The pair, 24 and 39 respectively, have been embroiled in a war of words ever since Paul’s brutal first-round KO of Woodley’s good friend Ben Askren.
And The Problem Child has lit the blue touch paper by sharing a mock-up Dumb and Dumber poster featuring Woodley and Askren.
The photoshop of the iconic poster featured Woodley and Askren arm-in-arm with the classic ‘I’m with stupid’ t-shirts.
The caption emblazoned on the bottom of the poster read: “For Tyron and Ben, every day is a no-brainer.”
Paul’s accompanying caption read: “Bff’s!”
Paul stretched his professional record to 3-0 in April with his 119-second demolition of ex-Bellator and ONE Championship ace Askren.

And Woodley, who was recently released by the UFC following his fourth consecutive loss, is relishing the opportunity to avenge his fallen friend.
He told ESPN: “Easiest fight of my career & biggest purse of my career all in one night.
“Basically, they brought me in to take out the trash. Can’t wait to shut this b***h up.
“This is getting done for the culture, the whole MMA/boxing community, to rid this guy of combat sports.”
Paul is looking forward to the step-up in competition and is confident of adding Woodley’s name to his list of victims.
He said: “It’s official. I have a list of people I plan on knocking out and as I enter my fourth pro fight, I am excited to cross the first one off the list by challenging myself against @twooodley a 5-time UFC Champion known for his knockout power.
The Chosen One later added: “Dear @jakepaul keep the Billed cap I’m taking your head clean off your neck! #GotchaSoul.”
He said: “Tyron ran his mouth a little too much in the locker room when I knocked out his best friend Ben and earned himself a top spot on the Problem Child death list.
“Tyron’s a seasoned striker who has fought the best MMA fighters in the world but will be dropped by a Disney teen star in 2 rounds.
“Maybe this time Dana White will actually be a man of his word and put his money on his former champion instead of trying to undermine my success like a jealous ex.
“Influencer vs MMA….let’s get it on. It’s Showtime.”
