The recently signed Logan Paul and UFC president Dana White deal has captivated the MMA world since its announcement. The deal announced Prime; a brand co-founded by Paul and KSI, as the UFC’s official sports drink. While the deal initially kept the fans speculating about the internet phenomenon joining the UFC roster, the deal turned out to be a sponsorship one. Such is the popularity of the Prime that even Gordon Ramsay recently jumped on its bandwagon. However, another peculiar promotion related to Prime attracted fans and another internet sensation, Hasbulla Magomedov‘s attention. Furthermore, contrary to their bewildered reactions, the promotion was the result of Photoshop skills.

Notably, in a bid to increase their global footprint, Logan Paul and KSI recently released a new set of Prime campaign images. Despite the images making rounds on the internet, someone played a mischievous trick and photoshopped the images.
