“I’m on a path to World Championship, and if Tommy gets realistic, you know, we can make that happen,” Paul said. “But he’s just like out-priced himself. I’m the only thing that Tommy has.

According to Paul, the loss no longer keeps him up at night. The YouTuber-turned-boxer said he’s focused on bigger names now, insisting that one fight won’t define his career.
