    No opponent has yet been announced but Paul has pledged to donate his purse to his charity foundation Boxing Bullies.
    He said: “The mission keeps on getting bigger and we’re gonna continue to renovate more gyms.
    “I’m actually going to be donating my entire fight purse to Boxing Bullies to renovate more gyms in Puerto Rico.”
    His business partner Nakisa Bidarian: “I just wanna repeat that right. He’s donating his entire purse to renovate gyms in Puerto Rico.”

    Paul – who lives in a £13million mansion in Puerto Rico – in 2021 launched his charity in a bid to introduce boxing to a younger generation.
    And he revealed the next gym he renovates will be dedicated to boxing legend and seven-division champ Serrano.
    He said: “I don’t know if we can sneak preview that one of the gyms is going to be an Amanda Serrano gym.”
    Paul, 27, last February suffered the first defeat of his boxing career, losing a split-decision to Tommy Fury, 24, in Saudi Arabia.

    But he bounced back with a points victory over ex-UFC star Nate Diaz, 38, and a first-round knockout against Andre August.
    August, 35, was the first boxer that Paul has defeated on his record and came into the bout in December with a 10-1-1 record.
    But his next opponent is said to have a better ring resume with title belts to his name.
    Paul said: “He’s a professional boxer with an even better record that Andre August and there will be an announcement coming soon.
    “But again, it’s another step up in competition, he’s won regional titles etc.
    “Announcement will be coming soon but another step up in competition and continuing to challenge myself March 2nd.”
    Bidarian added that Paul’s next opponent will be confirmed and announced on January 30.

    Tommy Fury’s dad John CONFIRMS talks for Jake Paul rematch and responds to rumours of ‘heated’ row with YouTube star

    JOHN FURY has CONFIRMED talks with Jake Paul over a rematch for his son Tommy – and responded to rumours of a “heated” row. Paul last February suffered the first defeat of his career by losing a split-decision to Fury in Saudi Arabia.

    He has bounced back with two wins and revealed negotiations are going on behind the scenes for a rematch.
    But Paul claimed the Furys were only interested in raising the payday figure and questioned if they were purposely pricing themselves out.
    John has now hit back to deny that the phone call was a heated one but insisted his son should stand to make more the second time around.
    He told the Daily Mail, via Free Bets: “I’m at a loss to know what that heated conversation was. I thought we spoke and had a nice, intelligent conversation.

    “So, I don’t know where all this c**p is coming from. There was never a heated conversation, nothing like that. 
    “I thought it went quite well so I don’t understand what people are having their tuppence about because that just wasn’t the case.
    “Both sides were very respectful. I knew what we want and they know what they want so we just have to meet in the middle somewhere. I’m sure that can be achieved. 
    “You’re going to hear all that second guessing, second hand information and people putting their ten pence in.

    “It’s all clickbait rubbish. We had a meeting and it went very well for our first chat. 
    “I think the Pauls are doing an excellent job at what they do, but so are we. Don’t forget, we are the victors here. We are the ones in charge.
    “We are in the driving seat. They got the best of it last time, so it’s up to me as Tommy’s representative and father, that we get the best of it this time. I’m sure we will.”
    Paul beat ex-UFC star Nate Diaz, 38, on points and knocked out American boxer Andre August, 35, since suffering his first defeat.
    The 27-year-old now returns on March 2 on the undercard of Amanda Serrano’s Puerto Rico homecoming with an opponent yet to be announced.
    Fury, 24, has also not returned since beating Paul’s arch YouTube rival KSI, 30, via controversial decision in October.
    And talks have since cooled with Paul, as John said: “We spoke to them about six weeks ago and we’ve not heard anything since.
    “I’m not sure what is going on behind the scenes. But, the buck stops with me. Right here.
    “People can say what they want and do what they want, but the bottom line is that it has to go through me and Tommy.”

    Francis Ngannou already setting up stunning fight with Deontay Wilder BEFORE sharing ring with Anthony Joshua

    FRANCIS NGANNOU is already calling out Deontay Wilder – before even fighting Anthony Joshua. Ngannou last year put on hold his MMA career to cross over to boxing for a bout with WBC champion Tyson Fury.

    And he astonishingly floored Fury only to lose a controversial split-decision in Saudi Arabia.
    Now, he will return to the boxing ring on March 8 back in Saudi, this time against Joshua.
    But already Ngannou has his eyes set on Wilder, who blew a super-fight with AJ following defeat to Joseph Parker.
    Ngannou told Sky Sports: “I’m here for the boxing career and there I have a lot of challenges, a lot of names.
    READ MORE IN BOXING
    “For example, the top three guys that I’ve always had are Fury, Joshua and Wilder.
    “Wilder better get it together because I’m not done, I want that name on my record.”
    Fury, 35, faces Oleksandr Usyk, 36, on February 17 in Saudi in what is the heavyweight division’s first four-belt unification.
    So Ngannou, 37, was left to weigh up his options after being denied a rematch.

    But Joshua, 34, became available following defeat for Wilder, 38, who saw their £100million fight deal go up in smoke.
    The beaten American’s next move remains up in the air.
    But Ngannou revealed there were talks for the two to fight in The Professional Fighters League, the MMA promotion he is signed to.
    He said: “Two months ago, we were talking about fighting Deontay Wilder in the PFL. The landscape can change quick. Everything is possible.”

    UFC legend Ngannou, 37, will cross over to the world of boxing once more after his stunning display against Tyson Fury, when he went the distance and even knocked the Gypsy King down with a powerful punch.
    The Cameroonian went on to lose by a controversial split decision but his performance earned him a bout with Joshua, 34, which will take place on March 8 in Saudi Arabia.
    And Hearn is convinced the Brit will do what Fury couldn’t, and that is knock the MMA hero out.
    He told Matchroom Boxing: “I do [believe Joshua will knock Ngannou out].

    “I believe that he is going to wear him down and chop him down and by the end of the eighth round this fight will be over.
    “Anthony Joshua will be ready to fight for the undisputed world championship.”
    That undisputed showdown would be against either Fury or Oleksandr Usyk, who will face off for all titles on February 17.
    Joshua has shaken off his two consecutive losses to Usyk with three big wins over Jermaine Franklin, Robert Helenius and Otto Wallin.

    The wins have improved Joshua’s record, which now stands at 27 wins and three losses from 30 fights. More

    Hearn fears Tyson Fury is ‘shot’ and his chin may be ‘gone’ as he reveals AJ could have fought Ngannou before rival

    Fury, 35, has been dropped five times in his last eight fights – with four of the brutal knockdowns being dished out by rival Deontay Wilder.
    The most recent of those knockdowns came at the hands of former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou, who was making his pro boxing debut in their Saudi showdown last October.
    And that knockdown has Hearn wondering if Fury’s punch resistance is gone ahead of his undisputed clash with Oleksandr Usyk next month.
    He told The Mirror: “He dropped Fury and that gave him credibility. What we don’t know is was it a one-off?

    “But we know the confidence he has from that fight will push him on in this fight.
    “But we’ve seen him now and Ben Davison has 10 rounds to come up with a gameplan.
    “Maybe [Fury] is a shot fighter, we’ll find out on February 17.
    “It’s very difficult to imagine going into a fight having no idea what the other guy is going to do.

    “You’ve got to figure it out from the first bell.
    “How big a puncher is Ngannou? People tell us he’s a monstrous puncher but is Fury’s chin going? We’ll have to find out.”
    Hearn’s long-time client and pal Anthony Joshua will look to dispose of Ngannou in better fashion than Fury when they clash in Riyadh on March 8.
    And the Matchroom Boxing chief has revealed AJ could have fought The Predator before Fury got his hands on him
    He said: “We had the opportunity to fight Ngannou before but AJ didn’t want to do it.
    “He said he is a serious guy who wants to win a heavyweight championship.
    “But I thought Ngannou beat Fury, if he didnt, it was a draw, or he lost by a round, it was that close.”
    Joshua, 34, is refusing to underestimate Ngannou after seeing him embarrass Fury by putting him on his backside.
    He said: “If Tyson underestimated Ngannou, I sure won’t. Francis has lost the element of surprise with me.
    “We knew Francis had a reputation as the biggest puncher in the world but the surprise was how well he boxed.

    His trio of wins have put him on the cusp of potentially fighting for the IBF heavyweight title, which is expected to become vacant after Fury’s undisputed title fight with Oleksandr Usyk next month.
    Reclaiming the IBF crown for the second time could pave the way for a historic domestic dust-up with Fury, provided his fellow Brit gets through Usyk.
    The boxing world is currently divided over who will win the showdown following AJ’s resurgence and Fury’s embarrassing display against debutant Francis Ngannou last October.
    But boxing icon Tyson has already made a definitive prediction for the Battle of Britain, telling Haute Living: “I love Joshua, but I think Tyson’s too elusive he’s not going to hit him.

    “We’re keeping it honest right?

    “If he doesn’t punch faster than Wilder, he’s not going to f**king touch this guy.
    “That’s just what I see. He punches hard, but he doesn’t punch fast.
