Tyron Woodley advises Mike Perry for Jake Paul combat
In a latest interview with The Schmo, Woodley was requested what recommendation he’d give to Perry forward of his upcoming bout with Paul.
“Be composed and be affected person,” Woodley suggested Perry. “He is aware of what it’s wish to spar Jake [Paul], he is aware of Jake will punch and stick and transfer. When he fought me, he wasn’t attempting to knock me down like a few of these guys, he was shifting round. And I really feel like that’s the half that Mike Perry has to look out for…
“He form of must be in hook throwing distance, do injury so he can hit the physique, uppercuts, hooks. So if he’s in that lengthy jab distance, I believe he must learn to shut the hole. He form of does boxing like Mike Tyson anyway, that’s his fashion, he mimics Mike Tyson. So I believe that he’s going to offer Mike [Tyson] just a little little bit of a cheat sheet on closing that hole as nicely.”
Paul is seeking to keep on monitor after three consecutive wins within the ring, together with latest wins over Nate Diaz and Andre August. He knocked out Ryan Bourland in his most up-to-date outing in March.
Perry hasn’t fought in skilled boxing since a loss to Kenneth McNeil in 2015. Since then, he’s made a reputation for himself in bare-knuckle boxing, defeating former UFC champions like Eddie Alvarez.
It’s unclear if Perry will search direct counsel from Woodley forward of the Paul combat, however Woodley would seemingly be a invaluable useful resource for him to contemplate.
