Logan Paul calls out Conor McGregor following devastating UFC 329 injury

Logan Paul is circling Conor McGregor as a potential opponent following the Irish superstar's catastrophic return to the UFC at UFC 329. McGregor's comeback fight against former featherweight champion Max Holloway lasted only 69 seconds before a knee injury suffered on his opening kick forced an end to the bout, leaving McGregor sidelined for surgery and recovery.

During an episode of his "Impaulsive" podcast, Paul discussed the irony of McGregor's predicament, noting the fighter's past criticism of professional wrestling and its stars. "Something I find so funny, he definitely has roasted the WWE and WWE superstars in the past," Paul said. "He put out a tweet dissing Roman Reigns; the Roman Reigns tweet was recently. At the moment, Conor is doing WWE. He is incapable of fighting."

Paul claimed he immediately contacted WWE management following McGregor's defeat, pitching a potential crossover clash. "I texted my boss after Conor lost. I was like, 'Bro, Conor is cooked, do something with it. Make a bag, let me fight him. Big WWE star versus big WWE star, cause that's what he is now,'" Paul recounted. While WWE apparently dismissed the idea, McGregor retains one fight remaining on his UFC contract and has indicated he intends to return following surgery to fulfill his deal.
