The social media star takes on the boxing icon in an exhibition bout in Miami this weekend and believes that it could be a defining moment in both his life and his boxing career.

Speaking on his 'Impaulsive' podcast, Logan said: "I really genuinely believe that this event will be the biggest event in my life ever. I'll have other big things, make no mistake, but the magnitude of this one is going to be unmatched.

"There is so much on the line here. This feels like the closing of a very special chapter in my life.

"Everybody has one moment that defines their life and I have a cheat code because I know both the date and time of mine."

Logan is a massive underdog for the fight but explained that he has been training hard for the challenge presented by Mayweather - who won 15 major world titles in five weight classes during his professional career.

The YouTuber said: "I'm over-prepared physically and mentally for the fight. I feel sharp. I'm fighting Floyd Mayweather and I'm going to take everything away from him.

"I've allocated every f****** ounce of energy towards the camp."

Logan, 26, also believes that he will be the people's champion should he defeat 44-year-old Mayweather, who has never lost in 50 professional fights but who will step into the ring for the first time since retirement in 2017.

He said: "I have so much support. People hate Floyd because he beat all of their favourite fighters so they are desperate to see him lose."
