      by

      Jake Paul reckons he is closer to become a billionaire following his clash with Tyron Woodley
      The social media star took to Instagram to pat himself on the back for boosting his bank balance following his victory.
      In an Instagram story video to his 17million followers on the platform, Paul captioned a video: “When you get 10 per cent closer to becoming a billionaire.”
      The clash was the second-biggest selling pay-per-view of the year behind his brother Logan’s duel with Floyd Mayweather,
      However, despite claims of a $100m payday reports suggest Paul could pull in far less than a nine-figure amount. 
      Sportingfree.com reckons the Former YouTuber could earn around £1.4m ($2m) from the clash including its pay-per-view income. 
      The boxing-obsessed social media star has reportedly invested in a sports industry venture capital business which could be the basis for his earnings boast.

      And Paul has been lobbying for higher earnings for boxers during his stint in the sport.
      The YouTuber told Showtime Sports: “A lot of young fighters get sucked into long fight contracts by promoters and then they become a star and the promoters take all their money.
      “I want to help fix that problem. I think we need to attack it in multiple ways.
      “First, we need the sports to become more popular. More fans, more audience which will naturally put more revenue across the board. I think also voicing it.”
      Easiest sparring sessionMichael Bisping on fighting Jake Paul
      Paul, 24, who has reinvented himself as a prizefighter, has been challenged to a future professional boxing bout by UFC hero Michael Bisping. 
      And the MMA legend reckons taking on the popular YouTube star in the ring would be the ‘easiest sparring session’.
      Paul landed a three-punch combination on Woodley in the opening round of the bout in his US hometown of Cleveland, Ohio. 
      And the YouTuber was on the receiving end of some powerful right-hand jabs from his ex-UFC welterweight opponent in the third round
      This followed a testing second round which saw the social media star at times on the back foot. 
      Paul then took the fight to Woodley landing a right uppercut before the UFC specialist connected with a big right hand. 

      And that punishing blow saw the vlogger stagger into ropes  
      Both fighters appeared to be tiring by the sixth round with Paul ending the round with a hand over the top. 
      And following the announcement of a split decision the YouTuber was declared the winner picking up his fourth pro boxing victory to date.

      Boxer, 18, in critical condition after being knocked out cold and carried away on stretcher in ‘very rare’ incident

      by

      A BOXER is in critical but stable condition after she was knocked out by her opponent during an event in Montreal on Saturday evening.Jeanette Zacarias Zapata, 18, was stopped by Marie-Pier Houle before collapsing to the floor moments later and being hospitalised.
      Zapata was hit several times towards the end of the fourth round
      The teenager was standing when the referee called time on the fight
      But Zapata collapsed seconds later and is now in a critical condition
      Zapata was taking part in her sixth professional bout at the GYM Gala Boxing event in Canada.
      The teenager was hit several times by Canadian boxer Houle towards the end of the fourth round and was hanging on to the ropes as the bell rang.
      The referee immediately went over to Zapata to check on her condition and ended the fight seconds later – initially as a precautionary measure.
      Although it was clear the Mexican star couldn’t continue, she was still on her feet at this stage as Houle started celebrating her TKO victory.
      But just moments later, Zapata began having convulsions before her trainer Jovanni Martinez laid her down on the ring.
      She was hospitalised and placed in a medically induced coma, with doctors describing her condition as critical but stable.

      Event organiser Yvon Michel told Global News: “She didn’t regain consciousness.
      “She was sedated in order to rest her body and her brain.
      “The doctors didn’t give her much of a chance [to get out] initially, but they find her situation has improved a lot.
      “The next two to five days will be critical and she will be kept sedated for that period.
      I only realised the magnitude of the situation after seeing her. I wish it had happened to me instead of Jeanette; I am frustrated.Jovanni Martinez
      “The next six weeks will then be critical in determining if there is damage and how much damage it has.”
      Opponent Houle added: “This is not the thing you want to see.
      “I was definitely going for the knockout, but I would have preferred her to come out on her feet, not lying on a stretcher.
      “We’re keeping our fingers crossed that everything goes well.”

      Fury said: “Jake saw me ringside, I was leaning over the ropes waiting to get in. Logan said not now. They ain’t fighters.
      “I was ready to throw hands there and then. This guy [Jake] doesn’t understand – me and my team will go now, we’ll get stuck in so he can count his blessings.
      “Forty of his security team broke it up because the man can’t fight. Imagine him on the street… please. He wouldn’t last two seconds.
      “If he had no security team there with him, he would have walked straight past me.
      “There was a moment in that corridor where everything was going off between the security, my team, his team and it was just me and him.
      “I looked dead into his soul. When the cameras are not around, he doesn’t want to know.
      “Let’s be honest, if he really wanted to fight me, I’d have been in that ring there at the end through the ropes, let’s go, there’s no return.
      “But he didn’t want that and the reason why he didn’t want me in the ring is because if I was getting in there, he wouldn’t be able to go back on it.”
      PAUL-ING HIS LEG
      Jake Paul discussed his backstage altercation with Tommy Fury after his victory over Tyron Woodley.
      Paul said:”Look, the guy really had nothing to say, he had a mediocre performance against my sparring partner.
      “All credit to Anthony Taylor he’s a tough guy but Tommy Fury is supposed to be this tough, big bad guy, legendary bloodline.
      “I got into his face and let him talk. I don’t have anything to say to him – at the end of the day I hired him to be here, I gave him an opportunity to shine. I don’t have any bad blood I just said, ‘Yo tell your girl to get out of my DMs.’
      “At the end of the day, will we see that fight? I would run that s*** easy – that’s an easier fight than Tyron in my opinion. People say he’s a real boxer – OK, maybe, let’s run it real boxer”
      WORK FOUR IT
      Jake Paul was rocked and hurt for the first time in his boxing career during his split-decision win over Tyron Woodley.
      But after three routine knockout wins, this was his most difficult test so far, and so it proved in the fourth round.
      Woodley had started passively but exploded in round four as he finally went on the offensive.
      That is when the former UFC star crashed a huge right hook on to the head of Paul.
      The YouTuber was stunned and fell back into the ropes, struggling to keep himself up.
      It was then when Woodley decided to wave his arm around to get the crowd going – rather than going in for the killer blow.
      That allowed the social media personality to catch his breath and recover to see out the remaining 40 seconds of the round
      PAUL RESPONDS
      Jake Paul confirmed he would be keen to face UFC legend Conor McGregor after beating former MMA star Tyron Woodley.
      Paul said: “I’m salivating too because I’m just getting warmed up. Conor McGregor has a lot more to focus on besides me right now.
      “I’m five wins in a row, he’s one in three in the past four years so he needs to get off his vodka or whatever his brand is, sober up and get back in the gym then we can f*****g fight.
      “There’s no way he hits harder than Woodley, he doesn’t weigh as much as Woodley, he’s shorter than Woodley.
      “I said it before the fight, I think Woodley is a harder fight than him, especially on the weight he is going – Conor is going down, I’m going up.”
      Paul was also called out by Tommy Fury after the boxer beat Anthony Taylor
      JAKE DROOL
      UFC legend Conor McGregor is ‘salivating’ at the prospect of fighting Jake Paul, who has also been challenged by Tommy Fury.
      McGregor took to social media with a simple one-word message after Paul’s split-decision win over Tyron Woodley.

      Bisping said: “He’s very beatable. You mentioned there Tommy Fury, I don’t even think they’d take that fight.
      “They want someone that’s big, that’s a marquee kind of pay-per-view draw but somebody that’s at the end of their career that isn’t really going to pose too much of a threat.
      “And for that reason, you know damn well they ain’t going to call me”

      The former MMA favourite said: “I’ll be honest I want to jump in there with him after seeing that tonight.
      “Look at all the hype, people are going crazy for him, you’ve got to admit it was a pretty enjoyable event and quite the spectacle if I’m honest.
      “So yeah, listen I was watching, my God this is easy work. You want to throw some cash at me Jake, I’ll do it.
      “I’m only joking – but I’m a little bit serious because I’m like man this is the easiest sparring session of my life.
      “But Jake’s got a ton of options, tons of options. A lot of people would fight him, because he’s very beatable.”

      PAUL REACTS
      “I’ve been boxing for 18 months now. I haven’t been to the dentist, I barely got my hair cut in the last two years.
      “My teeth are crooked, my nose is crooked.I’ve dedicated the last 18 months to this.
      “I haven’t stopped, I think I might need to chill out for a second and figure out who I am. I’m only 24, I’m changing, I’m growing, I’m learning a lot.
      “I’m going through ups and downs and I’m making mistakes. I’m going through ups and downs. But I’m keeping my head straight and we’ll see”
      WOOD YOU BELIEVE IT?
      Jake Paul argued Jake Paul is an ‘easier’ opponent than former UFC champion Tyron Woodley.
      Paul beat Woodley over eight rounds by split-decision and Fury called out the YouTuber afterwards.
      He it appears the brother of Tyson is not on the social media sensation’s immediate plans.

      FUR SURE
      Michael Bisping does not believe Jake Paul will be looking to fight Tommy Fury any time soon.
      Bisping said: “He’s very beatable. You mentioned there Tommy Fury, I don’t even think they’d take that fight.
      They want someone that’s big, that’s a marquee kind of pay-per-view draw but somebody that’s at the end of their career that isn’t really going to pose too much of a threat.
      “And for that reason, you know damn well they ain’t going to call me.”
      MIKE DROP
      UFC legend and former middleweight champion Michael Bisping opened the door to fighting Jake Paul.
      He said: “I’ll be honest I want to jump in there with him after seeing that tonight.
      “Look at all the hype, people are going crazy for him, you’ve got to admit it was a pretty enjoyable event and quite the spectacle if I’m honest.
      “So yeah, listen I was watching, my God this is easy work. You want to throw some cash at me Jake, I’ll do it.
      “I’m only joking – but I’m a little bit serious because I’m like man this is the easiest sparring session of my life.
      “But Jake’s got a ton of options, tons of options. A lot of people would fight him, because he’s very beatable.”
      FUR REAL?
      Here is footage of Tommy Fury’s altercation with Jake Paul’s team.
      Fury called to fight Jake and even the YouTuber’s brother Logan was heard in the spat.
      Security guards were able to break up the coming together.

      DILL OR NO DILL?
      Conor McGregor’s training partner Dillon Danis was quick to take a shot at Jake Paul.
      The pair have feuded online for years but Danis rejected a grudge match earlier in the year due to an injury.
      But he has since called to fight Paul and shared a pictured of the YouTuber being held up by the ropes.

      SHIELD OF HONOUR
      Women’s boxing star Claressa Shields was vocal in her opinion of Tyron Woodley winning the fight.
      Shields said: “I thought Tyron Woodley won.
      “It wasn’t no competition, what the hell did Jake Paul do? Did he hurt Woodley? He ran around the ring, he backed up the whole time.
      “He didn’t win the fight. It wasn’t no close fight to me, I thought Tyron Woodley clearly won.”
      MORE ACTION
      Here is some more action of Jake Paul and Tyron Woodley going at it.
      A left hook bounced off Paul’s head but Woodley failed to capitalise and allowed his opponent to survive.

      THIGH TATT
      Tyron Woodley doesn’t plan on getting the ‘I love Jake Paul tattoo’ anywhere visible to the public.

      KEESY DOES IT
      Here is the fourth round where Jake Paul had to overcome the biggest scare in his boxing career.
      Tyron Woodley landed a big right hand over the top and set Paul stumbling into the ropes.
      The YouTuber must be credited for surviving the shot and boxing out the round, later winning on points.

      DOUBLING DOWN
      Tyron Woodley says he is willing to get ‘I love Jake Paul’ tatooed on him in order to land a rematch.

      YOU BETCHA 
      Jake Paul agreed to rematch Tyron Woodley – but only if the former UFC champion follows through with their tattoo bet.
      Before the pair fought, they shook hands on the loser having the winner’s name tattooed on them.
      Paul later won over eight-rounds by split-decision, but Woodley argued he deserved the win and demanded a rematch.
      And he was told it was his – so long as he stayed true to his word and had ‘I love Jake Paul’ inked on him.
      Paul, 24, said: “If you get the tattoo, I love Jake Paul, let’s run it back,”
      Woodley, 39, replied: “Bet. Let’s go.”
      Paul added: “Get the tattoo and we’ll run it back. We got the tattoo artist right here, so you ain’t going nowhere.
      “Wipe the sweat off and shave that leg, because I’m fucking putting I love Jake Paul on your leg and we can run it back.”

      DISAPPOINTED
      UFC welterweight champion Kamaru Usman has also shared his disappointent at Tyron Woodley’s performance.

      SHOTS FIRED
      It’s safe to say Tommy Fury wasn’t impressed by Jake Paul’s win over Tyron Woodley.
      He said: “The can say whatever he wants about my performance, but he just went eight rounds with a guy that just walked forward like a plank of wood and didn’t throw a shot.
      “And every time Tyron did throw a shot, he nearly knocked him out.”

      DIAZ DISS
      UFC fan favourite Nate Diaz was far from impressed by Jake Paul’s clash with Tyron Woodley.
      And he took to Twitter to express his frustration at the bout.

      Touching moment Jake Paul and Tyron Woodley’s mums embrace in ring after their sons battle it out in savage fight

      by

      JAKE PAUL and Tyron Woodley may have battered each other for eight rounds – but their mums hugged in the ring afterwards.The parents were ringside to watch their sons in action in Cleveland last night.
      The mums of Jake Paul and Tyron Woodley were all smiles in the ring after the fight
      Pamela Ann Stepnick and Deborah Woodley had a long and warm embrace

      And after Paul secured a split-decision win, the celebrations could begin for his camp.
      But Pamela Ann Stepnick, also mother of Logan, took the time to embrace Deborah Woodley after striking up an unlikely friendship.
      In a touching moment, the pair shared a long, warm hug as they rocked with each other – just as they did in June when the fighters squared off.
      Woodley’s mum is no stranger to embracing her son’s opponents or members of their team.
      After The Chosen One submitted Darren Till at UFC 218, she had a long embrace with the Brit backstage.
      And she had an emotional moment with Kamaru Usman after The Nigerian Nightmare dethroned her son as welterweight king in March 2019.

      Fans on Twitter appreciated the lovely gesture last night – but a couple joked they could put on a better fight than their lads.
      The main event went the full eight rounds, with Paul bossing the early stages before Woodley stunned him in the fourth round – but the 39-year-old ex-UFC champ failed to capitalise on his huge hook that rocked his opponent.
      The Problem Child, 24, recovered well and held his own, finishing the fight the stronger of the two and taking it 78-74, 77-75, 75-77 on the judges’ scorecards.
      Despite the typical trash talk beforehand – which even included Deborah at the chaotic pre-fight press conference – Paul was pretty magnanimous in victory.
      He said: “Look, I don’t know what to say. But he’s a tough opponent.

      “He’s been boxing, striking whatever you call it for 20 years. I’ve been doing this for three years.
      “All respect to Tyron. I have nothing but respect for him.”
      It is unclear what is next for Paul – with a rematch against Woodley or fights against Conor McGregor or Tommy Fury all on the cards.

      Fans claims Jake Paul fight against Tyron Woodley was FIXED with questions over judges’ scorecards and tactics

      by

      JAKE PAUL’S fight against Tyron Woodley was FIXED, fans are claiming.Many of those who watched it were angry with the way the YouTuber’s victory played out.

      Paul, 24, won his fourth professional boxing fight in the early hours of Monday morning after a split decision.
      The judges scored it 77-75, 79-74, 75-77 in Paul’s favour.
      After a cagey opening three rounds, the contest burst into life in the fourth as Woodley finally went on the offensive.
      But things settled back down again towards the end of the eight rounds and the judges gave it to the online personality.
      Paul was rocked and hurt for the first time in his ‘boxing career’ in the fourth round. With a minute to go, Woodley, 39, stepped in and went swinging.
      Woodley, the shorter of the two men, crashed a huge right hook into Paul’s head.

      The YouTuber was stunned and fell back into the ropes, struggling to keep himself upright.
      But thankfully for him, Woodley decided to wave his arm around to get the crowd going – rather than going in for the killer blow.
      That allowed Paul to catch his breath and recover to see out the remaining 40 seconds of the round.

      And this seemed to be the main reason fans thought Woodley had been told NOT to knock Paul out, with The Mail publishing several angry tweets.
      Rae Marie wrote: “No one can tell me this isn’t fixed. Woodley is barely throwing, he could throw and end this at any time.”
      Luke added: “Got the feeling Woodley was told not to knock him out. This game is fixed. Fingers crossed for the [Tommy] Fury fight as that’s a different ball game completely.”
      Ricardo tweeted: “This is such a frustrating fight. Woodley walking him down then just standing in front of him not throwing a punch. This has gotta be fixed.”
      Two judges gave the fight to Jake Paul but Phil Rogers backed Tyron Woodley
      And Hentai chipped in with: “Jake got decked so badly in round four that he was never the same.
      “Here he is 30 minutes after the punch, still in pain and red all over his face. Woodley proceeded to walk him around the ring like a long walk on the beach.
      “This seemed pretty fixed.”

      Paul beat Woodley via split decision in Ohio.
      The judges scored it 77-75, 79-74, 75-77 in Paul’s favour.
      And focus soon switched to what the 24-year-old would do next.
      Online personality Paul initially hinted he would duck the Fury fight and take a break from boxing.
      But soon after he was clashing with the Brit backstage and calling for the fight to be staged.
      However, it appears Tommy’s dad John is not keen on the idea – judging by footage of the 57-year-old that has surfaced online.

      Fury Sr is seen watching Paul talk about his son during his post-fight interview.
      And as the camera zooms in, the veteran fighter and coach is seen looking tense and angry.
      Reaction to the footage online was mixed.
      Muzz tweeted: “Watching the post fight conferences is infuriating. Jake won’t fight Tommy.
      “He’ll say it’s because he doesn’t have the clout or he doesn’t rate him as a boxer. Though the real reason is because Tommy IS an actual boxer.”
      Joe wrote: “I’d follow an entire channel based on John’s hateful reaction.”
      And Crabby said: “Good analysis tonight! Enjoy watching you on the big screen.”
      Paul, who moved to 4-0 with the biggest win of his career, was quizzed about fighting Fury next.
      He argued Woodley is the tougher opponent but left the door open to an all-celebrity bout with Fury.
      Paul said: “Will we see that fight? I would run that s*** easy. That’s an easier fight than Tyron in my opinion.
      “But who knows? But sorry, like, people are like, ‘Oh, he’s a real boxer. Fight a real boxer’. OK, maybe, maybe let’s run it. OK, ‘real boxer’.”
      Fury was labelled ‘ass’ and ‘not very good’ by UFC legends Daniel Cormier and Dillon Danis after his win.

      British rising star Fury saw off Anthony Taylor before the YouTuber defeated Tyron Woodley on a controversial split decision.
      Paul was pushed all the way and suffered the first big blow of his career in round four but recovered to maintain his 100 per cent record.
      And the rivals then clashed backstage after their respective victories.
      Discussing the incident, Paul said: “Look, the guy really had nothing to say, he had a mediocre performance against my sparring partner.
      “All credit to Anthony Taylor he’s a tough guy but Tommy Fury is supposed to be this tough, big bad guy, legendary bloodline.
      “I got into his face and let him talk. I don’t have anything to say to him – at the end of the day I hired him to be here, I gave him an opportunity to shine. I don’t have any bad blood I just said, ‘Yo tell your girl to get out of my DMs.’

      “At the end of the day, will we see that fight? I would run that s*** easy – that’s an easier fight than Tyron in my opinion.
      “People say he’s a real boxer – OK, maybe, let’s run it real boxer.”
      Fury convincingly outboxed and outmanned Taylor on the Paul-Woodley undercard.
      The 2019 Love Island star won all four rounds largely at range and behind his jab to move 7-0 in his career and announced himself to the US market.
      And then he called out Paul, 24, for their all-celebrity blockbuster after their behind-the-scenes fracas.
      Fury, 22, said: “Jake saw me ringside, I was leaning over the ropes waiting to get in. Logan said not now. They ain’t fighters.
      “I was ready to throw hands there and then. This guy [Jake] doesn’t understand – me and my team will go now, we’ll get stuck in so he can count his blessings.
      “Forty of his security team broke it up because the man can’t fight. Imagine him on the street… please. He wouldn’t last two seconds.
      “If he had no security team there with him, he would have walked straight past me.
      “There was a moment in that corridor where everything was going off between the security, my team, his team and it was just me and him.

      “I looked dead into his soul. When the cameras are not around, he doesn’t want to know.
      “Let’s be honest, if he really wanted to fight me, I’d have been in that ring there at the end through the ropes, let’s go, there’s no return.
      “But he didn’t want that and the reason why he didn’t want me in the ring is because if I was getting in there, he wouldn’t be able to go back on it.”
