Paul said, “I think Tommy Fury is a different style obviously than Tyron, but he definitely doesn’t have as much experience. But to answer that question of do you think Tyron is harder than Tommy, my overall answer is yes.”

Jake Paul entered his last boxing bout against the UFC hard hitter, Tyron Woodley. He began the fight well by striking Woodley with his jabs and right hands in the first few rounds. However, that was as per ‘The Chosen One’s plan as he wanted ‘The Problem Child’ to gas out.
