Tyron Woodley Makes Bold Prediction For Jake Paul Bout And Talks Up Future Fight With Logan Paul

Tyron Woodley has made a bold prediction for his upcoming fight with Jake Paul as he eyes a future showdown with Logan Paul.

Woodley makes his professional boxing debut against budding star Jake Paul, who is coming off a one-round destruction of Ben Askren.

The YouTuber-turned-boxer called out a host of UFC stars before landing a fight against the former UFC welterweight champion on August 28.

And Woodley is entering the clash extremely confident, predicting a third-round victory - and even has a message for his opponent's older brother Logan.

Asked for his prediction, he told Michael Bisping via MMA Fighting: "I think three.

"First round sounds cocky, sounds dope, but I just know that if I'm fighting Tyron Woodley, everyone is going to tell him to cover up, weather the storm, clinch him, grab him, keep him away from you, stay at distance, watch out for the right hand.

"I've got to set a couple traps so I may need a round or two to set some traps, see what he responds to and I think third round I should be able to clean up the deal."

'The Chosen One' added: "At the end of the day, he's gonna get beat up, he's gonna get knocked out.

"Hopefully it's not too bad because what's happening is, his people are gassing him up that he can win. He accepted this fight and I was very surprised he accepted this fight.

"They're gassing him up and they're giving him that You've got the power. He's old. He ain't won a fight a million years. You the younger, more hungry, he's taking you lightly, you can beat him!'

"They're lying to this kid and they're gonna get him f**ked up. So what's gonna happen is, I'm gonna beat him, I'm gonna knock him out, and hopefully it's not too bad where he doesn't want to do it again because I want to take the money again. I want to rob the bank twice. So that's the plan."

While Woodley doesn't have any beef with Logan, he isn't ruling out a future match-up with the 'Maverick'.

The 39-year-old said: "I really don't have smoke with his brother Logan but sh*t, after he sees what I do to his brother he might want to get the hands too."
