Jake Paul gets new tattoo mocking Floyd Mayweather after brawl at press conference

He’s moved fast

Jake Paul has already commemorated his brawl with Floyd Mayweather, by getting a tattoo.

After he wound up Mayweather on Thursday by stealing his cap during a press event for brother Logan’s fight with ‘Money’ Mayweather, Jake has decided to mark the clash forever.

He posted a video of the inking on his Instagram, getting the phrase ‘Gotcha hat” tattooed on his leg. This was the phrase he kept saying to Floyd after he nicked his cap, which he may have quickly regretted if the videos of the scrap are anything to go by.

Mayweather was fuming that the YouTuber had “disrespected” him, which is not surprising seeing as the undefeated 50-0 fighter has one of the biggest egos in the sport.

Despite reportedly being left with ‘black eye’ and a ‘busted tooth’ it does seem that maybe Jake has no regrets about the whole thing.

The fisticuffs began after Mayweather was challenged to fight both Jake and his brother Logan Paul, 26, on the same night.

Mayweather was responding when 24-year-old Jake Paul snatched his cap and ran for the exit.

Jake really stole the spotlight from his brother Logan, with the confrontation happening at the press conference for Logan’s exhibition bout with Mayweather in June.

Mayweather has since commented on the incident, saying: “It’s one thing to sell a fight, and people can say what they want, but one thing no one is going to do, is disrespect me.”

Nice to see that everything is still going normally in the circus that is YouTuber boxing fights.
