If not for the money then what will be the motivating factor for Conor to get back into the ring and fight Jake Paul?

This is just an exhibition match and nothing will add value to his legacy if he is concern about that. But we will see, Floyd has a lot of money but goes back fighting exhibition, maybe it's the limelight to get back and be talk about again by the boxing community.

With all the talk about Jake Paul trying to find a new opponent and Conor McGregor leaving the door open for it to actually happen...  Do you think they'll meet up in the boxing ring at some point?  Conor has made it clear that his intent is to try and fight in the UFC for a belt, and is targeting a fight with Kamaru Usman for the 170lb belt this year.  Then there's talk of Diaz and Poirier rematches...  Personally, I think making a boxing comeback and getting some money isn't the worst idea if he were to go after Jake Paul first.  That would give his leg more time to heal.  However, if he lost to Jake Paul in boxing, that would seemingly be the end of his career.  With Jake having so much size on him, I'm not sure if that's the gamble I'd make so long as UFC title fights were still available.  What do you think?

Conor McGregor wants title fight against Kamaru Usman in 'late summer' return to Octagon

Maybe in a years time, when McGregor has used up all his hype(which is frankly, dying) and he's not getting any title or contender shots in the UFC. He'd fight Jake Paul. Income wise, it might be a good decision to fight Jake but, if he wants to keep his UFC career and legacy going. He will have to get back to UFC asap.

Who cares?  They're both fake boxers.

If he do really intent on letting his legs to heal then this wont really be a good idea or gamble.He would neither make his entire popularity be lost if he would be beaten up by Jake.
But well as the poll given then i dont really care on this two whether they would meet up on ring or not but speaking of money then i wont really cross out the
possibility.

Once they throw some trash talk soon, it will escalate and none of them will ever stop to get there in the ring. These two are louder than a nagging wife that can shout 247 without a camera in front of them. Money is money and both of them can generate a lot even just trash talking. Doesn't even matter who'll win.

I don't see any reason for this not to happen but this could change also if Dana decides to give him a title shot against Usman.

Depends on the contact.

McGregor surely understands that he will just bring the name of Jake Paul and will yield easy money for this guy without any effort. But with the busy schedule of McGregor looking at his timeline, I think no room for any chances that he will face Jake Paul unless other parties will be involved and push the fight officially.

Right now, I'm not seeing any chances. Jake Paul admits he is willing to go down at 170lbs just to fight McGregor. That is something risky for a true boxer and what I'm seeing is, he is just attracted to the money disregarding the risks of doing a weight loss. No reputation nor title for him to risk that's why he just decide simply.

The Paul Brothers were always attention seekers, already they're popular in some platform. What they're doing is destructing the real value of UFC. For popularity stunt they keep on making exhibition matches and makes money. In other sports it isn't possible to get in and make money. Here they've got the easy access and the same is being properly used by the Paul Brothers. Nothing offensive, but Connor fighting against Jake Paul might bring good sum of money but it will lower his profile for sure.

There's huge money to be made if he fights Jake Paul but it's a big risk that would be three in a row if he losses again, Connor cannot afford to lose again his career right now is hanging because of the three losses he doesn't need a Jake Paul fight if he wants to get back on top all the other fights are also not good a Kamaru fight will be a disaster Poirier has proven he is a better fighter but a fourth match is still attractive, it's really up to Connor if he wants money he can go to Paul and end his career but had huge money to sustain him.

I don't know why there's a reason to create another thread for the same topic that had been deleted days ago, OgNasty  Huh. It had 63 replies and the main thread was already deleted, maybe I guess due to being off topic with gambling nor had any context on whom to gamble at all. But now this new thread had a poll on who to choose and bet, yet still don't know whats the point of re-making it. To those who just bumped onto this, feel free to just read the deleted post, some might repost their takes as well. Undecided

Thread was archived here -- Jake Paul vs Conor McGregor - https://ninjastic.space/topic/5389892

This continues to be in the news and with Conor making more recent comments about his future fight choices I came back here to see what people had to say.  I couldn't find the thread, even with a search for it.  I didn't get any notification that a thread had been deleted so I had no idea what happened or if maybe me posting it was some dream I had, living out a fantasy of posting on bitcointalk.  That led me to do the only sane thing I could do, try to turn my dreams into reality.  I guess that's the reason for creating "another" thread about this.  Had I been notified that the thread broke some rule or wasn't wanted here (from the high rate of discussion it seems to be something people want) then I wouldn't continue to harp on the subject. 

That being said, I'd like to see this fight and would probably throw a few bucks on Jake if he was the underdog.

100% it's nothing more than a show and there's not much point in worrying about whether it will take place or not. I'm not even sure that I would like to watch this show online, maybe after the event I'll watch the highlights (if there are any at all hahahaha).
As for the recovery of his legs, I don’t think that a boxing show match will somehow interfere with this. After all, they don't use their legs in boxing (i mean punches).
As Hydrogen pointed above about Conor's net worth then its true that i dont see a reason for him to fight Jake Paul for some money and it would really be
more sensible if he would rather focus on getting some belts which is more better and worthy for him to look on rather wasting his time with some lousy
exhibition match and its clear as day that Paul brothers as usual are really trying to tie up themselves with famous and known athletes on particular
sports since they know that they could make big bucks but it wont be effective this time.

Conor McGregor wants title fight against Kamaru Usman in 'late summer' return to Octagon

I like how you've worded the poll Smiley It seems slightly unfair towards McGregor however, because even after all the lame trash talking he does, at least he has been on the scene for a while long and has a fair few more fights under his belt. It seems like this fight would be a big one, at least in terms of money that people would be willing to put forward to host it. We've seen places like the UAE or Saudi Arabia willing to put up tens of millions, if not hundreds of millions, in order to host some of these "huge" fights in the past as a way of buying favor in the world. Saudi is flush with cash (like always) so they could easily engineer it if they thought it might appeal to a big enough audience, however it still feels like Jake Paul is just that fake streamer cross over poser - even if he has fought a bit.

This is the reason Conor vs Jake Paul won't happen.

Conor McGregor boasts whiskey sale is worth $700 million as his net worth soars

Conor McGregor has claimed the sale of whiskey brand Proper 12 will end up being worth over $500million.

McGregor became the world's richest athlete when he sold his company, which he launched in 2018, for $150m, but he says that the deal will ultimately net a profit of as much as $700m.

Speaking with News.com.au, the Irishman explained that he has been abstaining from drinking Proper 12 since losing to Dustin Poirier in their rematch in January, not even raising a toast to celebrate the sale in April.

"I am in a great place in body and mind, I'm taking my health very seriously," McGregor said.

"I haven't touched the most delicious Irish whiskey on the planet Proper 12 at all this camp, I haven't actually touched it since we re-upped the deal.

"It's upwards of $700m that deal is worth over the coming years and I haven't celebrated with a glass yet because I was in camp so I stayed focused."

https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/other-sports/mma/conor-mcgregor-boasts-whiskey-sale-24490832

Conor is worth nearly $1 billion and doesn't need money. He doesn't need the payday from fighting Jake Paul.

It is clear that what motivates Conor now is UFC gold. He wants to fight a belt holder and win a title.

Jake Paul has nothing to offer him.

I have the feeling that this will push thru if in case both promoters will see the demand of this exhibition fight.
If there will be a huge bidder for this fight to happen, I guess these 2 will be up for it.

For sure there will be a huge demand for this fight, after all Conor can still bring fans to the arena and PPV, although he has retired already (semi), he can make a comeback and still make a lot of money. Plus networks will be interested as well because of profits.

And then the part of the promotion, trash-talking. Both have history of being a trash talker, Conor even fought one of the biggest of them all, Floyd Mayweather, so this is not a territory that Conor is not familiar with.
As for fighting Mayweather in the past then i dont see even 1% chance on beating him up and when it comes to trashtalks then it doesnt work all the time but for marketing or hyping things up then it does work

and we know on how Conor does really market out his fight with those shitty trashtalks but well he does have a name on how he do make things but if this fight happens between Jake then i dont see for him

to be beaten down though and its interesting on how these two trashtalks to each other.  Cheesy

in terms of them making money it would be a good move because it will attract attention from many people, but talking about betting on this type of fights I particularly don't bet my money on it, because they are fights where they, no matter how hard they try, notice that it's not their area and it is difficult to analyze the fight to determine who will be the winner of the fight, that's why I don't bet on these types of fights

To be honest, who the hell is Jake Paul and his relevance in boxing?

good question, nowadays marketing makes even a guy without much experience in the fighting world become a "legend" or famous

It sounds weirds, but I am tired of all these trilogy, revenge, second fight against same opponent, second chance, true winner and etc fight. Let Conor and this kid make a fight. Their trash talk is going to be hilarious and epic. There are only one reason why Conor would accept this fight, and promotors not going to organize it. Conor not feel like he is short of money to make this useless exhibition fight. Promotors dont have enough money to pay both fighters, while they earn a little (last Jake Paul fight has sold not as many PPV as they expected).

I definitely feel you. These exhibition fights are totally appalling in a way that they do not show the true spirit of boxing. While I do understand that this will be very profitable in a business perspective, but this will not be as enjoyable compared to two genuine boxers fight each other in the ring.

To be honest, who the hell is Jake Paul and his relevance in boxing? While McGregor has experience in UFC and has fought Mayweather in an exhibition fight before, he at least has experience on how to step-up in the ring. This just goes to show on how boxing has been portrayed in the current timeline- which is unfortunate to witness.

I don't even understand the point of them fighting or the point of Jake offering 50 million, stalking him on Instagram and then talking with his team as well, its honestly something that I would avoid completely. Even if the chances are that Jake Paul would try and give him more money to not beat him up at the boxing ring but then again whatever is happening is more like WWE and less like UFC at the moment.

How many followers does Jake Paul has ? He did do a lot of weird things at his time and therefore he got condemned for that publicly i think he is just trying to make a stunt perse to somehow keep the audience entertained but then again I do not consider him a professional fighter.

Conor can also test himself inside the ring before going for the real UFC belt.
So if they can get good following and support, I believe this fight will happen.
If they start throwing trash talks more frequently, means, they are hyping up the possible match.
