‘He Only Has that One Right Hand’- Henry Cejudo Picks Jake Paul to Defeat Tyron Woodley

Former two-division UFC champion, Henry Cejudo spoke to Helen Yee and shared his candid views on an upcoming boxing bout. YouTuber turned boxer, Jake Paul aims to go 4-0 by taking on former UFC welterweight champ Tyron Woodley in a boxing ring.

Jake Paul is coming off a KO win over Ben Askren in his last contest. He took fans by surprise with his improved skills and is now truly stepping up his competition. Despite being 0-4 in his last four UFC fights, Woodley is as dangerous as they come. While the entire MMA community is largely picking Woodley to come out on top, Henry Cejudo believes that the fight will go in the other direction.

“Man, I tell you what, I hate to say this guys. Well anyway, you guys either hate me or love me. Jake Paul is going to beat Tyron Woodley. This is the reason why- One is the gloves, the gloves are different. The gloves in MMA are four-ounce gloves, I would give it to Woodley because he does have that right hand and that’s the problem, he only has that one right hand.”

“If they use 8-10 ounce gloves, he’s in trouble because Jake Paul is training, he’s around world-class boxers. He’s around scientists. You don’t want to bring a Duke Roufus, with all respect to him, you want the cream of the crop and that’s going to be the difference in the fight. The size of the glove and the fact that Tyron Woodley does not throw combinations”
