Floyd Mayweather to Jake Paul: Stop fighting 50-year-olds

Floyd Mayweather Jr. wants Jake Paul to stop fighting 40 and 50-year-olds and test himself against a real boxer.

The undefeated boxing legend and former multi-division champion (50-0) put ‘The Problem Child’ (6-0) on blast following his unanimous decision victory over UFC legend Anderson Silva last month in Arizona.

It was an impressive showing from Paul, his most legitimate win to date, but somewhat tarnished by Silva being his oldest opponent to date (he turned 47 in April). Paul’s previous wins were against former welterweight titleholders Tyron Woodley (40) and Ben Askren (38), both of whom are past their primes and retired from MMA.
