But a return to the ring isn't too far away for 'The Problem Child' who is set to lace up the gloves in  August for his sixth fight as a professional.

Speaking to The DAZN Boxing Show, Ashton Sylve, who has recently signed with Paul's Most Valuable Promotions, believes Paul is showing clear signs of progression in his five-fight career.

"He’s progressing like any other boxer," Sylve said. 

"He does alright in the ring, but I feel like when the experience kicks in, he does a lot better throughout the rounds.

"In the last fight, the experience kicked in and he understood when Tyron Woodley dropped his hands he knew how to come over that."
