August is the most experienced professional boxer that Paul has faced in his career. While he’s proven himself in the ring by defeating former UFC champions and MMA superstars — he most recently defeated Nate Diaz via unanimous decision and took Tommy Fury to a split-decision in his only loss in the ring — August will offer up the stiffest competition to Paul yet.
“He can’t move like me, he’s not as sharp as me. I’m skillful and will be picking him apart,” Paul said at the final press conference. “I doubt he is even going to land a punch; sloppy feet and all that form. I’m going to dust him up real quick and find out who the better boxer is.”
Also on the line on Friday night is the WBC women’s super middleweight title as Shadasia Green and Granchon Crews battle it out during the co-main event. Yoenis Tellezis is also set to take on Livan Navarro in a super middleweight contest, followed by a welterweight battle between Elijah Flores and Javier Mayoral.
