The combat sports community is in awe with the announcement of an upcoming boxing match-up featuring former UFC two-division champion Conor McGregor and WWE star Logan Paul. Conor McGregor’s much-anticipated return to combat sports isn’t going to happen in the Octagon but in the boxing ring. The Notorious updated his fans about the event on his X handle a few weeks back, and then recently, he made it official by posting it on his Instagram handle. The post caught the attention of millions, and the amount that he would get to fight in the exhibition match is mind-boggling $250 million.
The rumors of a bout with topurio are false. I am in preliminary agreements 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.
Combat sports fans were hyped up after the announcement, but according to former UFC fighter Chael Sonnen, it is a complete b.s., and the fight isn’t going to happen. Chael Sonnen didn’t hold back from making bold claims about the boxing match scheduled to happen in India and called all the announcements a “Joke”.
“More people had comment on Connor’s version of which not a single word is true you got to understand Connor is not boxing Jake Paul there is not a billionaire in India looking to bring people over and change tourism that is something exclusively done by a government and that government is done in one place which is in the Middle East and third there’s no check for $250 million so he he kind of went down right down a list of joking he’s kidding you’re not supposed to believe any of that to be true“
