Former UFC welterweight champion, Tyron Woodley was in the headlines throughout 2021. He made his debut in the world of professional boxing this year against Jake Paul but sadly suffered two heartbreaking losses. In his recent outing against the 24-year-old boxer, Woodley suffered a knockout loss.

This has now pushed Jake’s record to an undefeated 5-0 with knockout wins against every opponent that he has faced. Following the conclusion of the rematch, NFL running back, Le’Veon Bell took shots at the former UFC champion for losing the fight and also called out Jake for an exhibition fight.

Tyron Woodley fired back at NFL star and dubbed him as a clout chaser

Now, the former welterweight kingpin has offered his response and suggested that Le’Veon is just chasing fame. Meanwhile, Le’Veon is also known for his boxing ability, as he has been practicing the art form for many years. He is just 29-year-old and is in his athletic prime, which could make for a compelling fight against ‘The Problem Child.’

However, it seems like he has to first get through the retired MMA fighter, as the duo continues to trade shots on Twitter.

Woodley dubbed him a clout chaser, and also stated that the NFL star isn’t courageous enough to step foot in the squared circle and face him head-on. Woodley believes that critiquing from the sidelines is quite easy, but it takes courage to don the gloves and enter the ring.

Le’Veon offered a response as well, stating that he isn’t doing it for the money. He merely wants to do something that Woodley failed to accomplish in his two outings against Jake. He also promised to donate all revenue generated from the fight to charity and claimed that it is really not about money.
