Paul said:
“I don’t think he liked the way I looked at him at dinner or something, but it’s a good thing I’m a professional boxer now who’s 0-1,”
Paul was wearing head gear and was on the receiving end of a massive overhand right which face-planted him to the canvas.
In the grappling segment, Paul did a bit better.
