Paul, 24, won their first bout by split-decision back in August.

And after Tommy Fury's withdrawal handed Woodley a second crack at the YouTuber, Paul is taking it all in his stride.

Donning a ski mask at the press conference, the American declared: "I just thought to myself... it's funny how these 'professionals', like Tommy Fury who's considered a professional boxer, get sick and don't want to fight.

"I've fought sick, I've fought hurt - you've got to go in there and get the job done.

"And then they're like 'oh, you got Tyron Woodley now', no problem - that's why I've got the ski mask on.

"They're going to give me a big bag to go and beat the guy I already beat? It's a bank robbery."

Fury, 22, had labelled his bout with Paul a 'bank robbery', prior to having to pull out.

The Brit told last month: “It’s an opportunity you can’t refuse.

“I’m getting a chance to rob a bank and not go to jail for it, on a massive worldwide stage."

Later in yesterday's press conference, Paul made a crude comment.

Woodley, 39, had declared: "I bet I beat his ass, that's my bet."

Before Paul then had the watching crowd in stitches as he replied: "I'm a eat your ass-beat your ass."

Woodley laughed as he responded: "I'm not falling for that."

His foe Paul tweeted the clip under the message: "I'll eat your ass!"

Each man earned at least £1.5million for their first meeting.

While Paul has promised Woodley a £375,000 bonus if he can knock him out.
