Tyron Woodley prepared to not waste rare second chance in rematch with Jake Paul

Woodley got the call on short notice to step in for Tommy Fury, but remained ready to go at any moment
There's a difference in combat sports between being in shape and being in fight shape, but Tyron Woodley luckily at least had the foundation of the former to lean back upon when he was filming a television show just over one week ago and received an important phone call.
The 39-year-old Woodley, who lost his pro boxing debut to Jake Paul in August by split decision, was offered a shot at retribution that even getting a "I love Jake Paul" tattoo on his left middle finger was unable to lock down.
"They sent a smoke signal so I pulled up," Woodley told "Morning Kombat" on Wednesday at an open workout at the Seminole Hard Rock Casino pool in Tampa, Florida.
