Jake Paul, who will fight Tyron Woodley on August 29, is not new to criticizing UFC fighters. ‘The Problem Chid’ has recently made a few uncanny statements that might sound bizarre to the traditional fight fans. While he is already feuding with his upcoming rival Woodley, the 24-year-old has shockingly questioned the UFC veteran’s fighting resume.

5X UFC champion Woodley has faced fighters like Robbie Lawler, Carlos Condit, Darren Till, and many more elites in his MMA career. However, Jake Paul didn’t seem bothered about it. He didn’t acknowledge any of the top-tier names and shocked many fans in the press conference of his upcoming fight.

Jake Paul said, “You [Tyron Woodley] know the whole MMA community is counting on you.”
