He also called his upcoming fight a bank robbery-
“You gotta go in there and get the job done. And then they are like, Oh you got Tyron Woodley now. No problem, that’s why I got the ski mask on. They are going to give me a big bag to go to beat the guy, I already beat. This is a bank robbery.”
These comments show that ‘The Problem Child’ is extremely confident in his ability to go 5-0 as a professional boxer. However, Woodley has spent time with his opponent in a professional setting and can craft a game plan.
Jake Paul vs Tyron Woodley should be different from the first fight
The original scrap on August 29 was a slugfest that could have gone in either way. Although Paul earned a controversial decision-win, the former UFC champion did enough damage to ensure the 24-year-old didn’t get a unanimous decision. He almost stopped ‘The Problem Child’ in round four, but couldn’t capitalize on that moment.
