Jake Paul has slowly become a constant in boxing headlines. The YouTuber-turned-boxer is either making the front pages for his eccentric and unrealistic call-outs, his antics outside the ring, or his performances inside. And now, he could come face-to-face with one of his biggest targets, Conor McGregor.

For years, Jake Paul has called out Conor McGregor for a boxing match. ‘The Problem Child’ has promised that it would be a record-breaking event and he would knock out the Irishman. However, McGregor has rarely even acknowledged him, and the only time he did, ‘The Notorious’ shut down any hope of a fight happening.

Jake Paul to meet Conor McGregor – Here’s how
Despite their verbal battle, Paul has never had the opportunity to challenge the Irishman in person. While he managed to get face-to-face with Floyd Mayweather, meeting McGregor has been difficult. However, that could change this weekend.
According to reports, both Jake Paul and Conor McGregor will be in attendance at the Misfits Prime Card. Happy Punch took to social media to break the news when they posted it on X. Moreover, they also confirmed that both fighters will be ringside.
The Misfits Prime Card will feature Paul’s brother, Logan, taking on McGregor’s former training partner Dillon Danis. The event will happen on Saturday, October 14, at the Manchester Arena in the UK. Therefore, both Jake Paul and Conor McGregor will be there to support their fighter.
But the real winners of this news could be the fans. Both Jake Paul and McGregor are eccentric characters. They never shy away from the limelight and making a scene. In addition, the build-up and trash-talk heading into the Danis vs Logan Paul fight will only add fuel to the fire.
Therefore, it is highly likely that we will see Conor McGregor come face-to-face with Jake Paul at the Misfits Prime Card. While it is unlikely that it will be another brawl like when Paul tried to troll Mayweather, we can definitely expect some drama from the two.
