Former UFC welterweight champion, Tyron Woodley is set to take on YouTuber turned pro-boxer, Jake Paul in a boxing match next. A former UFC legend, Georges St-Pierre, shared his prediction for the upcoming fight recently. ‘Rush’ sat down for a chat with his coach, Firas Zahabi.
The duo discussed many things. Among which was the upcoming fight between Paul and Woodley. Many fans, especially the ones from the MMA community, have pinned their hopes on Woodley to hand Paul the first loss of his boxing career. But GSP believes it won’t be easy for ‘The Chosen One’ to do so.

“Definitely, it’s a different sport. In MMA I would say no. But in boxing, he is much bigger than Tyron Woodley. And also he is training very hard. I am not saying that’s what’s gonna happen, but I know he definitely can do it,” said St-Pierre.
The Canadian legend certainly has a point here. Paul has been training in boxing for a considerable amount of time now. Woodley, on the other hand, doesn’t specialize in the craft of boxing.
T-Wood is hands down one of the greatest welterweights in the history of the UFC. His recent skid might fool the fans into thinking otherwise. But boxing is a different sport and requires a different type of preparation. So, how the fight actually plays out, remains to be seen.

Both men have their respective strengths and advantages over the other. Woodley possesses some serious heat in his punches and also is super fast. However, ‘The Problem Child‘ will have the youth advantage over the former UFC champion.
But it would definitely be the toughest test of Paul’s career for sure. How he copes up with a world-class combat athlete who can actually strike will give the fans a fair idea about the abilities that the YouTuber possesses inside the squared ring.
