McCarthy shared his views on the fight in an episode of his podcast Weighing In. He said:

"Now let's be honest, for 6 rounds, it stunk the place up. They both sucked. Now it was a great finish for Jake Paul, okay? Big time right hand that landed flush and put [Tyron Woodley] face forward but other than that it absolutely was horrible."

Jake Paul and Tyron Woodley fought for the first time earlier this year. The former came out on top following an underwhelming unanimous decision victory.

The first five rounds of the rematch were reminiscent of the first bout. At several points during the fight, fans were heard booing the fighters for their lack of output and the constant clinching.

However, the final punch of the night salvaged the entire main event as Paul caught Woodley with a perfectly placed overhand right, which put the former UFC champion to sleep.
