Jake Paul gifted Tyron Woodley a Rolex ahead of their rematch in an elaborate move to troll as he promised to knock out his opponent.

Paul was due to face Tommy Fury in Florida but injury saw him pull out, not before a controversial press conference.

Injury and illness for Fury saw Paul’s last opponent Woodley return after a narrow defeat last time out.

The Problem Child took a split decision win, giving him a 4-0 record in his career so far, but was lucky as the ropes stopped him receiving his first knockdown.

Woodley is out to right the wrongs of the last fight and defeat his opponent, a YouTuber.

But Paul has been impressive and during a pre-bout face-off used a new Rolex as a vehicle to tell ex-UFC champion Woodley he intended to win emphatically this time.

He said: “As a gift of respect because it’s time for me to knock him out.”

Woodley responded: “I accept your gift. And all the bonuses, I accept it all. And I’m going to do the same thing on Saturday.

“This dude is crazy. Do I know about this watch? Yeah I know about this watch.

“Why wouldn’t I accept it? He put a bow on it and wrapped it, I’m not going to be disrespectful.

“I haven’t had an opponent do a lot of s*** that this dude do. Mentally, it’s warfare because you never know what to expect out of him.”

Woodley wasn’t the only one to get a gift either.

Paul gave a rolex to every member of his opponent’s team – the perfect bit of Christmas cheer.
