Jake Paul vs Tyron Woodley live results, start time, undercard and live stream
Jake Paul faces the toughest test of his short boxing career tonight when he takes on former UFC welterweight world champion Tyron Woodley.
Paul has so far knocked out fellow YouTube star AnEsonGib, former NBA player Nate Robinson and former UFC star Ben Askren.
But Woodley will bring a far superior striking ability to the ring than Paul's previous opponents and has vowed to bring the social media star's rise to a shuddering halt.
Paul and Woodley are expected to walk to the ring at around 5am UK time but before that fans can watch Tommy Fury – who is angling for a fight with Paul – and Daniel Dubois make their US debuts.
And you can follow all the action live right here with us…

Here's how the untelevised prelim fight went down…

"Skater girls" for Taylor’s entrance?
Anthony Taylor just told media members that he planned to have "skater girls" walk out with him for his fight with Tommy Fury.

Paul and Woodley WILL have fight night drug tests
Yesterday, The Ohio State Athletic Commission revealed that neither of Paul or Woodley will be subjected to fight night drug tests.
But it's now been revealed they both will undergo testing.
Source: @jakepaul and @TWooodley will be tested for PEDs by the Ohio commission following the fight tonight. Initially, there was an issue with the number of test kits available. That’s been rectified. @MikeBohnMMA reported there wouldn’t be testing, which was correct at the time
How’s the weight?
Woodley weighed in at a career-high 189.5 pounds yesterday.
Paul stepped on the scale at 190 pounds.
Although the weight is similiar, Paul will have a four inch height and two inch reach advantage.
Gotcha hat – not!
Watch as Paul tries to take Woodley's hat at the ceremonial weigh-ins
He might have got Floyd Mayweather's, but he didn't get Woodley's.
This time, the hat wasn’t gotten … https://t.co/8MShaivjmc
Paul vows to stop Woodley in one round
Originally predicting the fight would go three rounds, Paul is confident it will be one-and-done for Woodley.
He said: "Before this camp, I said three [rounds] and now I'm thinking max two.
"But to be honest, something in my heart tells me it's going to be another one round fight As crazy as that sounds, I think it's going to be a very very short night for Tyron."
Woodley’s sudden decline
Woodley may have beat some of the best names in MMA during his career, but he is without a win since 2018.
'The Chosen One' lost to Vicente Luque, Colby Covington, Gilbert Burns and Kamaru Usman in his last four UFC fights.
