Logan Paul may boast of YouTube following of more than 20 million dedicated fans, but I can guarantee there will still be some people out there who will enjoy this video of him being hit to the canvas. After all, his career has not been without controversy.
Back in 2018, the American social media star made headlines worldwide after posting a video to his page showing a dead man in the infamous 'Suicide Forest' in Japan.
Logan Paul claims he will learn from his mistake:And in November of 2019, he failed to defeat British YouTuber KSI in his professional boxing debut, blaming the loss on a "cold" that caused him to lose his "killer instinct".
However, ever since his loss, Paul has been training in the hope of becoming a professional fighter. Let's see how that's going...
Keen to improve his in-ring skills, Paul recently posted a video of him training with Brazilian UFC star Paulo Costa.
Costa, 28, not only has a black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, but is also undefeated in his MMA career - boasting an impressive 13-0 record (his most recent win coming again Yoel Romero at UFC 241 back in August).
Check out the KO below (it comes around the 3:00 mark):In the video, uploaded to his YouTube channel yesterday, Paul states: "[Costa's] not a human, he’s a bear, he’s a 13-0 undefeated UFC fighter […] It’s a good thing I’m a professional boxer now."
In what looks like a light sparring session-turned-intense bout, Costa throws a stiff right hook that catches Paul on the Jaw and sends him down to the mat - resulting in Paul's concerned team running to his side.
After Paul came to, he can be heard joking: "How'd I do? I did good?"
The video - subtly titled "KNOCKED OUT BY PROFESSIONAL UFC FIGHTER" - has since been viewed more than 2.5 million times on YouTube.
But despite uploading the footage to his 20 million subscribers, many social media users believe the KO was staged (something we wouldn't put passed Paul).
Staged or not, it didn't stop me watching it a couple dozen times...
