The anticipation is building for Sunday night's fight between Jake Paul and Tyron Woodley, with the two having some choice words for each other in their pre-fight press conference on Thursday. Mike Tyson, who is a fan of Paul, recently gave his take on who he thinks will win the bout. Via TMZ Sports:
“It's going to be a tough fight, but Paul will prove to be too much for Woodley.”
Jake Paul is actually the betting favorite ahead of the fight, much in part to his boxing experience. He has a perfect 3-0-0 record, while Woodley hasn't actually boxed anyone yet. Mike Tyson clearly isn't worried about Woodley's UFC resume when it comes to stepping in the ring. From a size standpoint, Paul is substantially bigger than Woodley, standing a few inches taller and also weighing more.
After all, Woodley is also more of a wrestler than anything else, but he's been working tirelessly at becoming a better boxer. Based on the smack talk the two exchanged on Thursday, this should be a very interesting fight, to say the least. Woodley absolutely hates Jake Paul and will be looking to prove Mike Tyson wrong in Cleveland.
This should be a treat to watch.
