“I want to dedicate this fight to my new baby girl Bambi at home, and my Mrs [Molly-Mae Hague]. I love you.”

The pair look set to rematch after Paul confirmed he would try to avenge the defeat.

The American said: “I felt flat, I got sick really bad twice in this camp. It wasn’t my best performance.

“But I lost, I’m not making any excuses, I’ll just say it wasn’t my best performance tonight.

“Like I said, we’re going to come back and get that W. Don’t judge me by my wins, judge me by my losses. We’re going to come back stronger.”
