The pair sat down together ahead of their fight on Saturday to exchange in a war of words before they take that battle to the ring.

Journalist Ariel Helwani was moderating the interview and posted a short clip on social media of what happened.

YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul was lavishing praise on his opponent.

He said: “He’s a warrior. He’s put on some of the greatest fights in the history of MMA. He has an amazing fan base and people love him for a reason.

“I know he’s coming to bring a war. That’s what it says ‘ready for a f***ing war’. I think the fans are the ones who are going to win the most out of it because we both don’t want to lose or back down.”

Helwani teased that the full video will be posted soon, which should provide full context on what happened.
