Actor and former UFC champion Rampage Jackson doesn’t think that Bradley Martyn would fare well in a fight against Logan Paul.
Logan Paul is one of the influencers credited with kicking off the current influencer-boxing craze thanks to his viral boxing match against KSI way back in 2018.
Since then, Paul has faced off with the likes of Floyd Mayweather and even took up training in MMA — and given his background as a high school wrestler, it’s no surprise that combat sports come easy to him.
Now, Paul is focusing all his efforts on the WWE after scoring his first-ever championship against Rey Mysterio late last year.
Despite his storied pedigree in the fighting world, there are a fair few influencers out there who still think they could beat the YouTuber in a fight… and Bradley Martyn is one of them.
Rampage Jackson says Bradley Martyn doesn’t stand a chance against Logan Paul
During a January 17 episode of Bradley Martyn’s Raw Talk podcast, the YouTuber and bodybuilder brought up Logan Paul in a conversation with special guest Rampage Jackson, known for his accolades as a former pro wrestler, actor and mixed martial artist.
Given Jackson’s experience in the fighting world, Martyn bent his ear to discuss his own chances against Paul in a hypothetical MMA match… but Jackson doesn’t think Paul would even want to fight him, in the first place.

“I don’t think he would fight you, because he has too much to lose,” he explained. “And he sucks. …at fighting.”
“But he’s been training longer, so he’s got an upper hand,” Martyn hit back. “He’s a high school wrestler, so he could beat anyone’s ass, right?”
“Yeah, he’d probably kick your ass,” Jackson admitted. “Get your ass kicked by Logan Paul. Look, he’s a great athlete… but you wanna fight him in an MMA fight? He’s gonna kick your ass.”

Although Jackson wasn’t too keen on Paul in the beginning of their conversation, it looks like he came around in the end, believing that the WWE heel would have an easy time taking care of Martyn in the octagon.
Jackson isn’t the only prominent fighting figure to scoff at Martyn’s martial arts abilities. Joe Rogan notably claimed the bodybuilder would have “no chance” against real UFC fighters, and the UFC’s Sean Strickland even challenged Martyn to accept a street fight against him, saying he would “kill” the influencer.
