The last-minute marketing slogan "Leave No Doubt" has been embraced by both Jake Paul and Tyron Woodley ahead of their boxing rematch Saturday night. The eight-round cruiserweight main event takes place at Amalie Arena in Tampa, with the pay-per-view main card set for 9 p.m. ET. Paul, the polarizing social media figure turned professional boxer, won a split decision against Woodley in August. Both he and Woodley, the former UFC welterweight champion, were unhappy with the result. Woodley felt the incorrect decision was rendered, while Paul failed to deliver on his prediction of a knockout. Both combatants have vowed their performances Saturday will embody the slogan and remove any mystery as to who the better boxer is.
The latest Paul vs. Woodley 2 odds at Caesars Sportsbook list Paul as the -270 favorite (risk $270 to win $100), while Woodley comes back at +220 (risk $100 to win $220).

Jake Paul vs. Tyron Woodley 2 preview
Oddsmakers believe Paul (4-0) should make it a 2-0 sweep over Woodley (0-1) come Saturday night. Paul was around a -200 favorite for the first matchup and has been seen as high as -300 in the rematch at some sportsbooks. The volume of action on each fighter will determine the closing price, but it's clear that those who set the numbers are sold on Paul being the superior boxer.
There were times in the first fight that this notion was clear cut and difficult to argue. Although Woodley appeared to have the better conditioning, Paul was largely the aggressor, particularly in the early rounds. He also landed numerous clean combinations and showed solid ring generalship, while the former UFC fighter threw mostly one punch at a time.
Paul has some advantages on the tale of the tape as well. He is 15 years younger and four inches taller than Woodley, and his reach advantage allowed him to land his share of jabs without fear of a counter punch. He also is a naturally bigger man who is fighting at his natural weight, while Woodley is fighting at 20 pounds heavier than he did at the UFC's 170-pound welterweight limit.
