Paul enters his blockbuster fight with a 10-1 professional record. His only loss since moving into the professionals ranks was a narrow split decision loss against Tommy Fury. There’s already a lot of interest in where the YouTube star goes next.
His fight against Tyson caught many off guard when announced, and he’s had a vast array of opponents ranging from former NBA player Nate Robinson to UFC royalty such as Anderson Silva and Nate Diaz to legitimate journeymen boxers Andre August and Ryan Bourland.

He’s made no secret of his desire for a money-spinning bout against Canelo Alvarez, arguably the best pound-for-pound boxer in the world in what would be a complete mis-match. He’s also been linked with a fight with fellow YouTube-star-turned-boxer KSI, who beat his brother, Logan Paul, years ago, or a rematch with Tommy Fury.
Who could he fight next? Betfair says Canelo is the favorite, with another fight against Nate Diaz or big-name boxers such as Ryan Garcia, Amir Khan and Manny Pacquiao touted as possible options. Other names with odds being offered by Betfair include far less likely options, such as Elon Musk and Mr Beast.
