The pair are due to put bragging rights, reputations and unbeaten records on the line in Saudi Arabia.

But Paul is already thinking ahead to the future and has lined up two potential next fights.

He told BT Sport: “We’ve got a big, big year ahead. There’s a massive offer out to Nate Diaz and his team to do one boxing match and one MMA match.

“And then, you know the kid KSI, keeps on talking and he says that December, he wants to fight.

“I’m ready whenever, November, September, December, I don’t care. Whenever he wants to die, I’m cool with it.

“Whenever he wants to give me so much money, I’m cool with it. It’s going to be a bank robbery.

“So hopefully that’s my year, is one, two, three, finish up with KSI. But a lot of these guys are talk, man. So who knows?”

Paul, 26, this year signed with the Professional Fighters League, a rival MMA promotion to the UFC.

Diaz, 37, has been offered a two-fight deal, starting with a boxing bout with a rematch in MMA after he walked out on the UFC.

Meanwhile KSI, 29, has had three comeback fights since beating Paul’s brother Logan, 27, in their 2019 rematch.

It has kept the rivalry alive with talks of a winner-take-all blockbuster between the YouTube star’s in Wales.
