Here's how our experts see the cruiserweight battle playing out on Sunday night in Cleveland
Jake Paul looks to continue building his career as a professional boxer on Sunday when he takes on former UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley in Cleveland. Paul, a social media superstar, will be trying to run his record to 4-0 against Woodley, who is making his professional boxing debut. The fight is expected to be the biggest challenge of Paul's career after he picked up wins over a fellow social media influencer, a former NBA star and one of Woodley's friends, former UFC fighter Ben Askren. While Paul made light work of Askren, Woodley is a far more dangerous striker who picked up some highlight-reel knockouts in his accomplished UFC career. "When I started boxing, I didn't think I'd be here this fast. My original goal was to fight Conor McGregor or Floyd Mayweather, because I knew I would have a big enough pay-per-view draw to do those things. Now I want to become world champion. I want to fight and beat Canelo Alvarez. This has been a fast, quick roller coaster ride, but I didn't expect to be here. I just knew I loved fighting and I knew I was good at it," Paul said at the final press conference.More Related News
