Just days ahead of their highly awaited bout on Sunday, Jake Paul and Tyron Woodley have landed themselves in yet another controversy. The two are set to fight on Sunday at the Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse. Sources close to the information revealed that Jake Paul doesn’t want Tyron Woodley wearing the same gloves as him. Jake Paul is wearing custom-made gloves from the well-known company Grant. Fighters in the boxing community know Grant gloves for their one-of-a-kind customizations. The company is one of the most recognizable brands in the business as it stands. Floyd Mayweather, Gennady Golovkin, Andre Ward, and Bernard Hopkins are just a few of the names that use their gloves. Woodley’s team reached out to Grant to get their hands on the Grant gloves according to sources [http://www.fighthype.com/news/article44742.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter]. The company told Woodley’s team that they could not customize Woodley’s gloves as requested by Paul. In the boxing world, it is not uncommon to see boxers wear different brands of gloves during their fight. However, Paul has not commented on this peculiar decision to prevent Woodley from using the same brand of gloves.

The fight takes place in Paul’s hometown, Cleveland, Ohio. The fight is eight three-minute rounds, exhibition match rules. Former UFC Welterweight champion Tyron Woodley will make his professional boxing debut on Sunday. His opponent, Jake Paul, is 3-0 as a professional boxer. One of these wins came against Woodley’s longtime friend Ben Askren [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/ben-askren/]. The beef between Tyron Woodley and Jake Paul started at the Triller event Paul vs Askren.

A few minutes later, he watched his friend get knocked out by Paul and things understandably snowballed from there. Woodley is looking to avenge Ben Askren’s loss and make Paul stop talking trash him and his camp once and for all. Paul, on the other hand, considers himself a budding professional fighter and will look to beat Woodley and move on to professional fighters. Who will get their hands raised on Sunday, August 29?

<h2 style="text-align: center">Ben Askren 2021: Record, Net Worth, Salary and Endorsements</h2>
They call him 'Funky', a name that Ben Askren got in his college days because of his unorthodox wrestling style. He is one of those MMA fighters, who merged scrambling into wrestling to dominate his opponents. The multiple organization champion, Askren, is currently retired.

A medal at the Olympics was the goal of Askren growing up. However, his dreams were shattered in the 2008 Summer Olympic Games in Beijing, China, when he <a href="http://www.espn.com/olympics/summer08/results?discId=50" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">lost</a> his very first match against Ivan Fundora.

[caption id="attachment_269755" align="aligncenter" width="1000"]<img class="size-full wp-image-269755" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20200515183506/ben-askren-robbie-lawler-ufc-235-16.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="600" /> Mar 2, 2019; Las Vegas, NV, USA; Ben Askren (blue gloves) defeats Robbie Lawler (red gloves) during UFC 235 at T-Mobile Arena. Mandatory Credit: Stephen R. Sylvanie-USA TODAY Sports[/caption]

Instead of waiting another four years to compete at the highest level, Askren stepped foot in an MMA ring and made his MMA debut in a promotion called Headhunter Productions: The Patriot Act against Josh Flowers and got a quick <a href="https://prommanow.com/2009/02/08/ben-askrin-wins-pro-debut-at-headhunter-productions-patriot-act/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">finish</a>.

Askren fought in Bellator Fighting Championship (now known as Bellator MMA). He became the <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/bellator-mma-ufc-news-youre-running-bellator-into-the-ground-ben-askren-fires-back-at-scott-coker/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Bellator welterweight champion</a> and defended his title against some elite fighters such as Jay Hieron, and Douglas Lima.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Ben Askren: UFC Career</h2>
Askren then debuted in <a href="https://www.onefc.com/features/ben-askren-the-wrestling-legends-complete-story/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">ONE Championship</a> and became the champion in his second match by beating Nobutatsu Suzuki. After defending his title 5 times, Askren retired from MMA. However, he came to the UFC after UFC and ONE FC traded Demetrious Johnson and Ben Askren.



He also made a successful debut in UFC against former champion, Robbie Lawler. However, his unbeaten streak ended against <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/jorge-masvidal/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Jorge Masvidal</a> at UFC 239. Askren competed one more time against Demian Maia and lost.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Ben Askren: Fighting Style</h2>
Askren is one of the best wrestlers on the planet. He has made a career out of wrestling in a sport that is not wrestling. His Jiu-Jitsu is also on a higher level than his competition. Askren's biggest weakness is his striking capability, and he has failed to master even the basic striking defense.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Ben Askren: Achievements</h2>
The fighter holds a proud record of <a href="https://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Ben-Askren-42390" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">19-2-0,1NC</a> in his career. Askren has won multiple championships in wrestling, disc golf, and submission grappling. Besides that, he was the former Bellator MMA and <a href="https://www.onefc.com/features/ben-askren-the-wrestling-legends-complete-story/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">ONE welterweight champion</a>.

Askren also won the Fight of the Night <a href="http://ufcstats.com/fighter-details/0b31f87be71ebbb1" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">bonus</a> one time against Demian Maia.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Ben Askren: Salary and Net Worth 2021</h2>
Askren has earned over $830,500 in his UFC career according to <a href="https://thesportsdaily.com/2019/10/26/ben-askren-career-earnings-fox11/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">The Sports Daily</a>. That is more than what an average star makes in the company. It is noteworthy that these numbers do not include undisclosed bonuses. His net worth is said to be around 10 million dollars by <a href="https://playersbio.com/ben-askren-net-worth/">playersbio </a>
<h2 style="text-align: center">Ben Askren: Endorsements 2021</h2>
Askren makes the most of his earnings from MMA. Apart from that, he has hosted a podcast named <a href="https://therudis.com/podcasts/rudis-wrestling-podcast/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">RUDIS Wrestling Podcast</a>.
