Jake Paul vs Conor McGregor

[Oilacris]

I voted no although the majority think it can happen, Paul will agree, but I doubt if Connor will agree, he will be advised to just go for UFC and not a boxing match, he is good in MMA and has only fought once on boxing while Jake Paul all matches are in boxing that makes him experienced between the two and besides he has something to settle against Poirier, their last fight ended in a freak accident, so the result is not decisive.

I also voted no, though majority went for yes, first, I must admit that am not really up to date with the happenings in UFC,  but based on the story, I personally think Connor is being over confident in himself, he should atleast allow himself heal properly from his leg injury which he sustained from his fight against Dustin Poirier,  then like the @aioc said, he should settle with Poirier first, before he proceeds to challenging Paul, usman, whoever.
This is just my personal opinion.

Maybe he would do the inverse thing that he would go after with Paul,Usman etc. and lastly he would have a comeback for Poirier but lets see on what would be their plans and i would say that this is

much more worth for them to put focus on rather than on taking their shitty time on making out some arrangements on that exhibition against Jake.They are just basically nonsense if you do ask me,
if they are intently on buying some time for healing process then this wont really be an ideal kind of arrangement.

[harizen]

If the people would demand an exhibition match of the two, then their fight could possibly happen. Otherwise, it won't because audience demand matters too. After all, the ones behind the arrangement should profit too. Let's see whether if this would occur. Although I must say that Jake Paul is really popular when it comes to exhibition matches.

Logan Paul is the one you are referring to popular in exhibition matches, not Jake Paul. If ever McGregor and Jake Paul will face each other, that will be sanctioned as a professional fight, I'm sure of that. If it's just about exhibition matches, there would be no catchweight in the first place.

But I do think this possible fight won't happen first. The comeback of McGregor vs Kusman is more likely to push first.

And for those who think that Jake Paul and McGregor is eyeing for the money, I don't think that way because, in the first place, there will be not much money that will generate at their fight due to the fact that, it's non-sense to watch by the majority. Both fighters are aware of that I'm 100% sure of it. It's more of professional courtesy I guess.

Majority is really looking on this way and they should have realized it at least that this isnt Logan but rather Jake and its true that this would really be a professional fight.
As for revenue then i dont see that this one would really be ending up on having lots just same as you presumed because fans wont really be that too interested with this one.
It is much better and most likely Conor would really be focusing on Kusman which is more worth.

[coin-investor]

It is much better and most likely Conor would really be focusing on Kusman which is more worth.

It's a risky fight for Connor he's in a two losing streak and it could become three in a row we all know how tough Usman is and is considered to be one of the best fighters in UFC today if he's having a hard time against Poirier what more with Usman, I consider the Poirier a safer fight he has a 50/50 chance against Dustin and people still wants to see both of them go each other again, the last one end up with a freak accident and is not considered a valid win for Poirier.

but even then, i believe purse money is still in play here. if they see the demand is decent enough, they will make this happen. let's see if these 2 will be up for it. another easy money in case. sometimes they can earn much as compared to professional boxing matches. what more can they ask from here?

[coolcoinz]

I used to like McGregor back when he wasn't trying to prove that he can box. He was not only great talker but a great walker (and hitter). Both fights with Diaz and the way these two talked to each other - pure gold. Now I feel like the old confident McGregor is gone. He also changed his way of fighting and for the worse. He's less active, slower, less cocky.
That said, I'd like him to win and beat Jake. This guy is nasty, both Paul brothers are, can't stand them. Actually, he shouldn't take the fight. It's not worth it, I'd focus on UFC not on a sport you're not 100% sure you want to be in.

[DoublerHunter]

Fame is definitely the reason for this fight, but I think no one doubts that the main reason for both Poul Logan and Conor McGregor want this fight is money.
I wonder if this fight will be even recorded in any rank.

^ It is always matters about rank, money, and reputation.
But this match will unlikely happen in the UFC as what Danna White said, that these two fighters are no place on this platform.
So it could be entertainment only. There is a conflict between Jake Paul and Conor McGregor so the fight will unlikely happen but who knows.

When you do reach up on being hall of famer in particular sports like on what Conor had reached or attain then fight would be typically be worth it considering on the amount.
For small time or less known then they would most likely be agreeing whenever there are some exhibition fights offered specially if its tandem or vs with popular boxer etc.
then they would directly be arranging or agree upon since they do know that it could really make that kind of revenue or sales.

Age might have caught on Conor already, he is not getting any younger and it's better if he continue his semi-retirement. I don't think he has much to proved in the UFC anymore, he has brought lot of money business wise, inside and outside the ring.

This is an exhibition if he decided to push for it, so I don't think you can call it sports per se, it's all for the money. And I guess this is just the reason why he is allowing this fight to be in his table.

The money will speak and the conflict will attract even more attention. I'm sure this fight will take place. I'm only interested in what rules, because if only in boxing, whether the UFC will be interested in it. On the other hand, I can't imagine Jake Paul fighting Conor McGregor on an MMA basis. I would not be surprised if it was as you wrote, despite the fact that it would be organized by the UFC, just a kind of entertainment/exhibition fight.

If Jake Paul will able to accept Dana's condition, it will happen. Jake Paul is willing to do it either to Octagon or Boxing ring. For the sake of money? Yes, it plays a big role but also to their reputation. If Jake will beat Conor on his comfort element, then expect more challenges to Jake.

In other words, Jake might be trying to make Connor his bridge for the possible more big fights in the future.

That's how he thinks of himself, can do anything.

I'm curious did Dana White say that he'll make the fight happen if jake paul fights in the octagon? because based on what DoublerHunter said, it looks like he has no plan on doing anything to make the fight between the two happen. and IF the fight actually happens in the octagon, there is no way jake paul will win.

In other words, Jake might be trying to make Connor his bridge for the possible more big fights in the future.

what a nightmare.

[Mauser]

And so the banter continues, Jake Paul will keep calling out Conor. It's the perfect publicity. And at this point Fans really want to see the fight. Jake Paul fans want to see him win another fight against a professional, and Conor McGregor fans wants to see him finally shut up Jake Paul for good.
MMA is very technical with ground fights and a lot of different type of chokes. One misstep can end the fight in seconds. I would expect Jake Paul to do well at the start and focus on boxing, but McGregor will counter with kicks, eventually ending in ground fighting. Connor should be winning here, he has so much more experience. Are six months enough to learn everything about MMA? I don't think so, but this new setting makes it more interesting. Would have been awesome to see Anderson Silva in his prime against Jake Paul, the fight would have been over in seconds.

I’m pretty sure too that he will recover his reputation first in UFC before he will do again this kind of clown show. His injury seems not noticeable anymore base on his instagram picture hat he share and also his upper built is very solid right now. AFAIK he is aiming for a world title as comeback on UFC so the chance for this match to occur is very low or maybe he will use Jake Paul match as sparring for his return on MMA fights.

He can expect only to get a title fight. He cant beat any current featherweight, lightweight, welterweight champions. I even think that he is now able to beat only regular fighters, and anyone from top5 is unbeatable for him. His prime time has ended. I expect him to fight next not champions, but guys that are on hype and can sell PPVs.

I dont understand where such rumours about Jake and Conor fight appeared. They replayed to each other several times with Instagram short videos and that is it. It is Jake Paul that wishes this fight as a birthday or xmas present badly. Conor will only laugh on him in media and that is it. But I expect this topic to grow to Logan Paul vs Mike Tyson size.

[Japinat]

I dont understand where such rumours about Jake and Conor fight appeared.

Probably there's a promoter that thinks this fight is going to create a massive profit.
In this news : https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2923200-jake-paul-conor-mcgregor-50m-fight-offer-being-discussed-with-notorious-team

It was Jake Paul who tries to entice Conor with a big $50 million offer just to fight him, and I'm pretty sure Conor would not say no to that.
For the team of Jake Paul to offer that big, they must have seen a big potential of this fight.

The huge amount of money could provably convince McGregor to accept this fight since imagine whooping $50m for single exhibition fight that would totally great for him whatever the result of their fight also he has a lot of advantage for that knowing that Paul is not so experience fighter more than him. This fight would provably sell to the fans since McGregor still have huge influence and his fans want to see fight again on the ring.

It is much better and most likely Conor would really be focusing on Kusman which is more worth.

and also nowadays Boxing enthusiasts started to love the game even when it is not truly a professional fight instead what they wanna see is 2 popular personalities that box in the ring and they can put their Bets no matter what kind of fight was that , not like in the past that we wanted to see the dominance of those professional boxers ,
But i want to see Conor winning this fight , I don't know but i want him to find good place in boxing instead of octagon.

[passwordnow]

There is a likely that money offered to him on this match is higher than Kusman's. But we do understand if it's about glory, he should just better stay with the other UFC fighters than Jake Paul.
But if it's about business and money, then if the offer which was said on the articles that I've read is $50M then he might just take this match, win or lose.

[Zackgeno96]

They both survive the match between Mayweather and they are both have experience in ring. Many enthusiast like this match because they know who has an advantage and place a bet on it, we know that Jake Paul has the advantage since he is in that sports and I don't think Conor McGregor looks good in boxing career I like him more in octagon.

I see. It looks like Jake Paul it trying fight anyone who is popular and from fighting industry.

Why dont Jake Paul want to organize a second fight against Tommy Fury ? Their fight was cancelled due to Tommy broken ribs during training. Their fight was scheduled in December 2021. 3 months is more than enough to get ribs healed/fixed. The both trash talked, then inst it time to settle everything on the ring?

They both survive the match between Mayweather and they are both have experience in ring.

Both? It was Jakes brother, Paul, who fought Mayweather. Jake has experience in the ring? I would not call it a great experience. If this is experience, than I have experience in professional racing, as I have played Need For Speed.
