Although neither Paul nor the Browns made clear the specific terms of their agreement, don’t count on him to wear a uniform when the Browns take on the New Orleans Saints on Saturday in miserable Cleveland weather. NFL players are not permitted to wear the number 00. (Not that this was the only clue.)
Paul was raised in West Lake, Ohio, after being born in Cleveland, Ohio. He has a 6-0 record in boxing, with his most recent victory coming in October over former UFC champion Anderson Silva.
