A Logan Paul vs. Bradley Martyn fight has taken place, with the former as the winner, at least according to 'Maverick', who spoke about squaring off with the bodybuilder in a bare-knuckle MMA fight. Only the bout was never filmed, as Martyn objected to their unsanctioned crap being on camera.
In a recent appearance on his podcast co-host Mike Maljak's The Night Shift video on YouTube, 'Maverick' recounted his fight with Martyn on a phone call with his younger brother, Jake Paul. While it is impossible to verify the outcome of the fight, the older Paul brother claims to have bested Martyn.
According to Paul, he landed the only significant blows in the encounter, forcing a clinch from Martyn, which ultimately led to 'Maverick' taking him down. Paul further claims to have quickly secured top mount after a failed guillotine attempt from Martyn.
"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."

Paul then claims that following Martyn's decision to roll onto his stomach, he managed to briefly find a rear-naked choke, but his grip wasn't tight enough. Nevertheless, as the WWE Superstar continued detailing their fight, the sequence was the beginning of the end.
"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 sh*t was bouncing, it was soft too. Just bing, bing, bing."
