Paul Slams Diaz With Harsh Words
In the lead-up to the fight, Paul had some choice words for his opponent and the people on his team during a promotional interview with DAZN, stating, “He doesn’t even have that much mental capacity. I think people are scared of him and his wannabe cholo friends. But I think they are all f-ing bird brain idiots”.
Paul then went further with a bold statement: “If you are one of his opponents and you are scared of the way he acts throwing bottles at people, then maybe he can get in your head. But I’m not scared of anything or anyone on his team, anything like that in general. And he is not the smartest person in the world, so his words and the sentences he can’t complete don’t really bother me”.
