‘No balls’ Conor McGregor would be 'paranoid' in Jake Paul fight says ex-rival

Paulie Malignaggi believes Conor McGregor would be 'nervous and paranoid' if he took on Jake Paul in an MMA fight.

Since dipping his toe into the World of fighting, Paul has had boxing matches with a number of MMA fighters including Ben Askren, Tyron Woodley and Anderson Silva. He is due to return to the ring in his first fight since losing to Tommy Fury when he takes on Nate Diaz in August.

A fight between Paul and McGregor is something that the social media star is keen on even if McGregor himself has shown little interest in taking on the younger brother of Logan.
