Fight preview
Paul's fight against Woodley marks his third boxing match in the past year after previously knocking out former NBA guard Nate Robinson and former MMA fighter Ben Askren. Paul also previously defeated fellow YouTuber AnEsonGib via TKO.
Speaking to 3News' Stephanie Haney on the "3 Things to Know" podcast, Paul acknowledged that Woodley, a former UFC welterweight champion, will be the toughest opponent he's faced yet.
"He’s a 5-time UFC champion. He has knockout power," Paul said of Woodley. "He’s been boxing for longer than I have. He was winning championships with his fists while I was on Disney Channel doing the Mickey Mouse ears thing.
"He’s a tough guy and I know that. That’s why [on] August 29 I have to be super sharp, I have to be more prepared than ever and we’ve done every single thing in camp right leading up to this moment and I’m prepared and I just have to go in there. The only person in that ring that can beat me is myself."
Only adding intrigue to Sunday's fight is that the loser of it will be required to get the winner's name tattooed -- a wager that Paul said he will have celebrity tattoo artist, Tatu Baby, on-site to help carry out.
