Jake Paul fought Tyron Woodley twice inside the squared circle in 2021, and the former emerged as the winner both times. Recently, Woodley appeared on ‘The Fighter vs. The Writer’ podcast, where he warned Anderson Silva about Paul’s boxing skills.
Woodley stated, “He’s training his a*s off. He’s got KO power, and he’s learned to throw that particular punch that he’s got timing on… I hear people saying ‘now [Jake Paul] fighting a real fighter.’ That s*it right there is funny. I think it’s a good fight. I’ll probably be there.”
