It's official, Tyron Woodley is going to face Jake Paul in English boxing. The former UFC champion wants to rid boxing of the YouTuber.
Former UFC champion Tyron Woodley and YouTuber Jake Paul will indeed face off in English boxing. The fight will take place in -86kg, on August 28 according to ESPN. After 8 years in the UFC, Tyron Woodley left the league on a four-fight losing streak.
At 39, the man who has had a much maligned reign in the welterweight division will have the opportunity to change the game if he wins. Like his teammate Ben Askren's fight against Jake Paul, the MMA community will be behind him.
"The easiest fight of my career and the biggest payday of my career in one night. Basically, I got called out for taking out the trash. I can't wait to shut that bitch up. I'm going to do it for the culture, for the whole MMA community and the whole boxing community, to rid combat sports of this guy. " - Tyron Woodley
"Tyron is a seasoned striker who has fought the best MMA fighters in the world, but is about to be sent to the mat by a young Disney star in 2 rounds. " - Jake Paul
