But trash-talker Paul might have been left with nothing to say for the first time in his life after witnessing Wilder’s most recent KO.
The ex-WBC heavyweight champion landed a trademark right hand with Helenius out for the count and needing medical assistance.
Paul reacted by uploading a video on social media, with an open mouth and nothing to say.
The American, 25, may use it as inspiration for his next fight, against UFC legend Anderson Silva, 47, on October 29 in Arizona.
Wilder, 36, was returning after a year out the ring, following a brutal KO loss to Tyson Fury, 34, in their epic Las Vegas trilogy bout.
But the Bronze Bomber wasted no time in announcing himself back to the heavyweight division as Helenius, 38, lasted just under three minutes.
Wilder said: “Deontay Wilder is back. The excitement in the heavyweight division is back.
“There’s no heavyweight division without Deontay Wilder.”
