Jake Paul and Tyron Woodley meet in a highly anticipated rematch on December 18th at the Amalie Arena in Tampa, Florida, airing live on Showtime Pay-Per-View at midnight EST. This bout replaces Paul's originally scheduled fight with Tommy Fury, who withdrew due to injury.

The fighters' first encounter in August 2021 ended in a split decision victory for Paul (77-75, 78-74, with one card 77-75 for Woodley). The most significant moment came when Woodley rocked Paul with a left hand in round four, though Paul ultimately outscored him from range.
