What has been said between Jake Paul and Julio César Chávez Jr?
Paul's rise through boxing's landscape from showman novelty to potential contender speaks arguably more to his broad appeal beyond the sport's usual fan base.
But he has frequently proven he can walk the walk, even if his choice of opponents are yet to represent higher-tier tests in terms of modern-day currency.
His win over Tyson, regardless of format, is something he will be able to carry with him across the rest of his career, no matter how long it lives on beyond this.
Certainly on DAZN Face-Off, the star appeared comfortable with irking his decorated opponent, referring to him as an "angry little elf".
Chavez Jr., for his part, has vowed to put Paul in his place and stop him in his tracks as he chases a strap and a legacy of his own.
