Jake Paul has booked himself another fight, and it is a serious one this time.

Youtuber turned boxer, Jake of the Paul brothers is set to fight ex UFC fighter Tyrone Woodley before the end of the year.

Several boxing fans around the world have not held back in expressing their dislike for how the Paul brothers seem to be turning boxing into a joke. The brothers, however, keep shaking up the boxing world as they prove themselves to be serious contenders with each fight.

Fans will remember Jake disgraced Nate Robinson in a fight that was initially thought to be inconsequential. He didn’t stop there though, he soon fought and defeated former UFC star Ben Askren. His critics pointed out that Askren was an unworthy opponent as he had been retired for a while.

Jake promised that his next fight will be against a strong opponent whose worthiness will be undeniable, and it appears he has found a match.

According to Mike Coppinger: “Jake Paul and former UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley have agreed to a deal for a boxing match. Jake recently signed a multi-fight deal with Showtime. Friday face-off in Miami planned to promote the event. Paul coming off first-round KO of Ben Askren”

The customary trash talks have already begun, with Tyrone saying the world will rejoice when he walks away after knocking Jake out. Time will tell if that will be the case, or if Jake who has been training vigorously will once again silence his doubters.
