Speaking after the Robinson fight, Paul revealed that he wants to compete against McGregor and the Irishman's teammate Dillon Danis.

"I've been training my a**e off for the past year. I'm taking this seriously," Paul said.
"There's a long list of opponents that I want -- Conor McGregor, Dillon Danis. I'm going to knock them both out.
"There's my brother, KSI on the line, Austin McBroom. I want to be in this sport for a long time. I'm in love with it so why not?"
