Jake Paul has inserted himself into the latest social media feet from Conor McGregor.
The former UFC champion with double weight supported Paul Hughes before, during and after his controversial majority decision against Bellator Lightweight title holder Usman Nurmagomedov.
Conor McGregor, however, reacted furiously when visual material demonstrated that his Irish countryman had a friendly conversation with Khabib Nurmagomedov, who has been the bitter rival of the UFC legend for years.
A mostly one -sided words war between McGregor and Hughes has since played on social media.

Jake Paul responds to Conor McGregor vs Paul Hughes Beef
Just after Israel Adesanya was eliminated by Nassourdine Imavov in UFC Saudi Aarabia, Jake Paul went to X – formerly known as Twitter – to throw a excavation to McGregor, while at the same time sending a message from support to Hughes.
“Conor is the largest UFC hunter of all time, we must admit that,” he tweeted.
“But you also have to admit that he is absolutely not a leader and cannot build the next man.
“Which hunter did he help and really pushed? Even making shots with a young Irish star on the rise …
“Paul, you will have a big battle / event in Dublin that approaches you. I am sure Ireland will appear and you will shower with the appreciation you deserve. Class act you are. “

Paul's comments come only a few days after he shared images of his recent meeting with McGregor.
The comeback opponent of Mike Tyson asked 'Notorious' 'Notorious' about a potential boxing fight of $ 500 million exhibition with his brother, Logan Paul, who has not fought since he has recorded a disqualification profit on McGregor's teammate, Dillon Danis, in October 2023.
Dana White comments about the return of Conor McGregor
It is almost four years since McGregor broke his leg during the UFC 264 Main Event in July 2021.
UFC boss Dana White has previously closed the conversation about his biggest star fight Logan Paul or KSI.
“No,” White replied when he was asked if McGregor Paul would fight during an appearance on the Pardon My Take Podcast.
“No, no, no,” White added when the prospect of McGregor vs KSI was raised.
“Hopefully Conor McGregor will return in the fall of this year.”
White seemed less certain about McGregor's Fighting Future in the immediate aftermath of UFC Saudi Arabia.
“I'm not sure when Conor will be back,” Wite admitted.
Only the time will learn whether Fight -Fans will ever see McGregor return to the UFC Octagon.
