And he announced his grand arrival in style, riding into the open workout session on a horse, just days before his battle in the ring.

Paul, 25, said: "I'm going to war. I feel like a warrior a gladiator, that's really what this is on Saturday.

"And I am going to war, this is one of the toughest fighters in the world, a combat sports legend.

"It's not going to be an easy fight, so I've got to come in on the horse like I'm preparing for battle."

Paul last fought in December, knocking out Tyron Woodley, 40, four months after beating the ex-UFC champion on points.

That added to KOs over online rival AnEsonGib, ex-NBA star Nate Robinson, 38, and retired UFC welterweight Ben Askren, also 38.

Woodley only filled on under two weeks' notice after Tommy Fury, 23, pulled out of his grudge match against Paul with a rib injury.

The celeb mega-fight was rescheduled for August in New York - but that was soon KOd when Fury suffered US visa issues.

Heavyweight Hasim Rahman Jr, 31, signed as a substitute, only for lightening to strike twice, this time due to a weight disagreement.

And Paul has vowed to take his anger out in the ring against Silva, promising another viral KO.

He said: "Everything happens for a reason, so I'm just excited to put on a show. I'm trying to get that KO of the year part two."
