Logan Paul teased fans with a simple social media post after Conor McGregor announced the pair were in talks for a boxing match.
This morning McGregor wrote on X that he has agreed to meet older brother Paul in the ring next year and that 'tentative arrangements' were being made for the event. Bloody Elbow sources have indicated that Paul's team is also in legitimate discussions.
The fight, which would be financed by the ultra-rich Ambani family, would take place in India. Now Paul has taken to Instagram to send the shortest messages to fans who have been waiting all day for his response.
Conor McGregor announces he has agreed for Logan Paul to fight
Yesterday, rumors began in the MMA world that Conor McGregor's return to the octagon would be against featherweight champion Ilia Topuria. This followed a statement from Dana White at Saturday's UFC Tampa press conference that he had begun talks about a stunning surprise fight in 2025.
However, the controversial Irishman has dismissed claims he is in talks to fight the Spaniard next year. Instead, he shockingly revealed he has entered into “tentative agreements” to fight Logan Paul in his first professional boxing match since a 2017 effort against Floyd Mayweather.
“The rumors of a fight with Topuria are false,” he wrote on X in a post that has been viewed more than 3 million times. “I have made preliminary arrangements with the Ambani family to meet Logan Paul at a boxing exhibition in India. I agreed. I will then seek my return to the Octagon.”
Logan Paul posts for the first time since Conor McGregor's fight deal
When McGregor made his first tweet, there was a lot of speculation among fans that he may have been referring to Logan's younger brother Jake Paul, who is considered a more serious boxer. Logan defeated Danis in a farcical Misfits Boxing bout last year and had previously never won in three tries.

But it turns out that there are in fact serious talks going on about the fight, and that WWE star Logan, the physically largest of the brothers, will be involved. In a short post to fans tonight, he simply shared a photo of him and McGregor, along with a repost of the tweet.
He then added a two-eye emoji, indicating that there might be something to what was said, or at least that he finds the discussion interesting.
