Tyron Woodley was looking to even the score when he squared off in a short-notice boxing rematch with Jake Paul on Saturday night.<\/p>\n

Woodley (0-2) and Paul (5-0) had of course previously clashed in a high-profile boxing match earlier this summer in Cleveland, with Jake walking away with a split decision victory.<\/p>\n

Although \u2018The Chosen One\u2019 was able hurt the YouTube sensation in their first fight, nearly earning a knockdown in the process, it was the volume of strikes delivered from Jake Paul that ultimately made the difference in the eyes of judges.<\/p>\n

Tyron Woodley was confident he could right his wrongs in Saturday’s rematch, believing he could make the proper adjustments after watching tape of their first encounter.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt favours me because I\u2019m the person that\u2019s known to make the adjustments. The rematch with ‘Wonderboy’ Thompson, and just in general, really. I\u2019m a professional and my IQ is what made me unique and special in mixed martial arts.” <\/em>Woodley explained pre-fight. “I was in there. I didn\u2019t have footage the first time, I didn\u2019t have any sparring rounds, I didn\u2019t have any shadow boxing, now I have eight full rounds. Not of him vs someone similar to me, him vs me.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Unfortunately for Tyron Woodley Saturday’s rematch with Jake Paul did not end in the story book finish he was hoping for. After five rounds of heavy hugging and clinch work, ‘The Problem Child’ was able to connect with a massive right hand in round six that sent ‘The Chosen One’ crashing face-first into the canvas (see that here<\/a>).<\/p>\n
