UFC\u2019s Darren Till worried Tyron Woodly is paid to take a dive against Jake Paul ShowtimeUFC fighter Darren Till has voiced some concerns that Tyron Woodley might be willing to take a dive against Jake Paul if he were offered a large amount of money. YouTuber-turned-boxing phenomenon Jake Paul has taken the combat sports world by storm, defeating the likes of former NBA pro Nate Robinson, mixed martial artist Ben Askren, and now, has his sights set on Tyron Woodley. Woodley is a former UFC champion and by far Paul\u2019s biggest test to date \u2013 and despite some big names predicting Tyron, others have their doubts. While on The MMA Hour with Ariel Helwani, Darren Till was asked about his thoughts on Woodley vs Paul. Considering he even lost to Woodley back at UFC 228 in 2018, he has first-hand experience combating the former champ. (Segment begins at 10:50 for mobile viewers) \u201cTyron Woodley beat me fair and square. Am I a better fighter than Tyron? Yeah, I truly believe. You know, I\u2019m gonna keep stamping my name. But he beat me fair and square. And just, I\u2019m very, very worried that like, he\u2019s getting paid a large amount for taking, like, a dive or something,\u201d Till revealed. \u201cVery worried about that.\u201d According to Till, he believes the issue comes down to Woodley\u2019s confidence \u2013 something he thinks is severely lacking. That said, he admitted that although he doesn\u2019t know how strong Jake Paul really is, if Woodley really wanted to win, he could. \u201cI\u2019m not throwing hate at Jake Paul. The guy looks like he can box and looks like he\u2019s training hard. So, you know, I don\u2019t know. I don\u2019t know,\u201d the perplexed Till added. Add this as just yet another wrinkle leading up to what should be a slobberknocker of a boxing match. Of course, Paul is used to people believing his opponents take dives against him, so this shouldn\u2019t come as anything new to The Problem Child. We\u2019ll have to see what happens when Woodley and Paul duke it out on August 29.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
