Jake Paul has admitted that Conor McGregor's UFC comeback fight is "massive" despite his ongoing rivalry with the Irishman.
Former two-weight UFC champion McGregor, 34, looks for his first win in over three years when he faces Michael Chandler later this year. The rivals will first coach against each other on series 31 of the UFC's reality TV show, The Ultimate Fighter, and will meet in the cage after the conclusion of the season in August.
McGregor suffered consecutive defeats by Dustin Poirier in his last two fights and has not had his hand raised in the Octagon since knocking out Donald Cerrone in January 2020. Chandler has also gone 1-3 in his last four fights but YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul still thinks the fight between the UFC rivals is a huge deal.
