But Paul has also been working with a string of top female boxing stars since with Nakisa Bidarian.
And he has struck a major deal with Hearn in a bid to grow the women’s side of the sport.
They have entered a strategic alliance to promote female boxing in a long-term collaboration.
In a statement released on social media, said: “Boxing is a funny old game!
“Pleased to announce our partnership with Most Valuable Promotions, and Nakisa Bidarian across women’s boxing.
“We both share the same vision to support women’s boxing and deliver legacy defining and life-changing opportunities for our fighters. Let the alliance begin!”
Hearn’s defamation lawsuit against Paul did not go to trail after they last year.
The iconic promoter, 47, sued the influencer when it was alleged he had paid veteran judge Glenn Feldman to score fights in favour of Matchroom Boxing’s fighters.

Paul slammed Feldman’s scoring of Anthony Joshua’s rematch loss to Oleksandr Usyk and Katie Taylor’s win over Amanda Serrano – who he promotes.
The explosive claims led to Hearn worth £92MILLION in 2022 before an agreement was reached.
They now appear to have put their differences aside after deciding to come together.
A statement released by Paul and Bidarian read: “Historically, Matchroom played an instrumental role in elevating women’s globally.
“Together, we have an opportunity to create even bigger moments for the sport and the athletes driving it forward.
“This is about investing in the future of the sport and creating the premier destination for the world’s best female fighters.”
