He put a price on his own head! I’ll take the money, Woodley says of Paul’s KO bonus

On Saturday we will see another fight of YouTuber Jake Paul, whose opponent will be Tyron Woodley again after Tommy Fury dropped out. Woodley has been hoping for a rematch ever since he lost to Paul, plus he can make some serious extra money if he KOs his rival. What did he say about this reward?

Jake Paul has promised Tyron Woodley a reward of $500,000 (about 11 million crowns), which the MMA fighter intends to collect.

“He actually put a bounty on his own head with that. I’ll take the money. I was going to end it anyway, so now I just want it a little bit more. You don’t give someone like me the opportunity to cash in on what he was planning to do anyway. It’s extra motivation for me.

He doesn’t think he’s gonna write a bonus saying I’m not gonna go for it? Money motivates me. I’m also motivated by the legacy I’m leaving here. I’m just as eager for payback. So if people are talking about it not being about the money for me, they’re wrong. I’m notgoing into a fight like this with the prospect of making a lot of money,” Woodley said in an interview with MMA Fighting.

Even outside of that bonus, Woodley will make money with the fight that he just wouldn’t make in MMA. After all, celebrity fights really do pull in the U.S. and the whole world is interested in them.

Tommy Fury, who was supposed to be Paul’s original opponent, must now be really sad about the money he actually lost by getting injured.

But there’s nothing stopping him from fighting Paul in the future. The question now is whether the YouTuber will extend his unbeaten streak again or fall for the first time.
