Jake Paul vs. Tyron Woodley Card Predictions

[HewJohnson]

Woodley should’ve laid him out.

Jake Paul is a POS white privilege b!tch and isn’t a boxer.

I had to learn it the hard way too. The only time I bet is when it's boxers who are under the radar.

This is not sarcastic at all, but thank you for the advice, I’m definitely going to keep that in mind for the future. Will definitely factor those in more heavily the next time I bet on boxing.

I should of listened to most of the UFC fighters who said Woodley was going to lose.

Woodley has always been known for his gun-shy hands, I figured in a sport where you can only use your hands he wouldn’t still wait all round to find his “perfect” shot.

After watching Woodley box, I’m convinced MMA fighters will never be able to box on the same level as a person that trains exclusively boxing. Silva beat Chavez (which is the money I won to bet on this) but even Silva was have issues with reverting back to old MMA habits. Woodley couldn’t stop stalling in his grapples (MMA habit), and also was boxing with MMA-style high guard which is more similar to a Muay Thai fighter then a boxing guard. Woodley never really ever put much weight down on his leading leg too, to generate power because that’s what you’re taught for MMA so you don’t eat calf kicks. Either way I’m really disappointed as a fan because this was one of my favourite fighters last chance at something else and he botched it by living up to his reputation of not letting his hands go.

The commentators kept mentioning that these judges were novices lol

Yeah. I think there are MMA fighters that can do well. When Conner fought Mayweather, he actually did a really good job. He had Mayweather panicking the first part of the fight. But he was fighting Mayweather, so it could only end one way.

It looks as if Woodley might have another shot. But he needs to fight like a boxer. I don't know what training he had. I know once you learn how to fight a certain way, it's hard as hell to retrain yourself because of muscle memory. It's REALLY hard. I know. But it can be done. It just takes time. So maybe he really focus on his fighting technique the next time around and just swallow his ego and learn the fundamentals, proper stance, proper punch technique, all of it.

I actually thought that if Woodley just spent the summer watching boxing matches, he'd be able to have Ah Ha moments because he's a natural fighter. He could just really learn a lot that way, but I don't think he's actually a fan of the sport because he fought as if he just started trying to learn how to box last month. I thought the fight would be rigged, but it seemed legit.

Teddy Atlas did a cool prediction video. He explains it really well and why he picked Jake Paul to win.
