BIG NIGHT ON THE CARDS

Showtime Sports president Stephen Espinoza has revealed Paul vs Woodley is currently on course to do ‘slightly below’ the numbers for Floyd Mayweather’s clash with Logan Paul.

He told MMA Junkie: “I think we’ll be pretty close to 15,000 in the arena. That’s probably a few tickets short of a sell-out. Less than 500 tickets, maybe closer at the time.

“The pre-buys are bigger than just about anything we’ve done lately short of Mayweather Paul.

“So it’s tracking within line with, but slightly below, Mayweather-Paul. Now look, I’m not saying it’s gonna hit a million buys. Because you have to take tracking with a large grain of salt.

“It’s a few thousands buys and trying to predict, five, six or seven hundred thousand. But the indicators are very good.”

TALE OF THE TAPE

In case you’re unfamiliar with the pair’s respective boxing records, here is the tale of the tape for Jake Paul vs Tyron Woodley.

Although Woodley has 0 professional boxing matches to his name, he does have a wealth of cage time to his name having had 27 pro MMA fights.

BETTING SPECIAL GET PAUL AT 7/1 OR WOODLEY AT 14/1

TESTING, TESTING 1-2-3

The Ohio State Athletic Commission WILL be drug testing Jake Paul and Tyron Woodley after their fight.

On Saturday, it emerged that the pair wouldn’t be subject to pre and post-fight testing.

The pair will, however, now have to submit samples to the commission after the showdown.

‘PRESSURE’

Former UFC welterweight champ Tyron Woodley hasn’t tasted victory since submitting Darren Till in September 2018.

And former middleweight champion Michael Bisping reckons, The Chosen One – who has lost his last four on the bounce – is under a world of pressure.

‘The Count’ told SunSport: “He does look motivated. But I think that’s because he’s feeling the pressure.

“Of course, he had a great career as champion and in the UFC he was a phenomenal fighter.

“I would assume he’ll be in the Hall-of-Fame one day, but he’s lost his last four.

“I did see some interviews a while ago. He fell into the trap that a lot of fighters do, a lot of athletes do, with overspending money and things like that.

“I’m not sure of his financial situation, I’m sure he’s OK. But this is all he knows.

“And he’s probably training like a madman because he’s feeling the pressure.

FINAL TROLLING

Jake Paul somewhat bizarrely kept making reference to Tyron Woodley’s backside during one of his final pre-fight interviews.

And he did so again not long after Saturday’s ceremonial weigh-ins.

SNEAK PEEK

Take an inside look at the 20,000 capacity Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse, which will be full to the brim when Paul and Woodley make their respective walks to the ring in a few hours’ time.

INFLUENCER VS MMA

Good evening, folks. I’m Chisanga Malata and I’ll be keeping you up to date with all the ongoings from the Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse in Cleveland, Ohio – the venue for Jake Paul’s clash with former UFC Tyron Woodley.

Not long now until we find out if Paul can actually hang with elite combatants.

And I have to admit, I’m quite excited to see if he can.

RUNNING ORDER 📋

Here’s how the night will pan out from bottom to top, with the first fight getting underway at 12.30am UK time on BT Sport Box Office.

PAUL ON MASIVDAL

Here’s what Jake Paul thinks about Jorge Masvidal’s assertion that Tyron Woodley should beat him easily.

“I wasn’t surprised by Masvidal,” Paul said.

“He has the same manager as [Tyron Woodley] and the guy is kind of an airhead, let’s be honest, Masvidal is not smart.

“Does anybody here listen to a Jorge Masvidal interview and go ‘wow, this guy is an intellectual and he’s a smart guy. The way he talks, he’s very well spoken’ – I don’t think anybody says that.

“He’s like a street fighter gangster who got knocked the f*** out in his last fight. So maybe he’s losing a couple of brain cells.

“If I’m your friend, I’m your friend. If he wants to switch up, hoes will be hoes.”

DRUG-TESTING?

Apparently not on fight night anyway, despite Jake Paul’s claims there would be.

WHITE RESPONDS

Dana White has responded to a call-out for a fight from Jake Paul.

“It actually makes sense,” White said.

“I’m 52-years-old. I’m in the age bracket of guys he fights, so yeah, I could see him wanting to fight me. It’s all he fights are 50-year-olds.

“Let me tell you what, get in line. There are plenty of people who would like to assault me.

“Get in line. It’s a long f***ing line, buddy. You’re going to be waiting for a while.

“No, it doesn’t bother me. This is the business we’re in. I say it all the time about the fighters, too.

“We are not in the nice guy business. This is a very mean business. I say many mean things about people, too. It’s just part of this game. It’s all good.”

SOME DIFFERENCE!

Fair to say Jake Paul is up against someone with a much stricter diet in Tyron Woodley tonight…

TYRON WOODLEY’S LAST THREE 🤕

Although they’re under completely different circumstances, Woodley’s last three fights haven’t gone as well as Paul’s have.

• Woodley LOST to Vicente Luque via 1st round SUB
• Woodley LOST to Colby Covington via 5th round retirement
• Woodley LOST to Gilbert Burns via UD5

JAKE PAUL’S LAST 3 ⚡️

It’s fair to say Jake Paul hasn’t needed to long in the ring to get the job done thus far in his career…

• Paul def. Ben Askren via 1st round KO – April 2021
• Paul def. Nate Robinson via 1st round KO – November 2020
• Paul def. AnEsonGib via 1st round KO – January 2020

WHO YOU PICKING? 🤔

FURY VS TAYLOR – TALE OF THE TAPE

Here’s how these two stack up against each other ahead of tonight.

Look who T-Wood got help from for his fight with Jake Paul… 👀

TAYLOR TALKS 🗣

Here’s what Anthony Taylor thinks of his clash with Tommy Fury tonight.

“I can get in close with him, I can out-box him on the outside. He is tailor-made for me. He is [slow] like a mummy,” he explained.

“I’ve been boxing since I was 18 but fell in love with MMA at 26. I don’t have amateur experience but I have sparred many pro boxers.

“People just think ‘MMA fighter’. I am a boxer-wrestler. When I train for a fight, I don’t spar amateurs, I go to pro boxing gyms and spar taller guys.”

BIG DOGS

Here’s how Dubois and Cusumano looked weighing in yesterday in Cleveland.

AMERICAN DEBUT

Elsewhere on tonight’s card, Daniel Dubois is in action on his debut in the USA under new trainer Shane McGuigan.

The Brit heavyweight, who lost to Joe Joyce last year, has since rebounded with a win over Bogdan Dinu.

And tonight he’ll take on Joe Cusumano in another stay-busy fight as he looks to become mandatory to Anthony Joshua’s WBA world title.

HOMETOWN GLORY

Jake Paul has had one hell of a career, mostly as a content creator but now he’s looking to make history as a boxer.

And tonight he returns to his hometown of Cleveland, Ohio.

The Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse will play host and there could be up to 20,000 spectators in attendance at the fight.

NO CAP 🧢

Jake Paul tried to take Tyron Woodley’s cap at the weigh-in yesterday. And it didn’t work.

He did enjoy some chicken, though.
