Jake Paul trolls ‘bitch’ Tommy Fury with customised Union Jack walkout attire and blasts rival after Tyron Woodley KO
by Aurelia Butler 19 December 2021, 05:35
JAKE PAUL called Tommy Fury a ‘bitch’ after knocking out Tyron Woodley – but started the trolling on the way to the ring. Fury was due to face Paul in a celebrity grudge match in Florida, until he pulled out with a broken rib and chest infection.

Ex-UFC champion Woodley, beaten on points by the YouTuber in August, stepped in with less than two weeks notice as a replacement.
Paul was in no mood to let Fury off the hook and even on his ringwalk he wore a Union Jack outfit.
On the British flag, it read: “Hey Tommy, wish you could’ve been here but watching from a TV is cool too.”
Paul also walked out to Village People’s 1978 classic YMCA, and the lyrics are almost certain to have been another swipe at Fury.
The song starts with: “Young man, there’s no need to feel down. I said, young man, pick yourself off the ground.”
Paul, 24, and Woodley, 39, were six rounds into their rematch and facing boos from the crowd as it failed to catch fire.

But suddenly, a right hook from Paul landed right on the button and closed the show in dramatic fashion.
Woodley was left out for the count, face down on the floor, and lost to the American celebrity for a second time.
Paul was quick to praise his rival after the win and yet again slammed Fury, 22, for his withdrawal.
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 bitch.
“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.”

Woodley, 39, was left face down on the canvas and for the second time beaten by Paul.
The former UFC welterweight, who lost to the American social media star in August, only took the rematch on two week’s notice.
He filled in for Tommy Fury, 22, who pulled out of facing Paul, 24, with a broken rib and chest infection.

The fight got off to a cagey start with Woodley the aggressor, coming forward but not throwing, while Paul appeared hesitant on the retreat.
In round two Paul did land an overhand right – a sign of things to come – but still the action was spoiled by holding from each side.
In round three, a clash of heads caused the former vlogger to sustain a nasty cut, and in turn inspired urgency in Woodley.
But when the bout got into the midway mark, the crowd began to grow restless with the grabbing and clinching, as boos filled the arena.
Woodley did land a string of short right hands but failed to follow up.

Soon enough though, Woodley would find himself face down and out for the count following a monstrous right hand.
Paul set the finishing shot up with a fake to the body and came around the side with a right hook.
It landed bang on the button and put Woodley away, ending the rematch in devastating fashion.
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*** coming. He was catching, catching. Come around. Good morning.”

Amanda Serrano sets up ‘biggest fight in women’s boxing history’ with Katie Taylor by winning on Jake Paul’s undercard
by Aurelia Butler 19 December 2021, 03:49
AMANDA SERRANO set up the ‘biggest fight in women’s boxing history’ with Katie Taylor by battering Miriam Gutierrez. The sensational, seven-division world champion dominated Spaniard Gutierrez over ten rounds.

Serrano’s win, which served as co-headliner for Jake Paul’s rematch with Tyron Woodley, means a blockbuster with Ireland’s Taylor is almost guaranteed.
She said: “MVP baby, I hope I made you guys proud. Jake Paul, Nakisa, and everybody in the crowd who came out to see.
“Everybody who purchased the pay-per-view, thank you and this is for women’s boxing, I’m doing it for all of us, baby.”
Taylor, undisputed at lightweight, kept her end of the bargain with a win over Firuza Sharipova in Liverpool.
A week later and Serrano followed suit, meaning the two boxing superstars are on course for a historic clash.
Taylor, 35, in 2019 beat Serrano’s sister Cindy, 39, and was last year in talks to face Amanda, 33.

BETTING SPECIAL – GET JAKE PAUL AT 25/1 OR TYRON WOODLEY AT 50/1
But amid the coronavirus pandemic, the super-fight broke down and on the second attempt, a deal could not be agreed.
Now, Serrano is managed by YouTube star-turned boxer Paul, 24, and his Most Valuable Promotions stable alongside advisor Nakisa Bidarian.
Olympic 2012 gold medalist Taylor admitted she had no problem with the social media sensation leading negotiations for the potentially record-breaking bout.
She told The MMA Hour this week: “Obviously just there’s been so much controversy and criticism over Jake Paul being involved in boxing and getting these fights going.
“If he’s the person to make the fight happen between me and Amanda Serrano, I’m not complaining at all about him being involved in boxing.
“He’s obviously pretty much promoting Amanda Serrano now, and so he’s obviously going to play a big part in getting this fight over the line as well.
“So yeah, like I said, I have no problems with him being involved in boxing if it means that he’s going to make the biggest fight in women’s boxing history happen.”
Taylor added: “It’s probably the biggest fight in women’s boxing history, and what an amazing privilege and honour to be in this position.” More

Ex-NBA star Deron Williams beats NFL legend Frank Gore in wild boxing exhibition on Jake Paul vs Tyron Woodley undercard
by Aurelia Butler 19 December 2021, 02:57
DERON WILLIAMS beat NFL legend Frank Gore in a wild and reckless boxing exhibition on Jake Paul’s undercard. The ex-NBA star got the points verdict after four painfully scrappy rounds in Florida.

At one point, in round two, Williams landed a right hand and then pushed Gore into the ropes and almost out of the ring.
But Gore got his own back and shoved the basketballer to the floor just moments later.
Williams scored the only knockdown, with a standing count, in round three after the ropes kept Gore up.
Both men swung haymakers right until the end and looked absolutely knackered by the end of it.
Williams, 37, has owned the Fortis MMA gym in Dallas since 2015 and has been training there ever since.

But both found out it is completely different story under the lights doing it for real.
Thankfully, despite winning Williams admitted his boxing foray will be over before it really got started.
He said: “I’m going to sit my old, dumbass down somewhere and let these professionals do their s***.
“Honestly, I probably looked terrible out there. I feel like my last five sparring sessions were on point.
“My head wasn’t coming up, soon as you get out here and start getting touched it’s all different, all your training goes out of the window.
“It was fun, I’m glad I got the chance to get out here and do it but like I thought coming into this, I’m one and done.”

Jake Paul rivals Nate Diaz and Jorge Masvidal sit front row at YouTuber’s rematch with ex-UFC champ Tyron Woodley
by Aurelia Butler 19 December 2021, 01:42
NATE DIAZ and Jorge Masvidal were among the stars in attendance for Jake Paul’s rematch with Tyron Woodley. On the undercard in Florida, Diaz’s training partner Chris Avila beat Anthony Taylor, a former sparring partner of Paul’s.

It meant the UFC veteran was ringside to support Avila, who went on to win a points decision over eight rounds.
Soon after, Masvidal, 37, who beat Diaz, 36, in 2019, took his seat in the front row.
He is a long-time American Top Team training partner and friend of Woodley’s and was there to support the former UFC champion.
But Masvidal has also feuded with Paul in recent months, leaving both open to a future boxing match down the line.
Before the YouTuber knocked out Ben Askren in April, the two trained together and even posed for pictures.
But when Paul signed to face Woodley in his next fight, it saw his relationship with Masvidal turn sour.

The pair then began to publicly trash talk, leaving the door open to a grudge match down the line.
In Paul’s first three fights, he beat YouTuber ‘AnEsonGib’, ex-NBA player Nate Robinson, 37, and retired UFC welterweight Askren, also 37.
But he then followed it up with an eight-round points win over Woodley, 39, in August.
Paul, 24, was set to fight Tommy Fury, 22, afterwards, until the British former reality TV star pulled out with a broken rib and chest infection.
Woodley then signed as a late replacement, setting up the anticipated rematch in Tampa.

Fury, 33, is renting a sprawling spot in the USA and has extended an invite to his old foe Wilder.
Florida borders Wilder’s home state of Alabama and the Gypsy King hopes the 36-year-old makes the short journey over.
He told the Mail: “It’s a huge place with an enormous swimming pool.
“Room for all and I’ve told Deontay we’re right handy for Disney World.”
The pair contested an epic trilogy bout – culminating in Fury’s second victory in October.
The fights were bitterly contested with many vicious words exchanged but the fighters have put their beef behind them since.

Tyson would need to have a big house in order to host the Fury and Wilder clans together.
He and wife Paris have six kids while Wilder and fiancee Telli Swift have EIGHT.
Any chat between the two would likely revolve around their three epic fights which Fury reckons may shorten the men’s lives.
The Brit added: “This will take years off our lives. We will feel the effects of this in our later days.”
Wilder recently suggested he may retire soon.
Speaking to Kevin Hart on the Cold As Balls on the Laugh Out Loud Network, Wilder said: “It’s mixed feelings because ultimately I have accomplished all my goals in this sport.
‘SHOULD I JUST RETIRE?’
“I told my daughter when she was one that I’d be a champion and I’d be able to support her beyond her belief.
“I’ve done that. There’s a lot of things that I’ve accomplished that I feel I have to prove to anyone because I’ve already proven (myself).
“Should I push forward? Should I give it a go one more time?
“Or should I just retire and focus on the other things that I already have, other things that I want to get into?”
Wilder knocked Fury down in the first and third fights but he got up to fight on.
But Fury was not concerned by his opponent’s famous punch power.
He added: “I fear only God.
“Never worried about fighting any man. And I always expect every heavyweight to carry a massive punch.
“So no. But I was aware that here was a champion with the special capacity to switch off any human with just one hit.
“Some boxers have fantastic chins.
“But my powers of recovery are unique. Deontay’s not the first to put me down. But like the others he’s found out that I always get up. Always.”

‘F*** retirement’ – Derek Chisora refusing to quit boxing after Joseph Parker rematch loss and eyes summer return
by Aurelia Butler 19 December 2021, 00:53
DEREK CHISORA has defiantly refused to hang up his boxing gloves and roared ‘f*** retirement’ as he already plots his return. Chisora was left raging in May after losing to Joseph Parker by split-decision, in a fight where he scored a knockdown in the opening ten seconds.

But in the rematch back in Manchester, the British veteran could have no such arguments following a one-sided defeat.
Chisora was floored three times and looked on the brink of a brutal stoppage on several occasions.
But the resilient Londoner came back with enough to convince his corner and referee Howard Foster to let the action continue.
It resulted in a 12th career loss for Chisora, who Parker said should now consider retirement.
But the man himself has other ideas, so much so that he is planning to return in around six months time.
Chisora tweeted: “F*** retirement. I’ll be back in the summer bitch.”

The former world title challenger, 37, kept up his post-fight tradition of sharing a Five Guys burger with his opponent.
It is the second time he has toasted to a cheeseburger with New Zealander Parker, 29, who boxed in the UK for the fifth time.
After the win, he said: “Derek always comes for war, he was one tough guy and never stopped coming forward until the end.
“I felt a lot stronger. It was important to start strong and not be negative from the beginning. You can see there are improvements to be made.
“Derek Chisora is a credit to the sport of boxing. The crowd went mental when he walked out. They just want to support him.”
Despite coming into the fight with 11 losses, Chisora’s unpredictable personality and ruthless aggression makes him a headline act.
But after the loss, Parker admitted he would like to see it be Chisora’s last.
He said: “Personally I’d like to see him walk away. He has given boxing everything, but that’s his decision.”
