Former UFC champion Tyron Woodley had no problem finding a new line of work, as he will square off with Jake Paul later this year.
The bout is set for Showtime pay-per-view according to multiple reports.
Woodley became the No. 1 contender to Paul after confronting him and his entourage prior to the recent Ben Askren-Paul bout. A press conference to reveal more details is set for later this week including the date and location for the match.
The YouTube celebrity-turned-boxer will be stepping up his competition once again. Paul knocked out former NBA player Nate Robinson prior to besting Askren inside the boxing ring.

Woodley has made it known that he wants to be next through several interviews and social media. Back in April after a video of Paul and Daniel Cormier having a confrontation surfaced, Woodley wrote “You already scared shitless. I don’t have to slap you.
“But the moment I walk away after I knock you out….The world will rejoice.”
