Speculation has been growing that Logan Paul and Conor McGregor could meet in the boxing ring next year. After McGregor dismissed a potential fight with UFC champion Ilia Topuria in favour of facing Paul, talk of the matchup quickly gained traction.
Logan Paul hinted at the fight talks with a recent social media post, even referencing one of McGregor’s famous lines during a WWE promo. However, he has not officially confirmed or denied whether a fight with McGregor is in the works.
Amid the confusion sparked by recent tweets from both athletes, Paul’s close friend attempted to clear things up, sharing some insight into McGregor’s potential return to boxing.
Mike Majlak Weighs in on Rumoured Logan Paul vs. Conor McGregor Boxing Match: ‘The World Would Watch
In a recent interview with Daily Mail Sport, Mike Majlak shared his thoughts on the rumoured Paul vs McGregor Fight. Speaking about the potential matchup Majlak said;
“From what I understand, there were talks about it a while ago,”
“I don’t know if Conor just woke up in Ibiza or something and decided to bring it up today. The last I heard, there were no updates, so I’m not sure if he’s just talking out of nowhere.”
“Logan just had a kid, he’s focused, and he’s a girl dad,”
“Unless there’s something I haven’t heard, I don’t know what Conor’s talking about. But I’ll say this: no matter what, I think the boxing world would love to see it. Two controversial personalities, one loved, one hated. Two different countries, with different fighting styles. That’s a fight the world would watch. It’s like another Mike Tyson/Jake Paul situation. I want to see it happen.”
The Paul vs McGregor rumours follow closely after Logan’s brother, Jake, defeated boxing legend Mike Tyson. While Logan and Jake have teased a potential fight between themselves, it seems they’re headed in separate directions, particularly with the McGregor situation.
If Logan Paul faces McGregor in the ring, it will likely be his toughest challenge, despite McGregor having only one prior boxing match. This was his loss to Floyd Mayweather Jr. in their 2017 crossover bout.

Meanwhile, Paul defeated McGregor’s long time teammate Dillon Danis in his last boxing match and has focused on his WWE career since then.
Majlak’s comments suggest that the Paul vs McGregor bout may have been discussed for months, though no fight has been confirmed yet. More details could emerge as the new year begins.
