Former UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley has responded to Dana White's unsavory comments about his fight with YouTube star Jake Paul. 'The Chosen One' aired a live Instagram video and took a subtle jab at his former boss, saying:
"I have a lot of people that was (sic) just kinda a little salty about me making a little money. I don't disclose what I do; I don't disclose what I make but at the end of the day I made money before. This ain't my first time making money."

His response comes after Dana White recently scoffed at Woodley's claim that he's getting the "biggest payday" of his career for his upcoming showdown against the social media sensation. Speaking to members of the media at the UFC 263 press conference, Dana White said:
“I’ve been hearing that bullsh*t forever. I’ve been hearing that. They’re all full of sh*t. What’s he making? Exactly. If it’s that much money and he’s so f*cking proud of how much it is, how much is it? They’re all full of sh*t. That’s how you hype up a fight, too.”
Tyron Woodley isn't the first ex-UFC fighter to make such a claim. Former UFC welterweight Ben Askren made a similar statement ahead of his highly-publicized clash with Jake Paul.
In recent months, Jake Paul has emerged as an unlikely champion for mixed martial artists as he has led the charge in criticizing Dana White over fighter pay. 'The Problem Child' posted a lengthy message directed at Dana White on Twitter:
"Maybe it's time to pay your fighters their fair share? No wonder they all want to go into boxing."
