Paul was recently spotted in a gym, honing his skills on a punching bag. Combat sports news outlet Happy Punch took to X and shared the clip of his training session.
Fans soon rushed to the comments section to share their reactions.
One fan mocked Paul, writing:
''Going out on a stretcher''
Another one stated:
''Dudes been boxing for like 4-5 years and still can’t properly punch, dude needs a new coach asap''
Other fans wrote:
''It’s probably not going to be a real fight, I’m thinking exhibition match. Regardless, I think Conor will win. Conor did well against Floyd, I’m sure he’s been training for this.''
''Logan never impressed me in the actual fights because he gasses out after 2 rounds and 30 seconds but his bag work is looking good. Dude got a good right hook to the head left hook to the body combo. Just cant translate it in the ring.''
