Paul and Diaz met earlier this month in an entertaining fight which saw Paul emerge victorious on the judges' scorecards. Following the fight, a rematch was discussed, but instead of being inside a boxing ring, it would instead take place inside an MMA cage with the PFL already placing a $10m offer to make the fight happen. 

However, if this fight fails to materialise, "The Problem Child" is eager to face Tommy Fury in a rematch of their contest in February. 

On that occasion, Fury had his hand raised despite being knocked down in the eighth, but Paul is eager to get revenge and claimed this loss has given him extra motivation when progressing his boxing career. 

"I think the Tommy rematch is going to happen at some point, I put him down on the canvas and lost a split decision. He caught me at my worst and kudos to him," Paul said on Hotboxin' with Mike Tyson. 

"I needed the loss, it put me on a new track of having this insane amount of motivation and just being super locked in.

"I wasn't that locked in before and I was trying to cut corners, you just can't do that in this sport.

"When you're beating everyone, putting them down on the canvas, winning knockout of the year and making $10 to $20million, you're kind of like 'Who's going to beat me?' and then you get beat."

Paul will have a keen eye on Fury's next fight when he takes on KSI in one of crossover boxing's biggest matchups on October 14, and it can be seen live on DAZN PPV.
