Jake Paul and Tyron Woodley will meet inside the squared circle in a short-notice boxing rematch this evening in Tampa, Florida.
Paul (4-0) previously defeated Woodley (0-1) by split decision in a high-profile boxing match which took place back earlier this summer in Cleveland. ‘The Chosen One’ hurt the YouTube sensation in that fight and nearly earned a knockdown. However, Jake Paul would ultimately land the better volume of strikes throughout the course of the contest and thus walked away with the split decision victory.
Tyron Woodley will try to overcome a five-fight losing skid when he returns to the ring this evening. ‘T-Wood’ ended his mixed martial arts career suffering four straight losses inside of the Octagon.
As for Jake Paul, ‘The Problem Child’ will be looking to improve his record to a perfect 5-0 this evening. Prior to defeating Woodley back in August, Paul was coming off a first round knockout victory over former MMA champion Ben Askren (see that here).
