In round six, Woodley was brutally defeated by YouTube sensation.
Jake Paul
brutally knocked Tyron Woodley out
The ex-UFC champion made fun of his brutal stoppage loss and offered fans PS3,700 so they could come up with the most hilarious meme about the KO.
Cormier, who was in shock at Ben Askren's loss in April to Paul, mocked Woodley in his online competition.
On ESPN, he said: "Dude, that wasn't good. That was a bad appearance. You know what's worse? The after.
"I don’t know what TWood is doing on social media. He posts the knockout and creates a contest.
"It's almost like Jake Paul is beating down these guys so badly that they begin to make fun of each other."
Cormier, 42 years old, said: "These guys go there to fight that dude. They lose to him." Ben Askren was laughing almost immediately.
"It almost feels like you are so embarrassed by the loss to the 'Disney child' that you start to self-deprecate.
"It's bad. These dudes are terrible."
Paul, 24 years old, was to face Tommy Fury (22) until Tommy, a former British reality TV star, pulled out with a broken bone and chest infection.
Woodley, 39, was signed as a late substitute, but was eliminated in the rematch after just three months.
On Paul's KO List, he now joins YouTuber "AnEsonGib", ex-NBA player Nate Robinson (37), and former UFC welterweight Askren (37).
After faceplanting Woodley, the American social media influencer, Nate Diaz (36), and Jorge Masvidal (37), were called out by UFC.
Cormier, who retired 2020, said that Paul still holds the cards, even though he values former MMA stars in the ring.
He stated that they would fight the kid according to his rules. This kid has all of the time in the world for training.
"The child has money. He has many ways to improve and, honestly, he is much more talented than most people give him credit for.
"The child can fight a little."
