Conor McGregor Rumoured To Fight KSI Amid Logan Paul’s WWE Obligations
Conor McGregor looked destined to make his return to the boxing ring against Logan Paul later this year in India. However, those plans seem to have changed.
Despite still being under contract with the UFC, McGregor has teased that his next outing could be in the boxing ring as opposed to the cage. It is worth noting that the Irishman has two fights remaining on his UFC deal but has expressed an interest in exploring other opportunities once his time in the octagon comes to an end.
After rumors of McGregor’s proposed clash against Logan Paul were canceled due to Paul’s WWE obligations, another potential fight rumor began circulating. According to a fan page on social media, KSI would welcome the opportunity to step in against Conor McGregor.
What did KSI say about fighting Conor McGregor?
The same was later confirmed by KSI himself. “Not rumored. I’m very down,” the Brit said in response to the news of him stepping in to face Conor McGregor as a possible Logan Paul replacement.
Venturing into many different businesses since his rise to fame, KSI took an interest in the sport of boxing and played a huge role in the surge of influencer boxing. Now, almost six years on from his professional debut in the squared circle, the 31-year-old could lock horns with arguably his toughest test in his career so far. .
McGregor has since responded to the news, only adding more fuel to the fire. After reposting several posts about the potential matchup, McGregor commented on the KSI News fan page. The Wankhede Stadium which holds over 33,000 fans was originally suggested to be the destination for McGregor’s fight against Logan Paul—though no additional information has been released on whether the venue will host the McGregor vs. KSI clash.
