‘The Conditioning Is Real’- Chael Sonnen Predicts His Winner for Jake Paul vs Tyron Woodley Fight

Former UFC middleweight contender and retired mixed martial artist, Chael Sonnen, predicts his winner for the fight between Jake Paul and Tyron Woodley. Sonnen, detailed in full how both the fighters stack up against each other on his YouTube Channel.

The former fighter turned analyst discussed what was at stake for both men and how they needed to fight against each other to come out victorious.

“I know for sure. The conditioning is real,” he added. “I know the grit is real. I know toughness is real (and) I know dealing with pressure… in the main event spot is real. And these are all the things that I have to give in T-Wood’s (Woodley’s) favor.”

Sonnen then talks about how people undermine a fighter’s ability until and unless they see that from him or her. He thinks people won’t vote in favor of Jake if the battle goes onto the higher rounds.

“How’s Jake gonna do in the 8th round? We have never seen him and I bet he can’t hold up, (but) that doesn’t mean he can’t… T-Wood can go all night, I’ve seen it. T-Wood can fight championship rounds, I’ve seen it. So, how would Jake do when he is tired and when he is hurt?” Sonnen said with some exclamation.
