"It was a tougher fight than I expected": Jake Paul defeats Tyron Woodley by split decision
On Sunday night, Paul, 24 beat former UFC champion Tyron Woodley, 39, in what was widely viewed as his toughest challenge yet.
The judges scored the eight-round fight 77-75 and 78-74 in favor of Paul, 77-75 in favor of Woodley.
In the fourth round, Woodley clobbered Paul and the ropes appeared to keep Paul on his feet. Paul looked wobbly, but he survived the moment. Throwing and landing more punches, prevailed in front of an announced sellout crowd of 16,000.
"...he’s a tough opponent. ... He put up a good fight. He’s a good boxer," Paul said on the Showtime broadcast after the fight. Woodley said he thought he won the fight but called Paul “a great opponent.’’
