Former five time UFC world champion Tyron Woodley has promised to blast out Youtube star Jake Paul (3-0, 3 KOs) when they collide a boxing match in August, on Showtime Pay-Per-View.
Woodley, who recently became a free agent, will be making his pro boxing debut.
He's being viewed as the toughest test to date for Paul, who made his pro debut in early 2020.
The 24-year-old Paul was in action in April, when he stopped MMA veteran Ben Askren in one round. Askren is close friends with Woodley.
"[This is the] easiest fight of my career and biggest purse of my career all in one night," Woodley told ESPN.
"Basically, they brought me in to take out the trash, I can't wait to shut this bitch up.
"This is getting done for the culture, the whole MMA community and boxing community, to rid this guy from combat sports."
In the his first three fights as a pro, Paul blasted out Askren, NBA star Nate Robinson, and Youtuber AnEsonGib.
In the last few months, Paul has traded heated words with several MMA fighters - including Woodley, who promises to end the social media star's boxing run.
"You will visualize Jake Paul getting his head knocked smooth off his neck," Woodley said on IG Live.
"Sometimes you talk yourself into a situation that you can’t back yourself out of ... my mom used to say, ‘Your mouth wrote a check that your ass can’t cash.’ That’s exactly what happened."
"Now, you got a motherf----- that’s going to fight you like you ain’t never been fought before. Ain’t no sparring you can do to motherf------ get ready for it.
"Ain’t no meditation. Ain’t no kumbaya. Ain’t no mama say, mama sa mama coosa. Ain’t sh-t you can do. You getting your ass beat. I’m pumped up about it."
