      Jake Paul.

      Jake is better than Logan, he will beat Woodley next in his 3rd ever fight.

      Tell me who, in their 3rd ever fight amateur or Pro fought a better opponent than Woodley?

      Anyway point is Jake Paul is probably at least as good as a journeyman at cruiser and even a below average journeyman cruiser would ko haney.

        - -Why would Whiteboy Haney's flapping lips want to be KOed by a kid weighing 50 lbs more than him when he has the rest of his dubious career in front of him for now?

        Who'd buy it other than Paul fans?

          Woodley is his 4th opponent not 3rd, but I'd suggest most people who fought a boxer not a retired MMA guy for a start.

          Not really slamming Paul, but lets not start comparing him to actual real boxers. He's been fighting for 3 years, Joshua and Wilder were national champions around 3 years in.

            Wilder fought a guy who is 11-31-1 in his 4th pro fight after having an Olympic amateur career.

            I guarantee you Woodley is a more difficult opponent than that guy who was some pie and chips eater from down the pub who trains after a long days work washing cars.

            Joshua fought Dorian Darch who I suppose you can argue is a tougher fight than Woodley but again Joshua had years of an amateur career.

              Thats the thing, no one asked Paul to have no amateur fights and one pro fight a year and headline cards, thats his choice, hes making lots of money of it, fair enough.

              Its when people start comparing him to real boxers it all falls apart.

              Jake Paul is like the special Olympics of boxing, "oh look how good he is doing with all his handicaps".

                Still too early to give Jake this much credit. He hasn't beaten Woodley yet, and even assuming he does, he hasn't fought anyone decent enough to assess whether he could really take a championship level lightweight in his prime. Woodley's another cherrypicked opponent with no boxing credentials outside of having explosive knockout power as an MMA fighter. What Jake and his team like about this fight is that Woodley has looked shot mentally in his losing streak. Prone to be gunshy, throws one shot at a time, makes no adjustments, and questionable chin. Woodley is pretty heavy, but Jake is still the naturally bigger guy as usual.

                Gotta find out what he's like at least 4-5 rounds into a competitive fight. If he doesn't have the stamina of a decent pro, these little guys would just wait him out, box, and light him up in the 2nd half of fights and easily win on points if not stop him.
