The clock is ticking for Jake Paul and Tyron Woodley’s second boxing bout of 2021. The pair will meet each other at the Amalie Arena in Tampa this weekend in a fight that is even bigger than the last one. More than anyone else, Woodley is keenly waiting for this bout as he is hungry to level his scores with Paul after his embarrassing defeat last time around.

Showtime released a short documentary for Paul vs Woodley 2, where Woodley shared his true notions about this fight and his rival.

He said, “The fact that he can say he beat me, if I can erase that, that would be worth more than $500,000 to be honest. If you want to make a bet, you never f***ing say you beat me again.”

“He can keep his money, you know, but he won’t do that because to him, it’s not only about money. It’s about him being able to say, ‘I’m a real fighter’. I beat a five-time UFC champion. You know, man, that boils me.”

Paul and Woodley’s previous collision went the distance, and the YouTuber somehow survived the wrath of the ex-UFC elite’s power. After 8 rounds, the judges ruled the decision in ‘The Problem Child’s favor, leaving Woodley livid.

The former UFC kingpin remained assertive on a rematch and he even got a tattoo of Jake Paul’s name (per their wager). However, the 24-year-old moved ahead to seal a fight with ‘TNT’. Later, ‘The Chosen One’ caught a lucky break as Jake Paul approached him the moment Tommy Fury pulled out.
