The combat sports world is buzzing with the latest news that a highly anticipated boxing match between Conor McGregor and Logan Paul is reportedly in the works for April 2025. According to industry insiders, the UFC is actively involved in the negotiations, signaling a significant development in the potential bout.
Conor McGregor, known as “The Notorious,” has been out of action since his leg break against Dustin Poirier at UFC 264 in July 2021. Despite multiple attempts to make a comeback, injuries and controversies have kept him sidelined. However, recent reports suggest that McGregor is eager to return to the ring, and a fight against Logan Paul could be the perfect opportunity.
Logan Paul, the social media star turned professional boxer, has been vocal about his desire to face McGregor for years. The potential bout is rumored to take place at Mumbai’s iconic Wankhede Stadium as part of India’s “Visit India” tourism campaign. The event is expected to be one of the most lucrative in combat sports history, with both fighters set to earn approximately $250 million.
Will UFC Allow Conor McGregor to Fight Logan Paul
The UFC’s involvement in the negotiations is particularly noteworthy, as UFC President Dana White has historically been selective about allowing contracted fighters to compete in crossover bouts. However, with both McGregor and Paul expressing strong interest in the fight, it seems that all parties are working towards making it happen.
As the negotiations progress, fans are eagerly awaiting official confirmation of the fight booking. A McGregor vs. Paul bout would undoubtedly be a major event, drawing attention from around the world and potentially breaking pay-per-view records.
