Recent Form:

Paul looks to cement his tenth pro outing in similar fashion to his last victory which saw him secure a first-round knockout over Andre August in December. The win was his second since a split-decision loss to Tommy Fury in February 2023.

Bourland's two professional losses came in 2015 and 2018 respectively, but the American hasn't fought in over a year since stopping Santario Martin in five rounds.

The fight will be only the second time Paul has fought outside of his home country - the only other being the Fury defeat last year.

Undercard:

Amanda Serrano vs Nina Meinke - WBA, WBO and IBF featherweight titles - 12 x 3 (MAIN EVENT)

Jonathan Gonzalez vs Rene Santiago - WBO light-flyweight title - 12 x 3

Betting Odds:

Paul enters a big favourite with BetVictor offering him at 1/12, carrying an implied probability of a whopping 92.31% of him winning.

The former YouTube star is also 1/5 to win inside the distance with Coral. William Hill have him at near evens (11/10) to win inside the first two rounds.

Bourland meanwhile enters a heavy underdog with StarSports offering him at 14/1 to win on the moneyline.

Prediction:

There's a reason Paul is heavily-backed to secure a ninth pro win against his inactive American counterpart. OddsNow back the former to secure the victory in style with another win inside the distance.
