A potential boxing fight between Jake Paul and Conor McGregor has been talked up massively by the American’s former sparring partner Anthony Taylor.
Paul has made a name for himself since becoming a professional fighter and has undoubtedly shaken up the sport. The YouTuber-turned-boxer has won six fights from six, with his latest coming against UFC stalwart Anderson Silva earlier this month.
Has Jake Paul fought Conor McGregor?
Conor McGregor has seemingly ruled out a future fight with Jake Paul by insisting he “couldn’t care less” about crossover boxing.
McGregor, 34, was recently called out by YouTuber KSI on Twitter ahead of his fight with the UFC star’s teammate, Dillon Danis, next month. KSI looks to maintain his unbeaten record in the ring by welcoming Danis in the talented grappler’s boxing debut, with the six-round fight taking place at Wembley Arena in London
KSI warned McGregor that Danis will take “serious damage” in their fight, but McGregor fired back by mocking the Brit for his gaming career. “I’m sorry but I’m about to do some serious damage to your boy,” KSI wrote, to which McGregor replied: “Brother you’re a friendly little nerd I don’t care.
Just minutes later, McGregor backtracked on his comments by joking that he would take part in crossover boxing if there were belts on the line. “Conor will defo fight in that genre of boxing he doesn’t care. In 5-6 years,” one fan wrote as McGregor replied: “Ah go on then, will there be belts? Hahahah”
