The weight makes a HUGE difference and TBF, Paul isn’t awful. He’s solid, bigger, and is using the range well and tying Woodley up when needed. Woodley should be teeing him up with that right hand, after utilizing the jab! #PaulWoodley

Maybe I’m crazy, but I just feel “MY” dignity is worth more than the payday for a rematch like this. Maybe it’s bc I’m not in that situation but it’s like will things really be different?
Woodley has all tools in the world, and has been on top with those skills. Different times.

That’s it. Jake Paul vs Francis Ngannou is the only answer.

Jake Paul showed he has toughness and won’t quit! Tyron wasn’t active enough, not a bad fight tho. It was activity! Paul was exhausted and when guys are that tired gotta show em the door. Whatever man. Dammit Tyron

Jericho, who’s the 1st ever AEW World Champion, replied the following:
“He’d be better in @aew!! @jakepaul”
