Paul insisted in the lead up to the boxing bout that he would be open to running it back in the cage or with exposed fists.

I’m down for it all,” Paul told Ariel Helwani. “I love combat, I love going to war, this is what I was destined for and in two years I will be the cruiserweight champion of the f***ing world.”Paul, 27, was due to fight Mike Tyson, 58, in front of over 70,000 in Texas in a controversial clash scrutinised for the 30-year age gap.
