“I believe he will start slowly, trying to feel me and drag me into the final rounds. (…) I think we're going to see a less aggressive guy, who tries to find my mistakes. He thinks this will help him, because of his experience or (physical) conditioning,” said the youtuber.

For Paul, sharing the ring against an MMA icon won't be a problem, quite the opposite. Undefeated in boxing, Jake guarantees that he will be successful again and will defeat another former mixed martial arts champion.

"I am a killer'. I'm going to hunt him down and get him out, regardless of if he comes up. If he comes, he will advance on attacks. If I walk backwards, I'll get to him. I can act both ways,” he said.

In April, Jake shocked some martial arts fans by defeating former Bellator and ONE Championship champion, Ben Askren. At the time, the youtuber he needed less than a round to achieve a brutal knockout against the MMA veteran. The athlete, therefore, believes that he can be successful again this Sunday.

“I believe in my ability, techniques and my natural talents. Either you are born with speed and knockout power, or you are not. Interestingly, I have. So no matter what happens, no matter how good Tyron is, on August 29th, I'm going to go out there and get the win.”

Former UFC welterweight champion (up to 77kg), Woodley will have his first fight since being released by the organization. In boxing, the veteran will try to erase his recent record in mixed martial arts, where he hasn't won in four commitments.
