Social media star and YouTuber Jake Paul defeated former UFC welterweights champion, Tyron Woodley on Sunday evening at Cleveland.

The 24-year old YouTuber-turned-boxer was rocked by a solid right hand which sent him into the ropes from the former UFC champion 39-year old Woodley, in the fourth round.

But Jake Paul, who had won his previous four fights within only two rounds, won 77-75, 75-77, 78-74 on the scorecards. Despite finding a knockout for the first time, Jake fought his way to winning the tie.

Paul’s only major concern came in the fourth when a right hand clubbed against the side of his head and staggered him, and it seemed he was only kept on his feet by the middle rope.

On the undercard, Tommy Fury gave Anthony Taylor a tough match and defeated him with a blow meaning Dury could next fight Jake.

“Let’s get it on Jake. I’ve done my bit, you do your bit,” said Fury after he won by unanimous decision on his US debut.

“It should be easy enough for him, I went four rounds with his sparring partner. I’m a seven-fight novice in the gym, nowhere near the finished article.”

But Fury may have to wait for his battle with Paul as  Tyron Woodley, who was making his boxing debut, demanded a rematch, believing he had won the match.

Paul, who is three inches taller than Woodley but at 13st 8lb only half a pound heavier said he would take the fight if his opponent got a tattoo in a post-fight argument between the two Boxers.

“Me and Jake need to run it back. I want a rematch. I feel like I won,” Woodley said.

“If you get a tattoo ‘I love Jake Paul’ then we will run it back,” Paul retorted, to which Woodley agreed.

Speaking to the media after Woodley, Jake said the fight was tougher than he expected but he still expected to win against Woodley.

“He has been boxing, striking, for 20 years. I’ve been doing it for three years,” said Paul after the tie. “It was tougher than I expected. He is a tough opponent. He put up a good fight.

“He hit me with one real shot in the whole fight.”

It is still a matter of time before it is known if and when Jake will meet with Fury in the ring to battle it out.
