UFC president slammed Jake Paul in the past for wanting to fight MMA fighters instead of fighting an actual boxer. But in a recent interview, Jake Paul has stated that he wants to fight Conor McGregor, but not in boxing. He wants McGregor inside the UFC Octagon.

“Conor [McGregor] is on a downhill spiral. His limbs are all broken, so, standup game, I’m knocking him out- first round. If I lose then they can take all of the money and whatever, so be it. But I know I can beat Conor.”

Dana White recently provided an update regarding the return of Conor McGregor. He said that the promotion is currently looking for a fight for the ‘The Notorious’ one late in the year. However, everything is still dependent on McGregor’s recovery rate.

Conor recently expressed the wish to make history by becoming the first three-division UFC champion. Hence, he wants to fight Kamaru Usman for the Welterweight championship. However, it remains to be seen which direction the company takes with Conor’s return fight. White did not rule out the possibility of the 33-year old fighting for the lightweight belt either.

Regardless of who he fights next, a Conor McGregor fight always garners the most amount of attention out of any of the other events. Hence, Paul’s obsession with the Dublin native is understandable. However, a fight between him and Conor does not seem probable in the near future.
