There's a "major possibility" that Jake Paul fights Floyd Mayweather, says the YouTuber's boxing trainer.

Mayweather will return to action next year when he faces Jake's older brother Logan.

And Jake's boxing trainer J'Leon Love, who is a long-time friend of Mayweather, insists the 23-year-old could take on 'Money' following February's high-profile exhibition bout.

Speaking to The Sun, Love said: "With Jake, it's a major possibility, a high chance.

"I thought about it and then left it alone but obviously Floyd and Jake are both in it to get the best out of it."

He continued: "Floyd is the pinnacle of it, so could it happen?

"Floyd is a businessman, so is Jake Paul, just as well as Logan, so if it makes money it makes sense.

"I think Jake would do it, there's a possibility that happens. "

Mayweather, 43, hasn't fought since his exhibition against Japanese kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa in December 2018.

But he'll lace up a pair of boxing gloves again when he faces off against the YouTuber who last fought KSI in November 2019.

On Mayweather vs. Paul, Love added: "At the end of the day Floyd is the greatest fighter to do this sh*t in my era.

"We've been close for many years, it's cool, it's good entertainment, a good business move by Logan Paul, he's willing to go very far to get that audience and views.

"I commend him for all that, but a win over Floyd Mayweather? Yeah f**king right, it ain't happening. But it's entertainment.

"Of course, I'm Team Money, I don't train Logan but he's super cool, super smart and good luck, go put on a good show and make your money."
