Logan Paul recently returned to the Octagon in his epic fight with Danis Dillon at Manchester’s O2 Arena. The Maverick put on an exhilarating performance and picked up the win. However, it didn’t mark the end of his battle. He again had to take up another challenge of proving his fair play skill to counter one of the many bizarre claims of his opponent. And afresh, Paul had the last laugh.
Just the way the meteoric rise of the social media sensation garnered jealousy in the WWE division, his perked-up personality raised doubt in his MMA endeavor as well. After being defeated via disqualification, Danis Dillon pointed fingers at Paul questioning his transparency at the match.

Paul, 28, has already worn many hats in his career from a young age. Apart from being a top YouTube sensation, a wrestler, and a boxer, he has been an able entrepreneur too, successfully launching his energy drink, Prime, alongside fellow Youtuber KSI.
Paul took on the brickbats he garnered regarding taking energy-enhancing drugs just like a pro-business head. He chose to hit fire back at the critics with a clean VADA test report in his hand while promoting his beverage brand in the process.
In a video shared on social media, Paul noted, ”Got my result back from VADA. I want to address the steroid allegations before you see any news. I want to confess that I’ve been taking a lot of Prime Energy putting it in my mouth and then swallowing it. And that gives me a good boost for my workouts which makes me have a good physique. The results are negative. Haters you’re gonna have to keep trying. No performance-enhancing drugs like I said. Good luck next time though you f****n’ dorks.”

Interestingly enough, this isn’t the first time this has happened to a wrestler in recent times. The same happened to Dwayne Johnson a few months ago.
The Rock was also accused of the same guilt a few years back

The Rock has set the mark high on fitness by maintaining a buffed-up shape throughout his long acting and wrestling career. There are very few people who haven’t been fascinated for once by the chiseled physique of The Brahma Bull even in his fifties. However, UFC color commentator and podcaster Joe Rogan perceived it differently.
He blatantly accused DJ of taking steroids to keep up his almost unreal shape on his podcast. However, it’s worth noting that Johnson himself confessed to taking drugs during his teenage years a while ago. But Johnson has been pretty transparent about whether he has indulged in steroid use since.
