Tyron Woodley's coach uses Manny Pacquiao example in warning to Jake Paul

Tyron Woodley's coach uses Manny Pacquiao example in warning to Jake PaulShowtime Boxing
The Filipino suffered a huge upset against Yordenis Ugas.

Pedro Diaz has warned Jake Paul against complacency when the popular YouTuber faces Tyron Woodley this weekend. Diaz, the coach of Woodley, has identified Yordenis Ugas’ shocking win over Manny Pacquiao earlier this year as a prime example of a late substitute ripping up the script and causing an upset. 

Paul, who was originally set to face Tommy Fury this Saturday, rematches Woodley in a return from their summer encounter. Then, Paul was victorious in a close fight and immediately set his sights on facing Fury. An injury to the Brit forced the bout to be postponed and the former UFC star has stepped in at late notice to save the event. Diaz thinks that could help his man. 

“Boxing is not predictable,” said Diaz when speaking with Betway. “Ugas took the fight against Pacquiao at ten days' notice and got the win, it's the same this time with Woodley, so I think it's possible he could beat Jake.

“Jake Paul has improved a lot, and I think Jake Paul is going to move a lot more in this fight than the first one because he knows what happened in the first fight when he stood in front of Tyron. Jake’s going to avoid going to war with Tyron.”
