Pokemon Card Collection: Logan Paul
This is not the first time Logan Paul boasts his card collection. In fact, the youtube star also wore a Beckett Grading System (BGS) 10 Charizard during his boxing match with Floyd Joy Mayweather Jr. Paul bought the card for $150,000 from Gary of Pawn Stars. After the match, Paul claimed it is now worth $1,000,000 as it is the card that “walked with the Legendary Boxer”.
There are only 3 BGS 10 Charizard Card known to exist in the world. This is considered one of the Holy Grails of Pokemon Trading Cards and collectors will most likely buy them for that price. Especially now, it is tied to an event with the famous Money Mayweather who was a 50-0 record, excluding his celebrity matches (Floyd still won against Logan).
Logan Paul also unknowingly spent $3,500,000 worth of fake 1st Edition Pokemon Trading Cards late last year. Shyne or Bolillo Lajan San, son of Belize President, sold the package to Paul which contains 1999 GI Joe trading cards. Shyne seemingly refunded the amount to Paul.
