Dana White On Conor McGregor vs Logan Paul

Known for his straightforward answers, the UFC boss rubbished the idea of a Conor McGregor vs Logan Paul or a McGregor vs KSI fight.

White expressed that he expects the most famous MMA superstar to his home promotion, UFC, in the fall of 2025.

White claimed that the Irishman would "eventually" be back before adding: "No no [won't fight KSI or Logan Paul]. I'm hoping that Conor McGregor will return in the fall."

Will Conor McGregor Ever Return?

After leaving Michael Chandler in limbo for a considerable period, ultimately backing out from the scheduled UFC 294 fight, Conor McGregor has remained away from the ring. Almost four years have passed since he last stepped foot inside the Octagon, and many believe the world of MMA has already seen the last of the Irishman. McGregor has remained active on social media through and seldom expresses his opinions on fights and also trades shots with prominent fighters every once in a while. However, when it comes to whether he will take the ring route again, nothing is concrete aside from an opaque picture. Therefore, Dana White's hoping Conor McGregor to return this fall, could be seen as a statement made out of optimism rather than facts.
