Paul, 25, most recently beat UFC legend Anderson Silva, 47, in October and is set to return again in February.

He tipped the scales at 13st 3lb for the fight, which is nothing compared to Big Boy, who is known to weigh over 23 STONE.

But Johns is instead focusing his efforts on ex-UFC champion Tito Ortiz, 47, who was knocked out by Silva in 2021.

Big Boy said: "He tried to call me out. He wants that payday with me, wants to throw hands, so I said, 'Let's run it'.
