Jake Paul talks about his ring gear for the Tyron Woodley fight
Jake Paul is looking to do a similar thing with his fight against Tyron Woodley on August 29th. Paul recently claimed that his walkout gear will have a huge impact in the world of boxing in the years to come. In a recent podcast with The Last Stand, Jake Paul stated:
“I put on a show, I do things different, I have a mascot(The Problem Bot). The fight night shorts that I’m wearing August 29, you’ll never have seen anything like it. I think it will be something that people and boxers will copy for years to come. So I’m just coming in with a different flavour, a different sauce. I speak my mind, I don’t care if people like me or not, and I’m good at this sport.”
It’s needless to say that Jake does bring a lot of attention every time he fights in the ring. The majority of the MMA community will be rooting against Jake Paul when he takes on Tyron Woodley. However, Jake Paul seems unphased with the hatred he has received from the fans.
