LOGAN REACTS

More below:
‘As real as it gets’
Jake Paul couldn’t contain his happiness after beating Tyron Woodley in the sixth round

‘Gone viral’
Jake Paul insists he’s done more than enough to be considered a legitimate boxer, despite the fact he’s yet to face a real pugilist.
Paul said: “I’ve done more than enough. For massive fights in 13 months. No one in the history of boxing has done what I’ve done at this age.
“Massive pay-per-views, knocked out every single person that I’ve ever fought. The only person that’s as active as me doing as big pay-per-views as Canelo.
“Like I said, I’ve knocked out everyone I’ve fought, turned them into memes. That s***s gone viral all over the internet”
Paul on injury
Jake Paul opened up on an injury he sustained after a clash of heads in round three.
Paul said: “It was a tough fight. The blood was getting in my eye from when he elbowed me.
“He was throwing me on the ground – dirty headbutt. But it is what it is. I got the job done and I knew it would happen like that.
“I was setting it up the whole fight. He didn’t see that s**t coming. He was catching, catching. Come around. Good morning”

Paul reacts on social media
Jake Paul reacted to his stunning KO of Tyron Woodley with a short and concise tweet, which quickly started doing the rounds.
Along with a collection of photos of the KO, The Problem Child wrote: ‘BING BONG.”
Face plant
In 27 professional mixed martial arts fights, Tyron Woodley has never been flatlined in the manner in which Jake Paul shut off his lights.
Former Strikeforce welterweight champ Nate Marquardt stopped him in 2012, but that stoppage was an accumulation of strikes.
This one-hitter-quitter from Paul, however, was something completely different.
Cut up – Warning graphic image below
Jake Paul suffered a nasty, nasty cut on his head during his rematch with Tyron Woodley.
An accidental elbow from The Chosen One as he attempted to block a left hook opened Paul up in the second round.
Brother Logan inspected the cut after the fight and told his sibling he was ‘fine’.
But judging from the video, his forehead is most definitely ‘not fine’.
FIRED UP
Jake Paul was on cloud nine after sensationally stopping former UFC welterweight champ Tyron Woodley.
But he was quick to give the fallen Chosen One respect for his efforts.
He said: “This guy is a legend. Don’t take anything away from his career as a UFC champion and respect him for taking the fight on two weeks’ notice because Tommy Fury is a b***h.
“He backed out of the fight. This a real fighter, a real dog and a warrior. This guy is a tough fighter right there – legend.”
He added: “It was a tough fight. The blood was getting in my eye from when he elbowed me.
“He was throwing me on the ground – dirty headbutt. But it is what it is. I got the job done and I knew it would happen like that.
“I was setting it up the whole fight. He didn’t see that s**t coming. He was catching, catching. Come around. Good morning.”
