Jake was scheduled for a match against professional boxer Tommy Fury. However, Woodley was called to fill in for the latter after he had to pull out due to injuries.

Woodley and Jake Paul had their face-off on Saturday, December 18. The martial artist looked out of shape since the beginning of the match, and was knocked out by a right hook in the sixth round.

Tiktoker Noah Austin (@noahaustinlive) noticed a peculiar movement made by Tyron Woodley just before he was knocked out by Jake Paul.

Among the multiple videos of the fight, one angle shows Woodley allegedly dropping his hand just before Jake went in for the final punch.

The Tiktok has over 125,000 views. Since then, many have reacted to Woodley's body having an alleged pre-reaction to the incoming punch. Twitter is still divided on the subject.
