“Absolutely, “Paul told Fight Hype.

“I would love to fight Conor McGregor. Here’s the caveat, I don’t want to do it in the next two years.

“I need time to get better and for him to get older.

“Let the man age a little bit, let me get a bit better and start to peak – then I’ll take on McGregor.

“I am a lot bigger than him, 20-30lbs heavier.”

The likes of WBO super-middleweight world champion Billy Joe Saunders and lightweight contender Devin Haney feature on the undercard, which could be one of the most viewed boxing events of the year.
