Hasim Rahman Jr wants to challenge bridgerweight champion Oscar Rivas after his ring showdown with Jake Paul.
YouTube star Paul was set to face long-term rival Tommy Fury this August but the Briton was banned from travelling to the US which saw the fight collapse. Paul r eplaced Fury with Rahman Jr, who holds a professional record of 12-1 and will step in at short notice in New York next month.
Rahman Jr is looking to bounce back after suffering his first career defeat against James Morrison last time out. He believes that a victory over Paul would raise his profile and see him one step closer to a future world title shot.
