Paul is confident he can step up his game plan and destroy Woodley in the rematch. He said to CBS, “First time I outboxed him. This time I am gonna punish him and leave no doubt.”

Tyron Woodley Can Be More Dangerous in the Rematch

When he made his boxing debut against Paul, he was very conservative. Woodley did not move his hands enough. However, when he threw and landed, he was very dangerous. In fact, Woodley arguably scored a knockdown that was not called when the ring ropes held Paul up following a right cross. This means Woodley has a strong chance to win if he hurts Paul more often.

Our Jake Paul vs Tyron Woodley 2 Predictions

For obvious reasons, Paul will likely be the boxer, while Woodley the puncher in the rematch. What is more, Woodley will look to fight from inside, while Paul will be boxing from outside. The reason is that Paul enjoys height and reach advantage.
