Conor McGregor is back in the ring, but the ring has ropes instead of a steel cage. The Irish fighter took the world by surprise when he first announced his fight with Logan Paul in India. It seems another bigger shock awaits the fans as the rumors of him fighting Jake Paul also garner steam..

McGregor, 36, could be making his way to the boxing ring since his fight with Floyd Mayweather in 2017. But if he is fighting ‘Problem Child’ next, has he dumped Logan? It could be the case. After all, it’s all about money in the end, and Paul, 27, is one of the biggest faces in the boxing world.

Conor McGregor ready for a Jake Paul money fight

Happy Punch shared the latest rumors in the boxing world, as they shared that a fight between McGregor and Paul was on the table. In addition, the fight was being targeted for the third quarter of 2025, and the venue remained in India. They wrote, “Conor McGregor vs Jake Paul is reportedly now on the table for July-September in India.”

ESPN’s Salvador Rodriguez dropped the speculation first, so there could be some substance to it. But does it mean the fight with Logan is done now? What about ‘Mystic Mac’s much-awaited return to the Octagon? The fans debated it all when they took to the comment section and expressed their candid opinions on the McGregor vs. Paul fight rumors.

Fans up in arms against ‘The Notorious’

One fan believed McGregor needed money. They declared, “Conor must need money.” The UFC star’s business has taken a hit since the Nikita Hand case, and it could be the reason he agreed to the fight.

A user called the McGregor vs. Paul fight a money heist but admitted that they would still be watching it. They announced, “Conor McGregor vs Jake Paul will be a huge money Heist for Boxing but we will all be watching. On @netflix.” The Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson fight was on Netflix, and if the same platform again bags the right to McGregor vs. Paul, then it could shatter multiple viewership records.

Someone hypothesized that the fight would be a snooze fest. They said, “Going to be a snooze fest , when was the last time mcgregor won a fight???” While Paul has emerged as a TKO artist in his recent fights, McGregor last fought over 3 years ago, and his last win came in 2020 against Donald Cerrone.

A comment cast doubt on the fight but picked a side. The comment read, “Doubtful but I’m rolling with Jake.. Conor is washed.” Paul has been more active in the boxing world and boasts a record of 11-1, whereas McGregor only fought once and has a record of 0-1. So, it was a logical pick.

Lastly, a fan alluded to all the legal troubles McGregor was going through. They penned, “Conor might be broke from all the lawsuits.” Apart from the Nikita Hand case, McGregor is also involved in a lawsuit with once-friend Artem Lobov over the Proper Twelve Whiskey creation.
