Jake Paul responds to Conor McGregor calling out his fight against Mike Tyson

Jake Paul has responded to Conor McGregor after he called out his upcoming bout with Mike Tyson.

Paul and Tyson are set to toe-to-toe inside the ring on November 15 with the fight taking place at Arlington's AT&T Stadium, the home of the NFL's Dallas Cowboys.

McGregor recently stressed his displeasure on the matter, ridiculing the pair on social media.

Paul has since responded by mimicking the Irishman in a separate post on X, formerly known as Twitter.

"Conor Mcgregors crash out needs to be studied," wrote the 27-year-old online.

The video, which has been viewed over 700,000 times already, then followed up with another post soon after.

“And for the record I would destroy this guy in the ring or in the cage. Keep begging for your date hahaha.”

McGregor has been inactive since 2021 and was scheduled to fight Michael Chandler but was forced to pull out through injury.

The Irish UFC star has since confirmed that he won’t return until next year, as he takes further time away from the spot.

He said: "It'll be 2025. My opponent that I had scheduled, Chandler, has got matched [with former UFC lightweight champion Charles Oliveira in November]."

He added: "My job is just to go to the gym, be in the gym, be in shape and one thing is for sure, whenever it is and wherever it is, I will be 100 percent ready. That's all I can focus on right now."

McGregor was also asked what could come after his MMA endeavours, adding: "I don't even know. I don't think no one in the space knows."

"I'm the highest generating fighter on planet Earth right now, in today's space. And what happens [when] I'm a free agent? I'm not so sure.

"I'd like it [McGregor’s next fight] to be Chandler. I'd like to get that squared away, I wish him well against Oliveira, but let's see how it goes."

Paul has in the past hit out McGregor too, stating how he feels 36-year-old is scared to fight him.

"So he can talk all the f*** he wants, but The Notorious MMA is scared of Jake Joseph Paul from Disney Channel. And I put that on my mama."
