what’s up, what’s all that talk now!’
“I’m like, first of all, what did I say to you, Floyd? I just took your hat, and you’re still mad about it? Come on, bro. Then 50 dudes literally start surrounding me, trying to jump me. I’m out that b****.”
Sources close to Mayweather reportedly told TMZ that he didn’t want to jump Paul but instead just happened to run into him after the basketball game. The incident is said to have started over comments Paul made about Mayweather that went beyond the bounds of the customary fighters’ trash-talking.
“Floyd, you want to run it one-on-one, no problem, but I’m not dumb,” Paul said. “I’m tough. I don’t need to prove my toughness, but I’m not f****** dumb. I’m not going to sit there and try to fight 50 dudes. Dipped out of that b****.
“Floyd, you’re an h* bro. You’re mad ’cause I took your f****** hat, are you serious? Get over it, bro. Move on.”
