      The Problem Child has not been in the ring since beating Nate Diaz in May, having tasted defeat for the first time at the hands of Fury before that.
      Now, he has revealed he is eyeing December 15 for his highly-anticipated return.
      A potential opponent is yet to be named, but Paul declared he would be looking to face a professional boxer as he continues his unlikely quest to become a world champion.
      Ahead of last Saturday’s fights, Paul said: “I’m looking at some pro boxers.

      “Because I want to take this more traditional boxing route of moving up into the rankings, fighting professionals and taking the route to become world champion like a prospect of my calibre. 
      “So we’re looking at some pro boxers and they’re not going to be big names by any means.”
      Asked if that comes with risk, Paul said: “I want to be world champion, though. And there’s risk, for sure. 
      “But, for me I want to challenge myself, continue to grow in this sport and get to the top of it, from a skill level, 100 per cent that’s my goal.”

      The fight is set to not be a Pay-Per-View bout, with Paul’s Most Valuable Promotions (MVP) teaming up with DAZN to announce the date.
      It will be his ninth professional bout, having won seven and lost one so far.
      That loss to Fury was the only time Paul had come up against a boxing professional, having previously taken on a host of fellow social media stars and MMA fighters.
      The 26-year-old told MVP: “Eight fights in the boxing game and I’m already its biggest name.
      “I’ve proved that I can headline the biggest global events and defy the odds. PPV after PPV after PPV, and I’m just getting started.
      “My mission is to be a world champion and I’m willing to do whatever it takes to get there. December 15th is the next step on my journey, and I promise you’re not going to want to miss it.”
      After the fight, Fury claimed he was “done” with crossover events, before immediately calling out the Paul brothers.
      He said: “I’m done with the bulls***. F*** the bulls****, on to the next challenge. Any of the Pauls want it I welcome it with open arms.” More

      He stood to win £1.1million if the WWE star beat Danis via knockout in the co-main event of Misfits Boxing’s Prime card.
      However, Drake had appeared to lose his bet after the bout went the distance.
      The controversial ending to the fight has instead seen him cash in his incredible bet.
      As the final bell rang, Danis attempted to choke out Paul, prompting a brawl to break out in the ring and the Bellator fighter was disqualified.

      Disqualifications count as technical knockouts, meaning Drake was paid out on his massive bet.
      His win saw him avoid his alleged “curse” when it comes to betting on major sporting events.
      Fans have previously noticed that the musician has lost a series of huge bets, most recently on UFC 293 last month.
      Drake had backed Israel Adesanya to defend his middleweight title, only for Stylebender to suffer a shock defeat to Sean Strickland.

      Immediately after the fight, KSI, real name JJ Olatunji fumed: “We’re gonna appeal. I want to appeal. I’m sorry that is outrageous.”
      Speaking on his YouTube channel, Deji launched into an astonishing rant, saying: “I think they didn’t want JJ to win because it will make a mockery of the sport letting JJ, a YouTuber, beat a professional boxer, Tommy Fury.
      “That’s what I believed, and I asked. That’s what I think, they just didn’t want that.
      “As well as the Fury name that was on the line. It would somehow tarnish the Fury name if a YouTuber beat a professional boxer in the Fury family.

      “Which in my opinion is just a bit insane because that’s not fair.
      “It just shows that boxing is… there’s so much corruption in the sport. It’s disgusting bro.
      “Like just seeing that alone is probably turning off a lot of people from boxing.
      “Which is sad because that’s not what we try and do. We want fair quality in the sport so what’s the point of doing that?”

      “Look at you. I’m the YouTuber and you’re the boxer, you have to win.”
      Jake Paul, who also lost to Fury, later took to Twitter to mock his rival’s protestations.

      “Only thing that got robbed is his hair line. It’s okay KSI me too it’s gonna be okay bubba.
      “I took my loss like a man from the scorecard read and showed the youth how to learn from it and come back to take a W.
