The UFC Middleweight Israel Adesanya and social media influencer and professional wrestler Logan Paul engaged in a training session where the latter ended up in a triangle choke. The pair came together for a session shortly after it was announced that Adesanya signed a deal with Prime. The YouTube, crossover boxing, and WWE star linked up with Adesanya and Alexander Volkanovski for a training session in Puerto Rico.

The professional wrestler, Paul, who has been sidelined from the WWE after he suffered a knee injury, is now recovered and the 28-year-old is expected to make a return to the boxing ring soon.  The American couldn’t resist testing himself against two of the greatest fighters but soon found himself in trouble after Adesanya locked him in a triangle choke, forcing him to tap out.

Logan Paul took to his official Instagram handle, which boasts over 25 million followers, to share a series of pictures with Adesanya and  Volkanovski followed by a video , where Paul was being caught by Adesanya in a choke. Before getting choked by 'The Last Stylebender,' Paul was dominated by the  UFC Featherweight Champion.  Despite the rigorous nature of the video, both Adesanya and Paul could be seen sharing a good laugh.

Watch the video here:

Paul, who had his fans in surprise with his transformation pictures, started working on his transformation when he turned to boxing. He clashed with his online rival KSI that year, but the bout ended in a draw. The duo then went on for a re-match, which KSI ended up winning by split-second. They later became good friends following the launch of their drinks brand, Prime.
