    The blue touch paper for their fight was lit moments before Paul’s demolition of Woodley’s good friend Ben Askren in April.
    The pair were involved in a heated back-and-forth in the dressing room that left Woodley fuming.
    And their subsequent slanging match on social media has teed up the interesting grudge match, which, on paper, is the toughest fight of Paul’s young boxing career.
    Here’s everything you need to know about the pair’s upcoming bout:

    Who is Jonnie Peacock?
    Jonnie Peacock was born in Cambridge on May 28, 1993.
    At the age of five he contracted meningitis, which led to him having his right leg amputated below the knee.
    He originally wanted to play football, but his athletics prowess was soon discovered during his time at school.
    He was appointed an MBE in the 2013 New Year Honours for services to athletics – and was strutting his stuff on the Strictly 2017 dancefloor until leaving the show in week nine.
    Jonnie was partnered with Oti Mabuse on the show and impressed the judges with his jive on a specially made blade.
    In August 2021, Jonnie made a guest appearance in the Channel 4 soap opera Hollyoaks.
    He was brought in to give advice to character Sid, who had his leg amputated after a car crash in 2020.

    How has Jonnie Peacock’s athletics career worked out?
    Jonnie set a new 100 metres world record in amputee sprinting in  June 2010 in the US when he ran an exceptional 10.85 seconds.
    He won Olympic gold for the first time in front of a home audience at the London 2012 Games, when he ran 10.90 secs in the 100m T44 final.

    Incredibly, the Cambridge runner then defended his Olympic crown by winning the 100m at the 2016 Rio Paralympics, even bettering his London time with 10.81secs.
    The following year he won gold in the T44 100 metres at the World Championships in London.
    Following his success, he was chosen as a presenter for the 2018 Winter Paralympics on Channel 4.
    Jonnie is part of the squad heading to Tokyo, looking to make it a hat-trick of golds.
    Ahead of the Games he said: “I don’t need to go and win another gold medal for my happiness.
    “I would like to, it would probably help – it would probably help the bank more than anything else to be honest – but yeah I’m just happy competing , training full time for a living now and getting enough to live off.
    “I’ll do whatever makes me happy, but that’s probably less work

    Jake Paul net worth 2021 – how much money has he made from boxing career and what is the payday for Tyron Woodley fight?

    JAKE PAUL is set to take the boxing world by storm once again this weekend with a fight against Tyron Woodley. Paul, 3-0 as a fighter, takes on former UFC champ Woodley in his toughest test to date yet.

    The YouTube sensation is the betting favourite going into the fight, but 39-year-old Woodley poses a genuine threat to Paul’s unblemished record.
    One thing that’s for certain, however, is that Paul stands to make another hefty pay-day.
    What is Jake Paul’s net worth?
    Jake Paul had been making a healthy amount of money before his boxing career took off.
    But now that the 24-year-old looks to be an established PPV star, Paul is earning boat-loads in the ring too.
    According to Celebrity Net Worth, Paul’s net worth amounts to around £15million.

    Paul launched his online career back in 2013 which his equally wealthy brother Logan, with the pair making a name for themselves on social media app Vine.
    The pair also have millions of YouTube subscribers and followers in TikTok.
    And then in 2019, Paul had his debut as a boxer, fighter AnEsonGib on a Matchroom USA card, beating the fellow YouTuber in the first round.
    In 2017, Paul started Team 10, his very own digital influencer platform, which acts as a entertainment promotional tool for teenagers.
    How much is Jake Paul being paid to fight Tyron Woodley?
    Paul is expected to make a lot of cash for his fight with Woodley, who also stands to earn big.
    For his fight with Ben Askren, who Paul knocked out in one round earlier this year, Paul’s purse was £500,000 – a huge amount for a fighter so early on in their career.
    Paul would’ve had made more than that once a cut of the pay-per-view revenue came in too, with the fight being broadcasted on Triller.

    Since then, Paul signed a multi-fight promotional deal with Showtime in the U.S., and he now stands to make more for his fights moving forward.
    Paul’s purse for the Woodley fight will likely come close to £1million, and he’s also going to take home a share of the pay-per-view revenue.
    Said revenue should also be higher than what was made for the Askren fight, with Showtime a more well-known brand than Triller. More
