Idman.biz reports that the Ukrainian boxer's director, Sergey Lapin, has confirmed the possibility of a fight with American blogger and professional boxer Jake Paul according to MMA rules.
According to Lapin, discussions have already begun and the potential date is the first months of 2026: "We are considering options that are interesting both from a sporting point of view and for the audience. The chances are more equal in MMA. This could turn into a show with a huge global audience."
