What have they said?

Paul: “I want to prove to people that I’m a legitimate boxer, legitimate professional boxer with skill and someone that people should be scared of.

“I have knockout power, I’m dangerous, and to me that’s super important and again, that’s just going to take multiple fights to prove that.

“I want to fight the biggest names in the sport, I want to take UFC fighters like Ben Askren, like Masvidal, whoever it is and bring them over to boxing, put them in a ring and go head-to-head with them.

“I want to fight Conor McGregor eventually. Whoever wants to get in the boxing ring with me, I want to be able to do it and beat them.”

Robinson: “I see his brother [Logan] on the Disney channel. Him on Disney doing so much stuff, man! I  follow Jake’s YouTube, of course.

“You and your brother only fight YouTubers, you are gonna fight a real athlete for the first time.”
