Through his platform, McGregor has shared updates about this potential matchup. Sources say that hosting such an event could be India’s way of stepping into the spotlight in the world of global sports. Similar strategies have been used by Saudi Arabia, which has hosted major fights to gain international attention.

Although no official announcements have been made, the possibility of McGregor facing Paul in the boxing ring has fans buzzing. If it comes together, this could be a monumental event, not just for the fighters but for the sport itself.
For now, the sports world waits to see if this idea becomes a reality or stays as just another rumor.
