Jake Paul was initially known to be a very popular YouTuber, from 2016-2019. Then, he started to dip into the world of boxing and started fighting amateurs, such as former NBA star, Nate Robinson. That was a knockout win in November 2020, in the Mike Tyson-Roy Jones Jr undercard. Last month, Paul also defeated Tyron Woodley last month, in a split decision. Woodley is regarded as one of the best UFC fighters ever, and this was the first time that he had an actual professional boxing match.
Woodley To Get 'I Love Jake Paul Tattoo'
Woodley and Paul had a tattoo bet, ahead of this fight, and it was an interesting scenario. Woodley had to get an "I love Jake Paul" tattoo, and that's what he plans to do this weekend. In a new interview with MMA reporter Ariel Helwani, Woodley initially tried to get the tat in Cleveland, but there was allegedly no tattoo artist available for him.
The plan now is to get the tattoo on Saturday, as Woodley cited how "it's the solid thing to do." As of now, Woodley still doesn't know exactly where he will put this tattoo. He explained that he is being a man of his word and says if someone pays him to fight them, then he does love them.
"To me, it's like this ... if a dude want to pay me to whoop his ass -- since he supposedly paid me and promoted the fight -- then I love you!!"
Woodley Is Looking For a Rematch Vs Paul
Even while adding this crazy Jake Paul tattoo to his body, Woodley is still looking to get in the ring again, with the YouTuber-turned-boxer. In this interview, Woodley revealed that that's the plan for him right now, and is a "smart move" for both parties.
"I’m gonna just let the week go through and see what happens. I think the most sensible thing to do is run it back.Various Celebrities Have Been Offering To Get Into The Ring With PaulJake Paul has been a hated man, with many others wanting to step into the ring with him, who aren't actual boxers either. Some of the names who've offered to fight Paul have been rapper The Game, former NBA star, Lamar Odom, and even rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine, who is also one of the most popular celebs who love to troll, on the internet. The Game wanted to fight Jake and his brother Logan, in a street fight, in Los Angeles. He even offered to bring his little brother, to fight the Paul brothers, as well. None of those fights ended up happening, though. At this point, Jake seems ready to fight anyone. He wanted to fight Tommy Fury, but Fury ended up rejecting a $1 million offer, that was on the table. It will definitely be interesting to see if Jake ends up deciding to accept Tyron Woodley's offer, for another fight.
