Despite criticism surrounding his choice of opponents, Paul addressed the media in the post-fight press conference, emphasizing the importance of taking risks for his brand.
“What’s going on? What’s the plan here? And it’s just one answer — to become world champion,” he said.
With an 8-1 professional boxing record, Paul expressed his ongoing ambition to capture a world championship in the sport.
Known for his previous clashes with high-profile MMA fighters, Paul has recently shifted his focus to facing more experienced, full-time boxers. This strategic move aligns with his desire to gain valuable experience in the boxing ring.

Notably, Paul dismissed the possibility of facing influencer boxers like KSI and hinted at a willingness to take on challenges from professional boxers, including Viddal Riley. While neither Paul nor Riley has officially announced their next fights, the prospect of these matchups adds intrigue to Paul‘s evolving boxing career.
“Yeah, for sure, that can happen,” Paul noted.
“That’d be interesting. And he [Riley] has a name, a profile. And that’s something that excites me for sure. And as I go down this path, I’m gonna continue to challenge myself, and grow, and grow, and grow. And some of those names start popping into the equation.”
Meanwhile, social media users are asking Paul to consider taking on boxing legend Mike Tyson.
