Following the incident, Tyron Woodley shared his thoughts on what had just happened. He said, “One thing I don’t do is disrespect. And when disrespect comes to my mother, it’s a whole issue. F**k this money, f**k this bag, f**k the pay-per-view, f**k the fight. When it comes to that it will not be tolerated.”

“At the end of the day, they didn’t like what I said, well s**t’s the truth. So they started going back and forth and talking. Which they’re more than willing to do. But what you’re not willing to do is f***ing talk to my mother any type of way…. I don’t care if you kill my friend, I am never going to speak on nobody mom.”

Did Jake Paul and his team cross the line with Tyron Woodley?

It is well documented that Woodley adores his mother. He often credits the fighting spirit he has inherited to his mother as she worked multiple jobs round the clock as the sole provider for her family. Woodley’s mother is also well-loved and respected in the MMA community for the way she embraces Woodley’s opponents following a win or a loss.
