Video: Jake Paul goes off on UFC fighter pay, vows to finish Woodley within two rounds

MIAMI – On Thursday, Jake Paul spoke to the media ahead of his upcoming boxing match against Tyron Woodley which takes place on Aug. 28 on Showtime pay-per-view.

The YouTube star made a number of bold claims on Thursday evening before coming face-to-face with Woodley, including a prediction of how the fight will conclude. “I don’t think Tyron can make it out of two rounds, so you might not even see my boxing ability, to be honest,” Paul stated.

“He’s got 86 days from now to try to un-learn all of those bad habits,” Paul said. “We see holes in his whole entire game…he’s stiff, muscles don’t fight, and he’s going to be out of his entire element. This is boxing, this isn’t MMA my friend.”

In addition to sounding off on how he believes Woodley will perform when they meet inside the boxing ring, Paul had plenty to say about UFC fighter pay as well. “The UFC fighters don’t have fair pay,” Paul stated. “Out of all the sports, the percentage that the owners get versus the athletes, they’re the lowest.”
