In an interview on The Pat McAfee Show, Paul said:

"I don’t think he can knock me out because he’s not going to be able to line up his shots properly to be able to land the hard punch. I think it’s going to be a very tough fight for multiple rounds, but then when I figure out his pacing, his style, his speed, his footwork, he’s going to get a little bit tired trying to chase me around, and then I’m going to set up the shot. I’m not going to say exactly what, but I see what it is and I think it will end in the fifth or sixth round." [H/t: MMA Fighting]
