He’s a great athlete, it’s kinda like what Masvidal said, Jake Paul is a good athlete but Woodley is a different level of athlete.

In other words Jake Paul is like the best athlete at your local high school, but Woodley was is the type of guy that if he wanted to be an NFL running back and that is what he put his time into training to do from the time he was young, he could have done that. He’s a world class athlete, in order to compete at the level of wrestling he did he had to be. While Jake Paul is a very good athlete. However Jake does have punching power and he’s shown to be a fast leaner, to be that good at boxing in 3.5 years, is very impressive, he seems to have a natural talent for boxing. I am actually a big fan of Jake Paul, I hope he does big things in the sport.
I think Woodley has a chance. Paul's not a slouch of an athlete, he's born to be physically bigger than Tyron.

Paul has most likely dedicated way more time to boxing in the last 3+ years to boxing than Tyron ever has. He's all-in and hungrier. He's probably put more time into strictly boxing skills than Tyron has throughout his career. For that reason, can't underestimate Paul at all. He's got potential to be a legit boxer the way he can knock people out.

We'll find out Sunday where his skills are really at, assuming Tyron's not taking a dive. I think he's taking it srs though. He has more pride in fighting than Askren
