Floyd Mayweather and Jake Paul came face-to-face in Miami after the Heat game Wednesday night ... the legendary boxer and a group of men confronted the Problem Child -- before JP booked it from the area.
The incident happened after the Heat-Cavs game in south Florida ... when Mayweather rolled up on Paul, who appeared to have a lone security guard with him at the time.
After exchanging a few words, Jake made a run for it ... getting out of there before any fists started flying.
Of course, Floyd and Jake have been beefin' since Paul snatched his hat off the 50-0 boxers head at a press event promoting his brother Logan's fight with TBE in May 2021.
