Paul then challenged Usyk to an MMA fight, which left boxing fans baffledAfter the Ukrainian superstar extended his undefeated streak to a staggering 24 fights, , 28, stepped inside the ring to confront the victor.

Paul tweeted: “Congrats to one of the greatest heavyweights of all time @usykaa on a huge win.
“I respect you a lot. Now we do an MMA match for the world @MostVpromotions.”;
Fans were left baffled and stormed the comments’ section to state the obvious.
One fan tweeted: “So you box MMA fighters and now you wanna fight MMA against boxers?! Make it make sense.”;
Another commented: “Lmao. God forbid you box an active boxer, huh?”;
A third wrote: “Boxes old age retired people Wrestles real world class boxers. Must be opposite day.”;
This one said: “Wait, he’s a boxer, and you’re a boxer, right? Why not errrm box?”;
And that one stated: “So when it’s and MMA legend, you box. When it’s a boxer, you do MMA.”;
Ever since crossing over to boxing, Paul has mainly shared the ring with retired athletes â mainly from MMA â who never boxed.
The social media sensation also had a highly-publicised and controversial bout last year with a then 58-year-old .
The promoter has only faced one active boxer in Tommy Fury, to whom he lost.
