Logan Paul and KSI‘s Prime Hydration is the UFC’s official global sports drink. Paul had words to say about the recent UFC 295 main event fight between Leon Edwards and Colby Covington. Like Edwards, Paul also had to face brutal trash talks from Dillon Danis before their infamous boxing bout.

In the recent Impaulsive podcast, Logan Paul said what he felt was what transpired after UFC 296. This is what he said.

I mean it was embarrassing. It was a Trump-dick-riding parade for Colby, and I think he was trying to ignite the parts of the audience that will woo for Trump no matter what. But even they were like, 'Yo, you're a moron.'

Logan Paul attributes Colby Covington’s persona to a mental illness

Colby Covington’s performance before, after, and during the fight did not get him any fans. Moreover, he lost many fans and support due to his actions. The overwhelming sentiment in the MMA community was that Covington went too far with the trash talk. Moreover, his disappointing performance against Edwards made fans and fighters alike troll him.

Paul on his podcast Impaulsive attributed Covington to having a mental disorder. This is what Logan Paul said about it.

I think there should be a newly classified mental illness that we've got to look into called MDD, Mild Delusional Disorder. I think delusion is extremely common nowadays for whatever reason. People are delusional, and not just because you're in character trying to sell a fight. You really are not living in the same reality as everyone else.

A medical body does not classify the mental disorder Paul mentioned. Covington’s actions made Paul attribute it to a mental disorder that he made up. However, he clarified an explanation that there are people like Covington who do not live in reality and are delusional.
