TYRON WOODLEY has branded Jake Paul a ‘dummy’ as he responded to the fighter’s latest jabs.
The controversial YouTuber ignited their feud on Father’s Day last week.
Problem Child had uploaded pictures of Conor McGregor, Kamaru Usman, Daniel Cormier, Ben Askren and Woodley and referred to them all as his ‘sons’.
Paul’s post read: “As a father myself, today means a lot to me.
“Even though they’ve all lost, my sons all have made me so proud.”
But that remark did not go down well with his upcoming opponent Woodley.
And the UFC star pointed out on Twitter that Paul had actually shared a snap of him from UFC 228 when Woodley was awarded a black belt after making Darren Till submit.
He wrote: “Dummy that’s a pic of me getting a black belt after i smashed someone for a ufc one.
“But you wouldn’t know nothing about getting strapped up. only st*** **s.”
Paul will fight Woodley next in the boxing ring, and has angled for fights against Usman, McGregor and Cormier recently.
Paul has vowed to ‘eat up’ Woodley in two rounds as he claimed the UFC legend is ‘coming in a wounded soldier’.
The YouTube sensation faces Woodley in his fourth professional fight on August 28.
Paul, 24, is currently 3-0 as a pro, all by knockout, but has so far only beaten online rival ‘AnEsonGib’, ex-NBA star Nate Robinson, 36, and retired UFC grappler Ben Askren, 36.
Woodley, 39, is a former UFC champion and made four defences of his belt from 2016-2018.
But after losing the title to Kamaru Usman, 34, in 2019, he has been beaten in his last four and departed the UFC.
