Former Youtuber turned professional fighter Jake Paul recently participated in an intense fight between himself and his previous opponent Tryon Woodley. The first time these two athletes met in the ring was back in August of this year when Paul was crowned the winner by split-decision at the conclusion of the match. Similar to the first time, the youngest Paul brother came out victorious against Woodley for the second time in a row, this time by a clean knockout win. After gaining the victory in this specific main event on Saturday, December 18, 2021, Jake officially took his boxing career to new heights due to the fact that he has now defeated every single person he has ever fought by KO- Tyron Woodley, Ben Askren, AnEsonGib and Nate Robinson.
Ever since the shocking outcome of this individual fight, Paul has been continuously calling out multiple professional fighters such as Nate Diaz, Masvidal, Kamaru Usman, and even Conor McGregor. The newly pronounced professional boxer claims that he will “embarrass them too,” which is what Paul stated in regards to taking on any one of the previously named fighters. The 24-year-old personality posted on his Twitter account less than a week after his fight with Woodley that stated, “My boxing bucket list: Canelo Alvarez, Floyd Mayweather, Mike Tyson, Tyson Fury, and Dana White.” It is safe to agree that these are a handful of unexpectedly bold choices made by the young confident athlete.
The Ohio-born social media star was initially supposed to take on Tommy Fury, who unfortunately was pulled from the fight due to apparent health issues- Tommy Fury is the younger brother to Tyson Fury, who was crowned as the world heavyweight champion after defeating Deyonte WIlder back on October 9 of this year. Paul commented on Tommy after his fight had ended where he stated, “Tommy Fury is lucky he was not there because Tyron is way tougher,” basically saying that he would have knocked out Fury quicker if he had been able to follow through with the fight. As of right now, Jake Paul’s next match and an opponent is still up in the air, but as things seem to be playing out he will most likely be able to find a truly worthy opponent this time around.
