Israel Adesanya, Alexander Volkanovski, Craig Jones and Logan Paul recently got together for a training session. The fighters shared a few moments from the training session on social media and garnered a boatload of attention. ‘The Maverick’ was no stranger to combat sports and after participating in boxing and WWE bouts, he has apparently taken a liking for combat sports. However, training with a BJJ legend gave him insights into the difference in their skills.

Recently, ‘The Last Stylebender’ made an appearance on Paul’s YouTube talk show, ImPaulsive. Therein, the two recollected the experience they gathered together in the training session with Craig Jones. Without a doubt, the two were completely aware of the difference in their grappling skills. Paul was arguably dumbstruck at the gap. In the podcast, he revealed that he had no control whatsoever while rolling with Jones. Immediately after that, Adesanya affirmed that it was what ‘The Quiet One’ did.

Craig Jones left Logan Paul and Israel Adesanya in awe

In the latest episode of ImPaulsive, the UFC middleweight champion and ‘The Maverick’ had a talk about the recent training event they participated in. However, the main focus went on to the quietest and most private Slipknot member. Paul was simply flabbergasted at how easily the others defeated him. But Adesanya pointed out that it wasn’t him, but Jones.

Thereafter, Paul expressed how strong Jones’ jiu-jitsu was. “That guy is so good at Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu”, he said. Adesanya had no choice but to agree and regard his skills as “magic”.
