A man widely regarded as the best boxer of his generation will face a YouTuber who has a professional record of one fight and one loss this Sunday.

The exhibition bout between Floyd Mayweather and Logan Paul will be held on Sunday at 12pm.

Paul who has 19.5 million Instagram followers, turned professional to take on fellow YouTuber KSI in 2019 and lost by split decision.

Mayweather is a four-weight world champion and retired having won all 50 of his professional fights.

He is now 44-years-old while Paul is 26.

You may be asking why Mayweather is taking the fight.

In 2017, he reportedly earned $US275 million for beating mixed martial artist and former UFC champion Conor McGregor in one of the richest professional bouts of all time.

The following year he stopped Japanese kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa in an exhibition fight inside two minutes to earn $US9m.

Sunday's clash with Paul will reportedly make Mayweather up to $100m.
