Jake Paul vs Tyron Woodley did not turn out to be as exciting as fans thought it would be. The fight started off with both fighters just weighing each other up and keeping their distance. As the fight wore on both fighters got heavy-handed and started swinging.

Tyron Woodley failed to open his hands up during the first couple of rounds, which promote his corner to ask him to start throwing in between rounds. Woodley started connecting and stunned Paul with a left hook that threw Paul onto the ropes.

Ariel Helwani conducted the ringside interviews as Paul basked in his latest victory in front of his home crowd. Tyron ‘The Chosen One’ Woodley quickly came up to Ariel Helwani and announced how he felt he won the fight and demanded Jake for a rematch.

Tyron Woodley: “I feel like I won the fight. F*** the Tommy Fury fight, me and Jake need to run that back. I want a rematch.” Paul responded by asking Woodley that if he gets the ‘I love Jake Paul’ tattoo, he’ll give him the rematch – Woodley agrees and they shake hands.

Woodley agreed to the bizarre tattoo bet that both the fighters shook on during one of their first press conferences. Jake ‘The Problem Child’ Paul even invited celebrity Tattoo artist Tatu Baby to the fight so that the loser could get inked as soon as the fight ended.

Twitter went into a frenzy over the clause set by Paul for a rematch. Former UFC champions like Daniel Cormier advised Woodley against getting the tattoo. Having an ‘I Love Jake Paul’ tattoo on their body would be embarrassing for anybody, more so a former UFC Welterweight champion.
