Conor McGregor & Logan Paul are all set to come to India

Conor McGregor’s highly awaited boxing battle against Logan Paul is not yet official, but both stars are expected to earn an astounding $250 million.

‘The Notorious’ revealed his prospective comeback to combat sports in a social media post. The UFC star has announced intentions to confront the YouTube superstar in an exhibition boxing battle next year.

The announcement surprised the combat sports community, given McGregor had been missing from competition in previous years.

Despite still having a UFC contract, McGregor has not fought in nearly four years. Despite persistent talk regarding his return, no formal fights have been confirmed, leading fans to wonder if he’ll ever participate again.

Mumbai is abuzz with rumors of a high-stakes boxing match between Irish MMA superstar Conor McGregor and YouTuber-turned-boxer Logan Paul. According to reports, the tournament might take place in India’s financial capital, marking a watershed moment for the country’s combat sports.

Logan Paul’s fantasy matchup versus McGregor comes only weeks after his brother Jake faced Mike Tyson in a boxing contest in November.

Mumbai’s nomination as a prospective destination has heightened my curiosity. Traditionally, boxing super fights are held in global hotspots such as Las Vegas and London. However, Mumbai’s burgeoning status as a sports and entertainment powerhouse may have swung the odds in its favor.
