SunSport was informed by him that he was puzzled about her income when he first met her.
"And how she was mistreated and how she didn’t have a lot of followers online.
"It didn’t make sense to my, I was like, ‘You’re one of the greatest fighters ever, you should get paid millions of dollars'.
She told me that she was fighting for $10,000 and $15,000. It's great to see her finally get a seven-figure paycheck.

Paul stated that "We are just very similar people, regardless of our profession."
"We share a common interest in boxing, but she doesn't have a smartphone and doesn't really understand social media.

"We are both driven, work hard and have a similar sense for humor.
"She needed someone to expose her to the new generation and digital era.
"We have been friends since the beginning and our friendship is growing."

"Even if you practice three times per day, which is insane, it is still inspiring to do three-a-days.
"It can sometimes be a bit more difficult for me to exercise that many times per day.

Two wins by Serrano on Paul's pay per view undercards set up an historic clash with Taylor, the lightweight queen.

"Hopefully these women can set a precedent. That's why this fight goes beyond male and female.
"That's its beauty and that's why it's so exciting for me to be a part. This will be talked about for many reasons.
Serrano, 36, is jumping from her featherweight comfort zone to take on Olympic gold winner Taylor in New York.
Paul, who is staging this fight with Eddie Hearn, supported Serrano in her tireless work to beat unbeaten 20-0 Taylor.
