Logan Paul vs Conor McGregor: A Feud in the Making
The idea of a showdown between Logan Paul and Conor McGregor has taken fans by surprise. Recently, McGregor hinted that he could face Logan Paul in a boxing match in India. Following that, he plans to return to the UFC Octagon, where he rose to fame.

Daniel Cormier Doubts Logan Paul
Daniel Cormier shared his skepticism in a recent interview with MMA Junkie, saying he’ll believe it when he sees it.
“We talk about impact. That right there tells you the impact of Conor McGregor,” Cormier said. “Conor McGregor has told us a lot of things over the last three years. None of them have come to fruition. I’m gonna have to see it to believe it.”
Cormier acknowledged McGregor’s influence but expressed doubts about whether the proposed fight with Logan Paul would happen. He believes McGregor’s priority should be reclaiming his place in the Octagon.
“I think he’s gonna fight in the octagon. I think he has to, though,” Cormier explained. “For Conor McGregor to – he’s got to rinse some of the stench off of him from everything that’s happened outside of the octagon. Where he made his home is inside that cage, and I think at some point he’s gonna have to get back there.”
