Brad Pauls eyes world title after next defence

Brad Pauls says defending his British title will open the door to a world-title shot. The champion told BBC Sport he expects bigger fights once he navigates his mandatory.

“I never look past an opponent, but I understand that defending this belt will set me up for bigger fights, potentially a world title”

What Brad Pauls said

Pauls holds a British belt and faces a defence before moving up the ranks. A successful outing would position him for sanctioning consideration at world level, though no opponent has been confirmed for the mandatory.

What it moves

Pauls is targeting the world stage but must first handle the task in front of him. His promoter will likely use a win to push for eliminator status or a regional title that carries a world ranking.
