Inside Jake Paul’s wild after party following Tyron Woodley KO

Jake Paul has gifted a reporter a Rolex watch after an outlandish encounter at his post-fight press conference on Saturday night.

Paul infamously presented Tyron Woodley with the luxury watch during a face-to-face ahead of their rematch as a thank you for saving their fight card when Tommy Fury pulled out.

And after viciously stopping the former UFC champion in their hastily-arranged rematch this weekend, he was asked if he would make a tradition out of giving gifts to his opponents.

The reporter who asked the question, Peter Blake, was left stunned when Paul responded by offering to give him one of the watches, which can sell for tens of thousands.

“I feel like I have to give them gifts for the trauma I put them through,” Paul told Blake at the press conference when asked about what he would gift his next opponent.

“Maybe, I’ve got more tricks up my sleeves and I don’t know, do you want a Rolex? I can get you one!”

Paul then insisted that manager Nakisa Bidarian get his email address and contact details, although many believed the present would never arrive.

But during a live broadcast of his radio show The Sports Web on NSPN, Blake received a call from Paul’s assistant Marcos Guerrero, who was looking to follow up with a postal address for the broadcaster.

Guerrero was expecting to speak to Blake on a private number, but the contact info had been given for his talk show, so the confirmation of the gift being sent was done live on the radio show.

Paul was in a giving mood following his win over Woodley, and raised over $1million for his charity Boxing Bullies with an auction at his after-party in Florida.

The 24-year-old celebrated his win in style by hosting an after party at the El Tucan restaurant in Miami on behalf of his anti-boxing charity.

The foundation aims to use boxing to install “self-confidence, leadership, and courage” in young people to tackle bullying – was founded by Paul this year.

At the event in Miami, “One of a kind” NFT’s were auctioned off as well as items from Logan Paul and Alec Monopoly, the artist who designed Paul’s $500,000 ‘Most Valuable Boxer’ belt.

Paul viciously knocked Woodley out in the sixth round of their rematch, after being dragged to a split decision in their first bout.

The fight was dubbed ‘leave no doubt, and Paul did just that after an uneventful five rounds that looked set to head to another decision.

He has now called for a fight with former middleweight world champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr, who has moved up in weight in recent years, but has struggled to get on a solid run of form.

The former champion, who has beaten the likes of Andy Lee, got back to winning ways on Saturday night against David Zegarra, but famously lost to 46-year-old MMA legend Anderson Silva over the summer in Mexico.
