YouTube sensation-turned-prizefighter Jake Paul will step back into the boxing ring Saturday night. He’s aiming to keep his undefeated record intact when he faces former UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley in a rematch of their August clash that ended in a controversial split-decision victory for Paul.
The return bout is taking place in at Amalie Arena in Tampa, Fla., and is being broadcast on Showtime PPV.
HALE: People need to stop saying that Jake Paul is bad for boxing
Paul was originally scheduled to face Tommy Fury in his fifth professional fight, but a rib injury and chest infection forced the younger half-brother of Tyson Fury out of the bout. In need of an opponent, Paul turned to Woodley. The former mixed martial artist was more than happy to step in on short notice, especially after openly campaigning for the rematch.
Their first fight left Woodley with an “I love Jake Paul” tattoo on his middle finger.
Woodley now has his opportunity at revenge. Can he make good on his promise to stop Paul, or will Paul “Leave No Doubt,” as the event’s tagline suggests?
