Jake Paul has been calling out big names in the MMA and boxing world since his knockout victory over Tyron Woodley. Although Jake defeated the former UFC welterweight champion, in August of this year, he had to schedule a rematch because of a sudden change in plan.

Initially, Paul was scheduled to fight British pro boxer Tommy fury, half-brother of boxing legend Tyson Fury. However, the fight got canceled as Tommy pulled out because of a rib injury. This led to Woodley getting the shot at redemption two weeks prior to the fight.
