Conor McGregor claims to have agreed to a boxing match with WWE Superstar Logan Paul

A WWE vs. UFC crossover fight, but under a different set of rules?

Former two-division UFC champion Conor McGregor took to his personal X account on Tuesday and said he has agreed to box former WWE United States champion Logan Paul in India.

“The rumors of a fight with top purio are false,” McGregor said above. “I am in tentative arrangements with the Ambani family to face Logan Paul in a boxing exhibition in India. I have agreed. I will then seek my return to the Octagon.”

Neither a date nor a location was revealed by McGregor. The Takedown has reached out to WWE for comment, but has not received one at the time of writing.

Paul has not been seen on WWE television since losing the US title to LA Knight at SummerSlam on August 3rd in Cleveland. Meanwhile, Paul and his fiancée, model Nina Agdal, welcomed a baby girl at the end of September. Last week on his podcast ImPaulsive, Paul claimed that he is retiring from WWE.

“I’m retired,” Paul said. “I am father, brother.”

McGregor was the first UFC fighter ever to hold two world titles simultaneously when he knocked out Jose Aldo at UFC 194 to win the featherweight belt and then knocked out Eddie Alvarez at UFC 205 to capture the lightweight belt.

The Irish native has not fought since a TKO loss to Dustin Poirier in July 2021 when he suffered a horrific broken leg. He was scheduled to return to fight Michael Chandler at UFC 303 in June, but he suffered an injured foot.
