Jake Paul claims to have been hit by Floyd Mayweather's bodyguard:

Jake Paul was in Miami to support his brother Logan Paul in his upcoming exhibition bout against boxing legend Floyd Mayweather. However, Jake would steal away all the attention by starting a brawl that left him proudly holding Floyd Mayweather's hat but with damage to his eye, lip, and tooth.

While details of the blow that caused the damage to Jake Paul are still hazy, the 24-year old claimed to have been hit by someone from Floyd's entourage. Appearing to be unphased by the black eye, Jake Paul wrote on Twitter-

"honestly have had 3 easy fights as a pro so been itching for some real action. 1 of Floyd’s 30 bodyguards got a clean shot on me in the eye. RESPECT!"

Footage from the brawl may have shown a rattled Jake Paul, but that did not stop the YouTuber from changing his Twitter handle to 'GOTCHA HAT'. Jake Paul even went one step further and released official "gotcha hat" merchandise on his website not long after.
