The “Island Boys” became an internet sensation earlier this year, and now they have a new song specifically for Jake Paul vs. Tyron Woodley 2.

Flyy Soulja and Kodiyak Redd are twin brothers who blew up the internet when they shared a video of themselves singing and rapping in a pool, proclaiming that they are, in fact, island boys. If you need a reminder of what made these guys go viral, and ultimately turned them into online superstars, watch the video below:

Well, the two are back and have seemingly been tasked to promote the Showtime PPV event on December 18, 2021, which features the boxing rematch between Jake Paul and former UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley.

“The Problem Child” took to social media on Monday, December 13, 2021, to share a video of Flyy Soulja and Kodiyak Redd singing about the fight and appearing to call themselves “Boxer Boys.”

Paul Was Originally Supposed to Fight Tommy Fury, ‘TNT’ Pulled Out Due to Injury

The Problem Child’s fifth professional boxing match was scheduled to be against heavyweight champion Tyson Fury’s half brother, Tommy Fury, on December 18, 2021. However, “TNT” dropped out of the fight around a week ago after suffering a broken rib and chest infection.

Instead of electing to wait until Fury healed up, Paul decided to grant Woodley a rematch. The two boxed in August 2021 and Paul won the match via split decision. The Problem Child announced the news of the opponent switch via social media on December 6, 2021.

Interestingly, if Woodley manages to knock out Paul, he’ll receive another $500,000 on top of his fight purse.

Paul wrote:

When my team woke me up on Friday to tell me Tommy Fumbles was pulling out, I told them I’ll fight anyone on December 18th. Troy, Trey, Trevor, Travis,… I don’t give a f*** who it is. Tommy’s pulling out because of a “medical condition” called vaginitis. Unlike the Fury’s, Tyron actually has some balls, is stepping in, and contractually he is getting an extra $500,000 if he knocks me out. First time I outboxed him. This time I’m gonna punish him and leave no doubt.
