Paul, 26, dropped Diaz in the fifth round with a neat check left hook but did little to impress those in attendance at the American Airlines Center.

The social media sensation was showered with boos during his post-fight interview and reacted angrily to the post-fight hate.

He roared “boo if you’re a virgin” and cupped his right ear to further rile up the crowd.

Victory over Diaz saw Paul somewhat remove the bitter taste of defeat to Tommy Fury from his mouth.

Although he didn’t get the finish, Paul was happy with his display against the mixed martial arts legend.

He said: “I knocked him down, won basically every round. I think he won one round but he’s a warrior.

“I had him hurt in the first round, he kept on coming.

“All credit to my team, my conditioning, going ten rounds in my eighth fight, it’s unheard of.

“I’ve only been boxing for three years, he’s a UFC legend, I was watching this kid growing up.”

Former Disney star Paul found himself caught in an illegal guillotine choke in the closing seconds of the fight.

And he plans to give Diaz the opportunity to level their series in a mixed martial arts fight in the PFL.

The Problem Child said: “I want to run it back in MMA. Yeah, $10million PFL that’s the offer let’s run it back in MMA.

“Make it fair, I won one, now it’s your chance in your territory, MMA let’s do it.”

When quizzed on the chokehold, Paul said: “He f***ing choked me.

“He was actually choking me.

“I was like, ‘This is crazy.’ I didn’t think he was gonna stop, he had it in. It’s funny.

“That’s why I wanna run it back in MMA.

“If it was in MMA, I would’ve dropped to a double leg, picked him up and dropped him on his head.”
