Speaking on IMPAULSIVE Podcast, Jake Paul said, “We did a little face-off, while we were doing a photoshoot for the assets for the posters, and no one was there besides our teams. There was no media, and it wasn’t for the public to see. And I saw a different Tyron [Woodley] than I saw in the public face-off.”

He added, “I saw a Tyron who sort of looked me in my face and in my eyes and saw me with my shirt off, and I am pretty sure he was wearing lifts in his shoes in the public face-off. Because when we face off for the second time, much shorter guy.”

Will Jake Paul punish Tyron Woodley?

‘The Chosen One’ Tyron Woodley will be the first big test in Jake Paul’s combat career. Although ‘The Problem Child’ has a record of 3-0, none of those wins have come against an elite striker. Hence, Tyron Woodley will be the first champion-level striker to share the ring with ‘The Problem Child’.

Although Tyron Woodley departed from the UFC after his fourth consecutive loss, he is still a top-tier combatant. Hence, the former champion can bring a harsh reality into the display for Paul. Before losing his UFC world title, ‘T-Wood’ staged a sensational run in the sport. Hence, Jake Paul might not have an easy night against him.
