The reporter asked him whether he’s still sticking with Jake Paul as his favorite to win this fight. To which, Tyson reverted, “He hasn’t lost yet…I think it’ll be a tough fight. When asked about Jwhat ake Paul’s biggest advantage will be, Tyson replied, His fist.”
Jake Paul last fought the former UFC welterweight, Ben Askren. ‘The Problem Child’ slept ‘Funky’ inside the very first round and went 3-0 in his career. However, fans raised questions about his credentials as he boxed against a grappler. Hence, to respond to these doubters, Jake Paul finally set himself up for a fight against the ex-UFC welterweight champ, Tyron Woodley.

The latter’s concluding years in the promotion weren’t good by any means (lost to Kamaru Usman, Colby Covington, Vicente Luque, and Gilbert Burns). However, in his prime, ‘The Chosen One’ outclassed many opponents with his clean and powerful striking.
Hence, Jake Paul ‘The Problem Child’ couldn’t have asked for a better opponent, as Woodley is himself hungry to make some statements by winning against the 24-year-old.
Jake Paul or Tyron Woodley – Who has an edge in this fight?
