Brad Pauls says he is open to a third British middleweight title fight with Nathan Heaney. <\/b><\/p>\n

Pauls stopped Heaney in the 12th round of their fight in Birmingham on Saturday<\/a> to become the first fighter from Cornwall to win a Lonsdale belt for 85 years.<\/p>\n

The bout was a rematch after the pair drew their first encounter<\/a> in March. <\/p>\n

“It’s something my team’s looking at,” Pauls said, when asked if there could be another bout between the pair.<\/p>\n

“But, for me, there’s many doors opening now. The power’s with me.<\/p>\n

“But, like Nathan did for me, he honoured the rematch and he’s asked for the same. I’ll do the same if that’s what he wants.<\/p>\n

“If not, it could be another British defence against another domestic fighter, or, beating that, it could be a world title shot with my other belt the WBA inter-continental. So there’s many options.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
