I voted no although the majority think it can happen, Paul will agree, but I doubt if Connor will agree, he will be advised to just go for UFC and not a boxing match, he is good in MMA and has only fought once on boxing while Jake Paul all matches are in boxing that makes him experienced between the two and besides he has something to settle against Poirier, their last fight ended in a freak accident, so the result is not decisive.

I also voted no, though majority went for yes, first, I must admit that am not really up to date with the happenings in UFC, but based on the story, I personally think Connor is being over confident in himself, he should atleast allow himself heal properly from his leg injury which he sustained from his fight against Dustin Poirier, then like the @aioc said, he should settle with Poirier first, before he proceeds to challenging Paul, usman, whoever.
This is just my personal opinion.

Maybe he would do the inverse thing that he would go after with Paul,Usman etc. and lastly he would have a comeback for Poirier but lets see on what would be their plans and i would say that this is

much more worth for them to put focus on rather than on taking their shitty time on making out some arrangements on that exhibition against Jake.They are just basically nonsense if you do ask me,
if they are intently on buying some time for healing process then this wont really be an ideal kind of arrangement.

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?

Logically the fights Conor McGregor should look forward is the Nate Diaz rematch and after that if Nick Diaz comes back then he can fight against him if he is able to defeat Nate Diaz in the trilogy and all of these fights will be a huge success in terms of the numbers and the money earned. If he fights against Jake Paul which is a much heavier fighter there is no way Conor McGregor would stand a chance against him and another proposal of fighting against Kamaru Usman who will be a nightmare fight for Conor McGreor as he will be humiliated.

Different fights benefit the fighter with basic fighting skills that one of them has, I don't agree with Jake Paul vs Connor in the boxing ring or vice versa, they should aim for a matched opponent with the same ability and in the same ring. Of course, the audience had wanted the exhibition fight to be nothing but empty wins and making millions of money for the fighter. However whether Connor will challenge Poire again, which will be the 4th UFC fight even though Connor won will score 2-2 for all fights in both head-to-head history.

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.

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

Exhibition matches aren't really for everyone. Some prefer professional boxing matches than that because they want to see the raw fight of strength of both boxers. The energy and effort exerted in games that are for a title carries so much in them rather than in exhibition matches that mostly are just arranged and happens because of money.

If the people would demand an exhibition match of the two, then their fight could possibly happen. Otherwise, it won't because audience demand matters too. After all, the ones behind the arrangement should profit too. Let's see whether if this would occur. Although I must say that Jake Paul is really popular when it comes to exhibition matches.

As far as I know, Conor McGregor has already started training and he believes that in time he will completely forget this injury. I think the fight with Jake Paul may well take place, because in boxing fight the load on his leg is not as strong as in the UFC fight. In my opinion this fight could be the first one after the injury.

He has been training with weights already a solid period of time. He is already training on boxing pads. During recovery, he has gained some weight and told that would like to fight Kamaru Usmas, former welterweight champion, this summer. Dana White told that "their fight looks interesting". But I feel like he is preparing to fight Nate Diaz for the third time, then he would ever fight Jake Paul.

Leg movement in boxing is also important. Load on the legs are huge, because punch power comes from the legs and body swing. Quadriceps, biggest body muscle must be trained hard, to increase fighters endurance. The difference between MMA and boxing - you wont hurt your legs during fight Cheesy

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.

I'm not sure that this is true. There is no point in trusting the words of Connor McGregor - he is a well-known braggart and could easily inflate the real figure by 10 times. The difference between 700 and 150 million is huge. If he has 150 million then it's very different than if he had 700, because considering the cost of maintaining celebrity status, 150 million is not that much because some celebrity houses are more expensive. In any case, I think that even with a billion, he would not refuse to "easily" earn another 50 million.

If the offer is right then there's no way Connor wouldn't accept it. He only fights for the money and no longer represents his country proudly. On the other hand, Jake Paul only wants to maintain his record and would surely try to pay the right amount in order to cement his 'legacy'.

Neither of these guys are legit boxers, but Jake Paul has the reach and size advantage overall, but doesn't have the stamina to back it up. If this is an actual fight, McGregor has a huge chance to win. But this is a clown fest, so safe to bet on Jake Paul if you want to win some quick bucks.

Both of them fight for money, that's a sure thing.

However, we still want to see who is the better between these two fighters and sure the fans would love to see them fight in a boxing match. Connor showed his boxing skills when he fought Mayweather, it's just that Mayweather is too good for him, but for Jake Paul, I think Connor has a decent chance of winning.

Jake Paul is in a winning run he'll like to sustain it by fighting whoever wants to fight and Connor is a good candidate to be the next victim, we've seen how Connor fight, he is easy to knock out because he easily gets tired and once he gets tired like what happened to Woodley he'll go for a killer punch and knock Connor Mcgregor out if Connor wants money this is a fight to make if he wants legacy better look for another opponent.
But I believe this fight will happen everybody goes where the money is and they can stage it to make it a draw.

Logan is taller and bigger I don't think Connor can just go closer and beat Logan easily, it could be the other way around because Logan is not an idiot that will just stand. This is boxing, I can see jabs will keep Connor at a distance from Logan while ready charge if Connor attempts to get closer. I also doubt Connor will have swift footwork these days due to his injury, the heavier he is the more strength he wastes in maneuvering.

You forgot just one little thing - Conor has been training as fighter since 2008, and spent last 10 years training professionally. While Logan has only 2 fights, Conor has 28. This is a huge gap in experience. Not to mentioned that Conor, in a fight against Floyd Mayweather, did not look like a punching bag. A professional fighter is always better than a newbie. No matter how old this fighter is, and what kind of injuries he has got.

Logan and jabs. Logan is not even close to being Vladimir Klitschko, who can jab people to death. Logans jab did not help him against Floyd, why would it work against younger Conor?

Base on your poll question i can say it's possible for entertainment only and of course the money that they can make from such event will be the first reason IMO. because surely it's will be the most interesting fight and it's not surprising if there's a lot of people will vote to that fight since jake paul already have experienced with a ufc fighter which is woodley and he literally KO that man. Cheesy

so against McGregor for sure will be the next most interesting fight on his career..

Certainly this fight will be for reputation. Paul has had a lot of negative things to say about McGregor. Conor will therefore need to show his prowess and punish the offender. Conor has a lot more experience in such fights than Paul. I think that if the fight takes place at all, McGregor will win to prove that he is the best. And if a loss happens, his reputation will fade.

Fame is definitely the reason for this fight, but I think no one doubts that the main reason for both Poul Logan and Conor McGregor want this fight is money.
I wonder if this fight will be even recorded in any rank.

They are both fighting for money and to keep their fame in the industry, Mc Gregor is so despirate in riviving his reputation back after the last defeat from Khabib, Gregor said he wanted to fight Kamoru, he's just gonna murder himself, i believe that a fight with jake is the best for him, it might not be a really intresting fight to watch though but a suprised could be pulled out of the fight

You might be confused with the subject. It's Jake Paul and not Logan Paul.

If we apply technical analysis to this fight, Jake Paul being taller and bigger is not an advantage if the catchweight is not in his comfort zone. Remember that Jake Paul is used to fighting over 190lbs. According to some news, looks like he will go down to I think 175lbs (correct me if I'm wrong) just to fight McGregor. It will take a toll on Jake's body if he will force himself to fight on that weight. It's not easy to maintain while McGregor is just playing smoothly on his comfort weight.

Moving forward, let's see if this fight will really push. It's more possible for me to think that McGregor's return will be in Octagon, not in a boxing ring.

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.

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).

I am also of the same opinion that doesn't matter if they will fight or not because there is lot of drama going between so when it will actually seems to be coming into reality then something could be discussed upon and until then have lot of things to enjoy on.

The leg recovery is important because even in boxing the movements are dependent on how stable you could stand and if he is struggling for resistance then it's hard to win.

There's no problem for Jake Paul to accept the fight he wants big names in the UFC to be added to his who he knocks out list and Connor is one great addition, he loves fighting UFC fighters because he know they perform worse in boxing, the question is will Connor accept the challenge it's 50/50, it's on Connor if he wants to accept the fight but he should prefer fighting Poirier than Jake Paul, he has a better chance against Poirier than Paul.

I want to see this fight if there will be no rig negotiation between them but it won't happen because we already know what's the result if McGregor uses his 100% skill. He will just beat Jake Paul in the first round with his powerful punches. Honestly, if that is the case, this fight will gather huge money in a pay-per-view platform. But since we already saw his last fight, Jake Paul might try to pour huge money on the table for McGregor to take his bait.

Logan is taller and bigger I don't think Connor can just go closer and beat Logan easily, it could be the other way around because Logan is not an idiot that will just stand. This is boxing, I can see jabs will keep Connor at a distance from Logan while ready charge if Connor attempts to get closer. I also doubt Connor will have swift footwork these days due to his injury, the heavier he is the more strength he wastes in maneuvering.

Connor has a dieing career already so he'll gonna get much money as possible. Paddy the Baddy is taking over and he knows it. It's the money that will need to be discussed between them if they really will pursue to entertain us.
