There was no footage of Logan Paul and Bradley Martyn’s recent gym fight, but the WWE star has now revealed how he landed a quick win.
The YouTuber duo had been feuding online, with the pair both eager to fight one another in an unsanctioned MMA fight. Eventually, Paul agreed to come to Martyn’s Zoo Culture Gym in California, under the premise that no footage be taken at all of the altercation.
Both men signed waivers and agreed to compete without any padding or hand wraps, let alone gloves or head gear. And it appears that Paul made short work of his bodybuilder rival given his years of combat experience.
Logan Paul tells brother Jake how he made short work of Bradley Martyn in secret bare knuckle MMA fight
In a new video posted by Logan Paul’s podcast co-host Mike Majlak, the entire build-up to the secretive gym fight was revealed, as well as the aftermath. Throughout the 25 minute video, Martyn seemed tentative and frequently noted that he expected them to compete in an actual event.
However, he agreed to the alternative, which was a fight inside his California gym, with all security cameras turned off and no videographers allowed. Paul’s fiancee Nina Agdal, who is currently pregnant with their first child, as well as Majlak repeatedly warned him against the endeavor.
As the pair were signing waivers, cameras were switched off, and not switched on again until after the action was over. Many fans have noted online that neither appeared to be particularly banged up or even tired after the ordeal, as it was later revealed to have lasted a matter of seconds.
Speaking with his brother Jake Paul during Majlak’s latest episode of The Night Shift, Logan revealed all the details of the scrap. “Fight starts, I hit him with the jab,” he said. “I think he got a little bit of a mark on his face I think from that because it was the only punch I really hit him with.
“I hit him with the jab, he tried to take me down and we kind of went back into a wall so he couldn’t take me down. I got in double underhooks so I went for a bear hug but his weight was distributed too far back so I couldn’t get in.
“Then we kind of got into a weird clinch position, we backed up, then he threw a punch, he missed, I went under him. Then he kind of tried to get like a guillotine and lock my head. So I just used that, picked his a** up, slammed him on the ground.
“And then he had his one arm in, you know with a guillotine you’re supposed to do two? So he had a decent position but you’re never going to get me with one arm so I just slowly stayed calm, peeled it off – full mount.
“Now I’m ready to f***ing tee off, and he knew that so he flipped to his stomach. I had a rear naked choke in for one second but it slipped out, no legs – I didn’t even need to because he was flat – and then I just popped his head like a speed bag.
“Bro, that s*** was bouncing, it was soft too. Just bing, bing, bing.” Majlak then interjected and noted that it was impressive for Martyn to show up at all and compete calmly, which Jake agreed was unexpected given the chasm in fight experience.
Logan Paul teases potential MMA rematch with Bradley Martyn after bare knuckle fight
While Paul and Martyn’s first go around didn’t seemingly go too smoothly for the bodybuilder, it seems that there is still appetite to see the pair fight. Initially, he wanted them to work together on making a legitimate event happen, but they opted to do the gym fight instead.
And after the bout when cameras were allowed into the room, Paul could be seen telling his rival that there was a chance that they could do a proper fight. “I’m proud of you,” Paul told Martyn, who replied “Thanks for doing it, for real.”
They then discussed the possibility of Martyn training more so that they could “do something for real”. Paul noted that “I might have an offer for you, if you train for real, maybe. I might have an offer for a real MMA fight.”
Logan Paul sends terrifying ‘levels’ warning to Bradley Martyn after secret bare knuckle MMA fight
Bradley Martyn has become something of a meme in the MMA world for his insistence that his size and strength alone would make him capable of beating any smaller sized UFC fighter. He has claimed he would beat legends such as Demetrious Johnson, simply due to his now meme catchphrase ‘I’m 260’.
But Paul showed him the reality of trying to fight without any training, even given his own limited experience. The Ohio native was a high level wrestler in the state of Ohio during his late teens and has boxed professionally multiple times, but has never had a full MMA bout.
However, it seems that he was able to use his experience to great effect against Martyn, who sounds as though he has next to no combat history. And Paul even told him amid their speech full of platitudes about respect that the whole fight was “f***ing nothing”.
“You run your mouth about me, I run my mouth about you,” Paul began, before pivoting by saying “By the way that was f***ing nothing Brad, I’ll be honest. There’s levels to this s***.
Paul has wrestled at a high level, but as an adult has spent more time either in the WWE ring or boxing. He fought fellow YouTuber KSI twice in 2018 and 2019, and went the eight-round distance with Floyd Mayweather in 2021. He won his first fight in October against former Bellator star Dillon Danis.
