Tyron said hes training like hes fighting Mike Tyson, Paul said during a media workout on Wednesday. Floyd Mayweather is training him, and you can tell hes in shape. Hes got the six-pack back. Hes looking good. Hes not messing around. This is his biggest fight ever, and the whole MMA community is counting on him to represent them and to get the W. Unfortunately, thats not going to happen. And when I beat him, there will be no excuses, because he was being trained by Floyd Mayweather. 2 Related Woodley, 39, of Ferguson, Missouri, whos making his boxing debut, won the UFC title against Robbie Lawler at UFC 201 in 2016. He defended the belt four times but lost his last four fights after that. This is just a lot of fun. I havent had fun in a long time, to be real, Woodley said. I loved this training camp. It was one of my most fun ever. I dont have any issue with Jake Paul. Only issue is he signed the contract. Hes trying his very best to play the mind games. But Im a man. I dont play kids games.
