Paul, who was in attendance for the event, had a post-fight face-off with Usyk inside the ring. “The Problem Child” subsequently called out Usyk for an MMA fight.
Paul Pays Respect to Boxing Heavyweight Champ
“Congrats to one of the greatest heavyweights of all time [Usyk] on a huge win,” Paul wrote on social media. “I respect you a lot. Now we do an MMA match for the world.”
While Paul started his boxing career against fellow influencers, he first rose to fame in the MMA world when he knocked out former Bellator MMA and ONE Championship title holder Ben Askren. The YouTuber turned boxer has since made a career out of boxing former MMA fighters like Tyron Woodley, Anderson Silva, Nate Diaz and Mike Perry. Paul’s only pro loss came against Tommy Fury, the half-brother of Tyson Fury.
