Tyron Woodley continues to pursue a fight with Jake Paul.

In April, the internet celebrity stretched his perfect professional boxing record to 3-0 when he stopped Ben Askren inside one round on Triller pay-per-view. Woodley is a long-time friend of Askren and worked the ‘Funky’ corner on fight night. In the immediate aftermath of the event ‘The Chosen One’ called out Paul who doesn’t appear to have much interest in fighting the former UFC champion.

During a recent interview with TMZ Sports, Woodley suggested Paul is ducking him.

“Jake Paul is – well I guess we kind of recognize he came from Disney – but we’re expecting him to be like this f***ing macho macho man he’s playing but he’s calling out everybody but me,” Woodley said. “I’m the one with real smoke with you. At the end of the day, that was Ben’s fight and I never want to take away the moment from Ben. That was his opportunity so everybody backstage is trying to get love and trying to get their name – almost the same way Jake took the shine away from Logan. They’re just Culture Vultures. He would vulch the juice from his own damn flesh and blood. His cornerman trying to take the juice from him. His whole crew moves goofy. My dogs don’t move like that.

“I was in the gym today in Miami training, looking around for Jake Paul, I ain’t seen him nowhere. He ain’t asked to fight me one time,” Woodley added. “He want to fight Dillon Danis who couldn’t bust a grape in a fruit fight or Tyson Fury’s cousin but he don’t want to fight a real puncher. He wants to walk around and vulch from the culture and suck it dry and walk around and take shots with rappers and think you’re a big shot fighter. Nah, come and get this smoke for real.”

Woodley was cut from the UFC after his last fight and is currently exploring free agency. This makes him a prime candidate to fight Paul as he has no promotional ties whereas other fighters do.

“I’m in and I can actually find him,” Woodley said. “People that keep talking about fighting him, they’re not even in position to fight him. I can actually fight him. I can fight him tomorrow if I want to.”

The welterweight great is keen to teach Paul a lesson for talking smack.

“I just think that some people need to be taught a lesson,” Woodley said. “At the end of the day, you can’t just sit here and think that real motherf***ers that put their time in this – yeah if you want to get in here and get a couple fights and make some money because you’ve got so many subscribers and you did something dope in another lane, I’m all for that. But when it comes down to you’re gonna parade around and act like you’re a straight, ‘Oh I’m a boxer, everybody’s scared of me, I’m this, I’m that’ and then you’re talking s*** about my dog, now we got to go.” (Transcribed by MMA Fighting)

Dana White ‘Not Gonna F***ing Loan’ UFC Fighter To Box Jake Paul

Don’t expect Dana White to get into the Jake Paul business anytime soon.

The YouTube star turned boxing sensation hasn’t been shy about calling out a number of mixed martial artists. From Conor McGregor to Kamaru Usman, Paul has set his sights on anyone and everyone he can find on social media. Even White himself has found himself in Paul’s crosshairs.

The younger Paul brother even showed up at UFC 261, where he was greeted with chants of “F— Jake Paul!” from the crowd and a confrontation from former heavyweight king Daniel Cormier.

With his older brother, Logan, scheduled to face Floyd Mayweather, Jake has been on the prowl for his next opponent. While he may be coming off a first-round knockout of a former UFC fighter in Ben Askren, White told ESPN he wouldn’t be willing to let one of his current fighters take Paul up on his offer (H/T MMA Junkie).

“First of all, I would never do business with those guys, just no,” White said. “No, this is not what we do. I’m not gonna f—ing loan them a guy for f—ing what? There’s no way. You got plenty of f—ing goofballs out there that you can muster up to get in there and play these games that these guys are playing. Yeah, I’m not your guy.”

Despite his total disinterest in doing business with him, White still gave Paul credit for garnering the attention that he has. However, he is still baffled as to how Paul was able to finish Askren.

“Listen, you cannot deny the fact that this kid has inserted himself into the conversation with real guys,” White said. “This guy has got three fights, and I gotta tell you that I don’t know if I truly believe the Ben Askren thing. I have a hard time wrapping by brain around that.

“Let’s see how long it takes before this kid’s 15 minutes are up, but they are being smart. They are keeping him away from anybody that could actually really do damage. I don’t know. The Ben Askren thing still blows my mind.”

Despite his lack of experience and credentials, Paul has still managed to draw millions of eyes to his fights. While they may be miles apart right now, it will be interesting to see if Paul and the UFC can reach a deal that will be mutually beneficial. Most of Paul’s viewers are outside the traditional fight fan market, and you can bet that White and the UFC would love to expand their brand even further.
