This will be Paul's first appearance in the boxing ring since he faced Floyd Mayweather in an eight-round exhibition bout in June 2021. Lately, Paul has been focusing more on his WWE career as a professional wrestler.
“I am returning to boxing on October 14 after fighting Floyd Mayweather over two years ago,” Paul wrote on social media. "I doubt this little parasite will show up, but if it does, I'll wipe it off the face of the earth."
As for Denis, the former grappling champion will have his first professional performance in over four years. The Irishman has two wins in two Bellator fights, but is best known as a longtime coach and sparring partner of Conor McGregor.
