Paul hinted he’d immediately exercise the rematch clause in his contract to face the former Love Islander but has since opted to box mixed martial arts legend Diaz.
But The Problem Child inists he still has unfinished business with Fury, saying: “I know I can beat Tommy.
“That was the worst version of me possible.
“It just wasn’t my night, he was the better man, he had an amazing performance, and congrats to Tommy for that.
“But I wanna come back and take what’s mine from that kid.”
Fury, 23, has relished the biggest win of his career – enjoying a victory lap on mainstream UK TV.
But Paul plans to knock him down a peg or two the next time they share the ring.
The former Disney star said: “I hope he enjoys it.

“You know, you earned it. Respect.
“Enjoy it for as long as possible because you’re not going to have the taste of victory on your tongue for a while.”
Paul will throw down with MMA fan favourite Diaz – who left the UFC last September – in a Dallas dust-up on August 5.
