Understandably, the Maverick mogul seemed pumped at Bieber’s recognition – and even hopes that the star will be sitting ringside during his rematch.

“Listen, we all know Bieber’s the GOAT,” Paul replied. “And he’s smart. He’s rooting for me in this fight. If he wants me to tear KSI’s head off, Imma fuckin’ do it! …you know I love you, Biebs. I wanna see you at the fight!”
