Former UFC champion Tyron Woodley believes nobody was interested in watching Jake Paul collide with Tommy Fury on December 18 in Tampa, Florida.

Paul and Fury have been feuding for months - with a heated confrontation back in August when they saw action in separate fights in Cleveland.

But, Fury officially withdrew from the contest on December 6th - citing a broken rib and a chest infection.

Woodley was more than happy to jump in as a late replacement.

Three months ago, Paul (4-0, 3 KOs) overcame the toughest test of his career by winning an eight-round split decision over Woodley.

The MMA veteran was furious with the scores and believes he was robbed of a win.

He feels the public had little interest in watching Paul face the younger brother of WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury.

"Nobody wants to see no f------ Tommy Fury fight, come on now. Now his brother is lit. But, he can't ride the coattails of Tyson," Woodley told TMZ Sports.

Woodley believes he's the much stiffer test for Paul, who appears as the headline act of his second Showtime Pay-Per-View event.

"Of course I am [a tougher fight than Fury], sh!t. That's why he took [the Fury] fight instead. He made a double wager and then didn't honor it because sh!t, why would he go back and give me the chance to finish off what I started now that I've been in there with him," Woodley said.

After openly complaining about the scoring in the first encounter, Woodley strongly feels that a knockout is needed when they meeting again this coming Saturday night.

"I just feel like, definitely, I can't leave any doubt," Woodley said.
