Floyd Mayweather and Logan Paul have once again faced off before their boxing exhibition on Sunday night — this and much more on Thursday's social media roundup.
Floyd Mayweather and Logan Paul face off once more
Ahead of their highly anticipated boxing exhibition match on Sunday evening, former multi-weight boxing world champion Floyd Mayweather has once again squared off with YouTube star Logan Paul.
The first time Mayweather and Paul squared off against each other it was at a press conference in Miami and the face-off was fairly calm and respectful.
Of course, this changed quickly after where Mayweather got into a physical altercation with Logan's brother Jake where he chased him around the arena punching him.
Check out the video of the face-off between Logan Paul and Floyd Mayweather below.

As you can see in the video, Paul steps away from Mayweather to signal an end to the face-off but then Mayweather quickly takes a step back into Paul to reignite the face-off which makes it gets very tense.
Logan's brother Jake commented on the face-off on Twitter.

UFC fighters eligible to have their name in rainbow colours on their fight kit during Pride Month
To celebrate Pride Month, the UFC has announced that fighters who are appearing on cards in the month of June are eligible to have their name in rainbow colours on their fight kit.
A very nice touch from the UFC.
