Floyd Mayweather Jr. announced plans on Sunday for an exhibition bout against Logan Paul.

The fight is slated to take place on Feb. 20, with a venue not yet announced.

The two have been rumored to be working out fight details for a while, with Mayweather publicly calling out Paul - as well as his brother, Jake - in November:

Jake Paul is coming off a vicious knockout victory against former NBA guard Nate Robinson on the card headlined by the exhibition match between Mike Tyson and Roy Jones Jr. late last month.

Logan, meanwhile, is 0-1 in his professional career, debuting in November 2019 with a split-decision loss to YouTuber "KSI."

Mayweather's professional record is 50-0 with 27 career knockouts.

Shortly after hearing the news, lightweight and super featherweight titleholder Gervonta Davis expressed his desire to fight on the undercard:
