A potential matchup between Jake Paul and Conor McGregor is reportedly being considered for 2025. This news comes amidst speculation that McGregor might also engage in a boxing bout with Logan Paul, Jake’s brother. The interest in this crossover event continues to grow within the combat sports community.
Since entering the boxing arena, Jake Paul has consistently challenged Conor McGregor to a fight. The YouTuber-turned-professional boxer has expressed his desire to step into the ring with the UFC icon multiple times.
Initially, McGregor dismissed Jake’s provocations, referring to both him and Logan as “dingbats.” Recently, however, McGregor has escalated his rhetoric, engaging in more personal exchanges and criticisms directed at Jake. He has frequently predicted Jake’s defeats in various fights—most recently siding against him in the bout against Mike Tyson.
Jake vs. Conor: Potential Venue in India
According to a recent report by ESPN Mexico journalist Salvador Rodriguez, the fight between Jake and Conor could take place in July, August, or September of 2025, with India being a potential host country. While specific details about the city or venue remain undisclosed, this intriguing possibility has ignited excitement among fans.

Should Jake Paul and Conor McGregor proceed with their fight, the differences in weight makes it an intriguing proposition. While Jake has been competing in the Cruiserweight and Heavyweight divisions, McGregor has predominantly fought at Featherweight and Lightweight.
In addition, Jake is rumored to be making his debut in the PFL (Professional Fighters League) in 2025. However, should the bout with McGregor come to fruition, it could potentially delay his plans to enter that league.
As fans eagerly await further developments, this saga promises to deliver excitement and drama in the boxing world.
