Jake Paul vs Conor McGregor

[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.

The amount of money he would make is bigger is x2 of the amount of money he made in his last fight in the UFC.
As per report. https://www.sportskeeda.com/mma/news-how-much-conor-mcgregor-make-last-fight-ufc-264

Conor McGregor reportedly pocketed a whopping $23,011,000 for his UFC 264 main event loss to Dustin Poirier.

And this fight (boxing) would be easier for him as for sure he won't get injured like what happened to him in his last fight in the UFC.

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.

Survived what? Jake Paul never had any encounter with Floyd Mayweather and he said before, he won't chase the Hall of Famer.

It's Logan Paul who fought Mayweather and there's no winner because it's just an exhibition match.

I also don't consider Jake Paul having an advantage on the boxing ring. He only fought a few matches up to this date. Conor McGregor, even only fighting once knows how boxing should be. McGregor can defeat Jake Paul even on the boxing ring, much ahead if it's on Octagon.

As for me, Jake is only making noise in this field but he lacks experience so Mcgregor would really be the one who would have an edge here. It's all about business after all and if Jake would pick to fight a famous boxer, it will also benefit him as well as his career so no wonder why his promoter is trying to pursue this fight.

Regardless of his stance and chance of winning against Conor.

These two brothers are just going to make a match because of money, there's no other reason for them to have a fight that will put them into popularity because they're great fighters.

No, they're going to have these fights because they're making huge bucks from these and this is the niche that they've understood for which they'll be making huge profit from organizing and challenging known names, whether they'd be boxers or UFC fighters.

[Fatunad]

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.

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.

Switch off career? I dont think that he would do that considering that he do able to be on his pinnacle on this sport and switching off would be surely not on his mind, for some exhibition then it
might be yes but total switch up then it would be a no. Interest does really differ into each individual which it isnt really surprising that there are exhibitions been done, it was
actually understandable on that pandemic period but now we are almost come back to normal then its better to back in track.

Everyone would like to watch a game that's mainly for entertainment. A fight is still a fight even it's not a professional one. These days, what important is the entertainment of everyone and they've seen that it's a factor where they can capitalize and monetize from it.
Spending millions just for a fight and for the talent fee of their challenger will rake them more than 5x or 10x from the capital that they've spent for. So, we're going to see the same matches as this countless from Jake and Logan.

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.

Agree. McGregor is already a decommissioned fighter in the sense of professional sports or some kind of records. He already has bad statistics of fights (too many defeats) and, of course, he entered into history, but not as an athlete, but rather as a showman. So let him keep doing what he's good at and not go back to professional sports where he's more likely to fail.

Not still bad for a stats but if he would completely lose on professional fights in a row then its just common sense that he would jump off into other
sports and simply make money with that.Its not actually that surprising anymore.

Even if he fails, he can make a lot of money from this and just like on his previous matches, its all about of the money regardless of the result. This match may possible to happen if both parties agrees with the terms, we know McGregor will fight even if this is not his forte as long as he get paid well here, same thing with Jake Paul.

I think Jake Paul's camp are the one who offered the money for Connor, therefore the approval should only come from Connor and we will see this fight happening if he approves. The offer based on the previous post is very huge, we are talking of $50 million USD here, so I think that amount is hard to resist knowing Connor doesn't make that much in his previous MMA fight.

Most probably a match that will favor Jake Paul, and with that money Connor should accept it since he already have this kind of match before, and yeah it mat ruin your reputation but at least you have the money, this is more like a business now. I didn’t expect intense fight between this two, this is just about money and fame most probably.

22/28= 78% winrate. Not even close to legendary performance, is it? For example, Nurmagomedov has 29-0. And all the dominant athletes from other sports like boxing has the better stats when they were in their prime. McGregor is a great showman and an average athlete, nothing more.

Even if he fails, he can make a lot of money from this and just like on his previous matches, its all about of the money regardless of the result.

This is a debatable issue of benefit. If he now suffers a series of defeats, then his name will finally go out and he will not be able to earn on it in the future, such as Roy Johnson Jr. Therefore, I do not know what solution will be financially beneficial.

Jake Paul already have a previous deals like this, that’s why he keeps on winning and now if they challenge McGregor and offering him a money, we can expect this like a fixed match. McGregor is already rich but that money can’t be decline easily, I think this match will push through and many will still watch and have some bet here.

He fixed the fight, right?

Well, he who controls and offers the money will have to demand something from the fight after all he would spend for it and would give an opportunity to Mcgregor. It'd be understandable to ask and make it appear as if he is winning.  Just like the Mayweather fight, it will be a non scored bout so it will not be on the bookmakers.  It's still entertaining though.

Indeed that is huge for a exhibition fight like this, but who knows, maybe he will demand more because Conor knows that he can still bring sits in any stadium and the PPV numbers are going to be very big as well.

So it boils down as to how the money will be split, it could be in favor of Conor here as he will be the A-side and he is well known around the world as compare to Jake Paul who just rises up in popularity because of him being a Youtube sensation and then moving to exhibition fights.

No one really knows , and I just want Him to decide for other option since he already showed everything in octagon while in Boxing He had limited action so why not extend his effort in other field when there is also an opportunity knocking in his doorsteps?
but who cares what he had to decide lol, all we have here is Wish and Hope because in the end of the day? it is them that will choose what path they wanted to go.

You should better look only on his stats during UFC career, as the level of his opponents is lower compared to UFC. He is 10-4 in UFC. Not bad, also consider that he would probably loose his next fight. But does not look to be called the greatest.

I think he would earn more with his name or future brand, then from any future fight in UFC. He has sold his share in Proper 12 whiskey for 600kk. That is more than he has earned during his fighting career.

His record is already just number. His achievement as former featherweight and lightweight double-champion what matter most especially the legacy he left in UFC during his prime. He is very good to on creating a a scene on all of his match for marketing purposes. Although he is known for being arrogant during pre fight, He is still good in terms fighting inside the Octagon, He is just too cocky sometimes that intentionally gives the enemy an opening just to taunt them which is the common reason why he lost on his matches.

[MinMan]

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.

Obviously Paul will agree because his specialty is boxing but I see that the other guy already have an experience in boxing and by that, a boxing match can be possible. A UFC match is unlikely to happen for now because op said that the leg of Connor was still injured but in boxing I think it still involves some leg movements right? It will still be the same then. No matter what he will choose (boxing or UFC) his ability to win is still slim but how do we know if we don't try? Win or lose, at least he show to the world that he have a gut to fight and he is versatile.

I voted for a yes in the poll but I am curious about the third choice, why will the op say that both boxers are fake? when one is said to be pro boxer.

That's what fans to see that why he keep portraying that role to become more interesting to fans and can able to sell his fight but its undeniable that he's really good which give huge respect on the sports he in.

But for seeing those offers given to him provably he will grab it knowing that he's career is on sunset and that is his chance to grab another huge money before he will not get any fights in future.
