Tyron Woodley is looking to knockout Jake Paul
After getting Jake Paul's name tattooed on his finger following a split decision loss in their first encounter, Tyron Woodley looks to even the series this Saturday. To fully set the record straight, Woodley believes he needs to knock Jake Paul out this time.
In a sit-down with 'TMZ Sports', Woodley noted that Jake Paul had gone back on his word when it came to offering him a rematch. The 'Problem Child' previously said that Woodley would get a rematch if he got 'I Love Jake Paul' tattooed on him.
Instead, Paul matched up with Tommy Fury instead. However, 'TNT' had to pull out of their Showtime bout, which led to Woodley getting a second crack. The former UFC welterweight champion revealed that Paul was going to pay for it by getting laid out inside the squared circle.
"He made a double wager and then didn’t honor it because s**t, why would he go back and give me the chance to finish off what I started now that I’ve been in there with him. I just feel like, definitely [I have to knock him out] I can’t leave any doubt," said Tyron Woodley.
