Jake Paul’s trainer believes a rematch with Tyron Woodley will be more challenging than fighting Tommy Fury.
Fury and Paul were set to meet on Saturday, December 18, in Florida, but the "British Love Island" star had to withdraw due to a bacterial chest infection and a broken rib.
Woodley, Paul’s opponent back in August 2021, stepped in as a late replacement for the unbeaten light heavyweight.
Woodley was Paul’s most formidable opponent of his career so far and might have scored a knockdown in the eyes of other judges.
Despite Fury’s professional record of 7-0, BJ Flores told BoxingScene.com that it was a tougher fight to take on Woodley again.
“I think it’s a much tougher fight than Tommy," Flores said. "Kudos to Tyron. He was training and ready when the call came in. This time we will finish the job,” he said.
