“Didn’t Win Any Money”: Logan Paul Explains His Wild Celebration After Sean O’Malley’s UFC 280 Triumph

Logan Paul has been a fan of combat sports for a long time. The YouTuber has even competed in boxing fights and recently signed a deal with WWE and already has two matches to his name. He will next face Roman Reigns at the Crown Jewel premium live event for the Undisputed Universal Championship.

Apart from WWE and boxing, Paul is also an MMA fan and has followed the UFC for quite some time. He recently posted a video on Twitter showing him celebrating his friend Sean O’ Malley’s win at UFC 280 over Petr Yan.

Although Logan Paul is yet to venture into UFC, he has a few friends in the promotion. He has also expressed a desire in the past to test himself in the octagon one day. He may not be in UFC right now, but that didn’t stop him from getting excited seeing his friend Sean O’ Malley’s win inside the cage last week.
