The tagline for the rematch between Jake Paul and Tyron Woodley was "Leave No Doubt." The YouTube sensation-turned-prizefighter did exactly that when he knocked Woodley out cold in the sixth round at Amalie Arena in Tampa, Fla., on Saturday night.

Paul was originally set to face Tommy Fury for his fifth professional fight, but a rib injury and chest infection forced the younger half-brother of Tyson Fury out of the bout. Woodley stepped in on two weeks' notice aiming to avenge his narrow split-decision loss to Paul in August. Instead of getting his revenge, he found himself face down on the canvas courtesy of a vicious right hand by Paul.  

"I told you I was going to f— him up and I f—ed him up," Paul said afterward. "I got the job done and I knew it would happen like that."

The first five rounds were relatively uneventful. Paul sought to establish the jab while Woodley fell short with a counter right hand. There was plenty of clinching, which brought out a smattering of boos from the audience. The biggest moment of the fight was an inadvertent elbow by Woodley that left Paul with a nasty gash on his forehead that poured out blood. 

But everything changed two minutes into the sixth when Paul feinted and fired an overhand right that sneaked around Woodley's glove and crashed into the side of his head. Woodley's lights were immediately cut off as he face-planted into the canvas. There was no need for a count; the fight was over. 

Paul (5-0, four KOs) made good on his promise. He has now knocked out every one of his opponents. The 24-year-old later took aim at UFC fighters Nate Diaz and Jorge Masvidal, who were both in the arena but left sometime during the fight. "The Problem Child" has plenty of options for his next fight, but for now, he has earned the title of boxing's disruptor.

Midnight: It's main event time! Hip Hop artist Joyner Lucas brings out Tyron Woodley while Jake Paul walks out to the Village People's classic "YMCA."

Amanda Serrano bludgeons Miriam Gutierrez for violent unanimous decision

11:40 p.m.: The saying "everything including the kitchen sink" applies here as Serrano clobbered Gutierrez for 10 rounds to earn a dominant decision. There's no reason to wait any longer for the Serrano vs. Katie Taylor fight. Let's make it happen. 

11:30 p.m.: The seventh and eighth rounds have been all Serrano. She has put together a brutal display of power punches. The durable Gutierrez is getting broken down by an assault. Serrano is landing her power shots everywhere she chooses. Gutierrez's face is falling apart and it could only be a matter of time before Serrano does what Taylor could not: finish Gutierrez.

11:24 p.m.: Gutierrez has stayed composed through six rounds and has found success with counterpunching, but Serrano is completely in charge and landing the bigger punches while also keeping the volume up. 

11:11 p.m.: After a first round where Serrano blitzed Gutierrez, we had a closer second frame where Gutierrez remained composed and managed to throw just enough punches to not be overwhelmed by Serrano's offense. But Serrano is clearly the better fighter and it doesn't appear that Gutierrez is going to have the power to fend her off. 

10:52 p.m.: Up next is seven-division world champion Amanda Serrano in a lightweight battle against Miriam Gutierrez. The prevailing thought is that a Serrano victory could land her the fight with Katie Taylor that she's been after. 

Deron Williams drops Frank Gore, takes split decision

10:45 p.m.: Williams is one and done after beating Gore by split decision. He said after the fight that he won't be doing this again. It wasn't a technical classic, but it sure was fun as Williams dropped Gore in the second round to edge out the former running back. Both had their moments but Williams was a little more skilled and used his height and reach advantage in the exhibition battle.

10:32 p.m.: Fun fight through two rounds. Williams was strong in the first round but both fighters got reckless and pushed each other to the ground in the second round. Gore and Williams giving it their all. 

10:16 p.m.: Up next is former NBA All-Star Deron Williams taking on NFL Pro Bowler Frank Gore. For round-by-round updates, go to our Williams-Gore blog.

10:03 p.m.: Although he was dropped in the first round, Liam Paro managed to earn a split decision with scores of 96-93, 95-94 and 94-95. He was the busier fighter throughout and did just enough to get the nod.  

9:54 p.m.: Two rounds left to go and the fight is still even. Paro has been busier and varied in his attack while Alamo finds ways to pick off his advances. It's not necessarily exciting and the fans found a fight in the crowd to be more interesting than the one in the ring. 

9:34 p.m.: After four rounds, this is a relatively even fight. Alamo did put Paro down in the first round with a counter right hand but their punch stats have been virtually identical since then. It's a solid, but not quite spectacular, affair to open the card. 

9:06 p.m.: We're live! Fans have already filled the arena, which is a good sign for any boxing event. Kicking off the pay-per-view portion of the card is a battle of unbeaten super lightweights between Liam Paro and Yomar Alamo.
