[@jonjones2]

Even though Paul retired from boxing he still fights in the wwe

[@joemoorhouse7631]

The fact he has finally considered this, is just embarassing. There is no way that Dana lets this happens. Its beyond sad for someone who was the most popular fighter and the face of the UFC.

[@jasong.1994]

If he's not gunna really fight UFC Dana should let him at least Dana will get his cut off him

[@skankhunt434]

Popular? You mean the mascot for children and casuals

[@draincatYT]

​@@skankhunt434I get you're trying to be edgy but are you denying his popularity ? 🤔

[@EzraWoodIsCool]

Dana and Logan are in really good relations because of the Prime sponsorship with the UFC. This will purely be a money making event/ppv where the consumer feels scammed and nothing more. If we don't it, we can't tune into anything to do with it.

[@user-bv4fn4hw4w]

to be fair Conor is actually a high level boxer, it's one of his best qualities he wins vs logan absolutely no question

[@noeleenredmond8868]

​@Nathan-vh1He shouldn't be let into any octagon or boxing ring.

[@michaelsmyth6557]

​@@Nathan-vh1rnrelatively was decent....for a MMA fighter 8 years ago. Sad to say but Logan prob wins

[@nyteowl8069]

Dana is not risking his boy getting knocked out by a amatuer boxer 😂😂

[@draincatYT]

Especially not right before signing a deals right lolol he wants to squeeze a fat ass PPV not mythical Conor after losing to a Paul brother. He can win his ufc comeback so why risk it by devaluing in boxing win or lose ? (Cuz the boxing money obv but im saying from ufcs side)

[@Badluckhades]

Logan couldn't knock out Dillon Danis but he's going to knock conor out? lol

[@The_RealDon]

Logan ain’t knocking out nobody😂

[@BigBoyTraks]

Your confusing Logan with Jake. Logan is not even on the same level as Jake as a amatuer boxer.

[@jonjones2]

If Conor murdered someone they will still be talking about what could be his next fight a month later

[@GoodJobBuddy]

Ariel did it again. 😅 Dana is pissed that Ariel ruined another surprise

[@Danny.A.A.]

It wasn’t even Ariel. It was Conor with the tweet lol. Ariel is just analyzing and giving a little theory

[@user-bv4fn4hw4w]

Dana and ariel are cut from the same cloth

[@adamhartley5104]

Ariel is off in left field...

[@Razear]

No way this happens as long as Dana is involved. If Conor ever fights again, he'd obviously want him to compete in MMA. Funniest thing Conor could do is go through with the whole press tour and then pull out during fight week.

[@crazypato3752]

Thoughts on those UFC vs WWE matchups: -Conor McGregor vs Mr. McMahon -El Cucuy vs The Boogeyman -Whittaker vs Undertaker -Mateusz Gamrot vs Steve Blackman

[@mav.7624]

Gamrot vs Blackman is the fight i never knew i needed until now.

[@YearsOVDecay1]

After that joke of a fight with Tyson I don't think anyone cares to watch any more fights of Jake's, with or without Conor. Fool me once shame on you,fool me twice...... I think and hope everyone is truly done with this BS

[@MarioAguayo-k4c]

I hate millennials, and this dumbass potential fight is proof as to why I hate these generations today. Can't stand these Internet personality content creator idiots influencing today's world. It wasn't like this even 10 years ago, and that's because anybody born after 2000 officially became an adult recently. Smh. God I hate today's world.

[@vibhor5015]

So, two of the biggest streaming platform in India are merging in 8.5 Billion Dollar deal. Abanis had 1 and now will have both. My guess is, this event will be used to begin the new combined platform. Or maybe as a check/test event for the cricket tournament. That would be mean before April.

[@joshuarittenhouse4938]

Said it in 2018, Conor's story will be the most tragic story we've ever seen.

[@Festge]

It‘s gonna happen. It‘s the only way Dana can squeeze some cash out of lucky charms. Conor can‘t join a testing pool. He is an addict. So what‘s left is exhibition fights.

[@Airplanefish]

I dont understand why it wouldn't be Jake and Connor? It would bring way more money and eyes to it.

It’s definitely happening. Logan basically works for the same company that owns the ufc. It’s dumb. But it’s happening.

So embarrassing. We hear for like 3 years about Conor’s MMA return and now he’s talking boxing matches again. No one cares about you boxing dude.

[@BuddyRevell3oc]

If it's going to just be an exhibition I don't really see this being big news at all. Logan's too big for Conor in the first place. If you've ever seen McGregor in person he's not a big guy at all. Conor resorting to celebrity or influencer boxing would completely destroy any credibility he has left. Get in the octagon already!

[@dilawar.singh.randhawa]

As an 🇮🇳Indian, let me explain why the Conor vs. Logan match makes sense in India. The Ambanis run the biggest media empire in India and want to launch their own sports season similar to Riyadh season. They've invested heavily in entertainment and sports. Logan Paul recently visited India to launch his drink, knowing it's a huge market. Conor McGregor has also opened businesses such as TIDL in India and partnered with major celebrities there. This fight promotes their brands and brings international attention to the Ambanis' streaming service, while earning them big bucks. Win-win for all.

[@seshank]

The Ambani's get Hollywood/pop music royalty to attend and perform at their private events such as weddings. Celebrities are toys to them. My guess is this is also going to be a private event (probably to announce a new business) and similar to Chael v Silva in terms of a spectacle.
