Jake Paul Vs Conor McGregor Crossover Fight Could Happen
According to Fox News' latest report, Audie Attar and his team are preparing for the return of Conor McGregor to the octagon this coming 2024.
But, while there's no specific date yet for their plan, Attar said that they are looking at options for fights that could happen before McGregor's comeback.
He explained that the MMA fighter is currently having some issues getting back his confidence. This is why it is important for them to let him fight some opponents before he possibly fights with Michael Chandler.
After Chandler, they are hoping that the next match of McGregor will be another UFC opponent. But, Attar clarified that they are also okay with another massive crossover match, especially against someone McGregor has beef with.
Based on Attar's comment, he is talking about Jake Paul. This was confirmed by the Paradigm Sports CEO after he was asked if they are considering having a fight with Jake Paul in the octagon.
"I think anything's always possible. You never say never. It's all about how things line up. I think the challenge with combat sports is looking that far ahead," said Audie.
"You never say never. Getting back into the octagon is step one, going in and handling business there. Then, not looking past that, but then, obviously, when you get past that, look at your options and see what's next," he added.
