Jake Paul and Tyron Woodley went to war in an eight-round boxing match in Clevland. Even though both men went the full eight-rounds, the fight didn’t live up to the hype. ‘The Problem Child’ won the bout and further continued his win streak by (4-0) after this victory.
The former UFC fighter demanded a rematch in the post-fight interview. Paul replied by claiming if Woodley gets the ‘I love Jake Paul’ tattoo, he’ll give him the rematch.

Woodley accepted the demand and many fans and celebrities went into a frenzy after this. The current UFC bantamweight champion Aljamain Sterling and former UFC fighter Daniel Cormier took to Twitter to share their disgust over the clause.
Maybe I’m crazy, but I just feel “MY” dignity is worth more than the payday for a rematch like this. Maybe it’s bc I’m not in that situation but it’s like will things really be different?
Woodley has all tools in the world, and has been on top with those skills. Different times.

Cormier also advised Woodley against getting the tattoo for a rematch, saying, “And f*ck that tattoo Tyron! Don’t do it” on his Twitter account.
And fuck that tattoo Tyron! Don’t do it

Jake Paul vs Tyron Woodley rematch?
Following his loss against the YouTuber turned boxer, the former welterweight fighter demanded an instant rematch, as the result did not convince him. In the post fighter interview with Ariel Helwani, the former UFC fighter said, “I feel like I won the fight. F*** the Tommy Fury fight, me and Jake need to run that back. I want a rematch.”
Jake Paul agreed on a rematch only if Woodley gets a tattoo of his name. The former welterweight immediately agreed to Paul’s demand. Hence, this rematch might be in fruition.
However, it boggles fans and former fighters that Woodley is so desperate for a rematch he will get an embarrassing tattoo on his body. What are your thoughts on this?
