Conor McGregor appears to be all in on his potential boxing match with WWE superstar Logan Paul. "The Notorious" recently claimed on X that he is working towards a return to the ring to face off with Paul in India with his long awaited return to the UFC falling slightly down the priority pecking order.
Paul recently made his WWE comeback at the Raw on Netflix Kickoff event where he announced that he will be stepping back into the pro wrestling world when Raw debuts on Netflix on January 6. During his speech, he even threw a reference to McGregor in there by stealing one of the Irishman's most iconic lines.
As for McGregor, the former UFC champ-champ has been incredibly active on social media over the past few days. It has been a massively significant month for him in general following the verdict of his civil court case where McGregor was found guilty of sexual assault.
In his latest post regarding his combat sports return, he referenced Paul's boxing ability and the fact that both men are under contract with TKO Group which some have suggested will make this fight easier to pull off. As for his potential opponent, Paul's last outing inside the boxing ring was a disqualification victory over McGregor's former teammate, Dillon Danis.
Despite his lack of combat sports experience, the WWE athlete opened as the betting favorite for a contest with "The Notorious". Accompanied by lots of hashtags, McGregor had this to say on the fight.
