TYRON WOODLEY has threatened to end Jake Paul’s fledgling boxing career and warned he will ‘get hurt in a way you’d never imagine’.
Paul faces the ex-UFC champion on Sunday in his fourth and most challenging fight so far.
But Woodley has predicted it could even be the YouTuber’s last, as he sent out a fierce warning ahead of what will be his boxing debut.
He told MMAFighting: “I’m just glad to be a part of it, but I’m not only here to participate.
“I’m here to f***ing take over. And you’re going to see Jake Paul get hurt in a way you’d never imagine. He may not want to do this again after this.”
Paul, 24, is 3-0 in his career, all by knockout, with wins over online rival ‘AnEsonGib, ex-NBA star Nate Robinson, 37, and retired UFC fighter Ben Askren, 37.
Woodley, 39, meanwhile formerly held the UFC welterweight title from 2016-2018 with four defences.
But he has lost his last four fights, without a win in three years and left the UFC this year.
Since signing to face Paul, Woodley, 39, has spent time training under boxing legend Floyd Mayweather, 44, and his coach Gerald Tucker.
He has documented this in a YouTube series called ‘Champ Camp’ – but revealed he has purposely held back footage.
And Woodley said fans will be able to see just how hard he has been preparing for the bout with new video due to be released.
He said: “I’m smart too. He’s not the only smart one.
“When you see [my video blog] ‘Champ Camp’ drop Saturday, when it’s too late after the weigh-ins, you’re going to see what I’ve really been doing.
“What you guys have seeing has been sprinkles, it’s been salt baes.
“You’re going to see Jake Paul get hurt in a way you’d never imagine. He may not want to do this again after this.

“When you see the destruction and the f***ing training and the mentality and the coaching and the running every single day, all different terrains, hills, speeds, adjustments, altitudes, it’s going to be too late for him to back out of this fight.
“And that’s why in the beginning I said I wanted a ‘no bitch out’ clause.
“Because I knew if he saw how hard I really punch, and how great my mind really is for this sport — any combat sport — my IQ and just the coaches, [Paul might back out].”
Woodley has maintained he feared Paul would fail to fight him, but now insisted there is no way out.
He explained: “It’s too late. He’s going to be the biggest bitch in the industry of female dogs if he backs out of this fight now.
“So now I can talk for real. Now I can say what we really were doing. Now I can show you guys.
WOODLEY’S WARNING
“Come Saturday, if you guys are not subscribed to me on YouTube, subscribe. Saturday, I’m breaking the internet.
“I promise you, it’s going to be internet breaking. This entire camp has been a movie.
“If he tried to pull a Covid-19 [and pull out now], I’m coming to his hotel and I’m sticking a Q-tip in his nose and I’m going to do it for seven tests.
“I want to see some x-rays. I want to see some ultrasound. I want the doctor to produce the [positive test] to me personally.
“Because he doesn’t really understand that the force I punch with and the certainty of me landing and me seeing it before it happens.
“It’s not something that a sparring partner in Puerto Rico can display and mimic and perpetrate.”
