Conor McGregor, once UFC's reigning champ, is shifting his focus from the octagon to the boxing ring. He's announced plans to fight YouTuber Logan Paul in India in 2025. McGregor recently lost a civil case alleging rape, which has cast a shadow over his career. He also pulled out of a UFC fight last July due to injury. This boxing match could be a money-maker for McGregor, but fans shouldn't expect a thrilling bout. At his peak, McGregor was a 145-pound champ, while Paul, towering at 6-foot-2, drew with Floyd Mayweather. McGregor also lost to Mayweather in a boxing match. However, setting up this fight outside the UFC might face hurdles, as fighters usually need UFC as a co-promoter. The UFC and McGregor have had a rocky relationship, with McGregor planning to appeal the court verdict and becoming a free agent after his UFC contract ends.
