Tyron Woodley: It’s ‘F–king a Joke’ to Say I Only Won 2 Rounds in Jake Paul Fight
Tyron Woodley isn’t happy with how his fight was scored against Jake Paul in his split-decision loss.
Woodley told The MMA Hour’s Ariel Helwani it was ridiculous that judge Dana DePaolo scored the fight 79-74 in favor of Paul and couldn’t believe that he wasn’t given points for a knockdown in the fourth round when Paul fell over but was held up by the ropes
Those who forked over $59.99 to watch the Paul-Woodley fight
and now have buyer’s remorse should ask themselves something:
What did you expect?
Paul, who won a split decision, had three fights going into Sunday night. The YouTuber is a good, strong athlete but he’s in the early stages of his development, as we saw against Woodley. His knockouts in Fights 1-3 drew attention away from the fact he has rudimentary skills. And Woodley, making his boxing debut, is a 39-year-old former UFC champ who was never much of a striker in his MMA heyday.
So it should’ve been no surprise that Paul and Woodley looked like rank amateurs. That’s what they are.
As someone close to me said afterward, “It’s like going to a lousy restaurant and expecting great food.”
The only thing that could’ve saved this fight was a spectacular knockout or a wild brawl, which those watching presumably expected. Many of them wanted to see the brash Paul get his fourth stoppage in four fights or get knocked out himself.
It didn’t happen, which is part of boxing. Both fighters landed some hard shots but none that hurt the other significantly. And they fought cautiously, which precluded the possibility of an entertaining war.
Thus, we were left with a dud.
I don’t blame either guy. Paul fought an intelligent fight and won a decision, which he deserved. He outworked Woodley, who had his moments but didn’t let his hands go enough to complain about the decision.
And from a business standpoint, they are both geniuses. They will have walked away from the fight with seven-figure paydays when all is said and done, which is the result of that $59.99 you sacrificed.
Maybe next time you’ll have a better idea of what you’re getting for your hard-earned cash.
“I feel like whoever said I only won two rounds…I’ll beat your ass, because clearly that’s f–king a joke,” Woodley said. “And I feel like even though they didn’t deem it a knockdown, I still feel that round was a 10-8 round. I’m talking about Round 4. He was just getting hit with every power shot possible.”
As for whether Woodley will get a rematch to prove he’s the better fighter, Paul said after the fight that if Woodley got an “I love Jake Paul” tattoo, they could run it back.
