It appears Conor McGregor has some big career moves planned. The Irishman recently hinted at fighting Nate Diaz in a potential trilogy clash on social media just a day after revealing plans to face Logan Paul in the boxing ring.
Earlier this week, McGregor took to social media to announce that he’s agreed to share the squared circle with Paul for an exhibition fight seemingly arranged by the Ambani family in India. In an X post, he also dismissed the idea of a potential Ilia Topuria fight and wrote:
“The rumors of a bout with topurio [Topuria] are false. I am in preliminary agreements with the Ambani family to face Logan Paul in a boxing exhibition in India. I have agreed. I will then seek my return to the Octagon.”
After sending fans reeling with this announcement, McGregor has now teased a potential trilogy fight against Diaz. In a follow-up X post, ‘The Notorious’ shared a clip of the Stockton slugger’s iconic callout post-fight octagon before their first showdown, and wrote:
