Conor McGregor has a blockbuster fight 'on the table' for 2025 and it's even bigger than the rumoured Logan Paul bout.

McGregor hasn't fought since July 2021 when he suffered a TKO defeat to Dustin Poirier at UFC 264.

A welterweight showdown against Michael Chandler was booked for last summer until the Irishman was forced to pull out due to an injury.

However, a return to action could be on the cards, having teased a contest against Logan.

But fresh reports now suggest a fight against Jake Paul is 'on the table' for 2025 in India.

On X, boxing reporter Salvador Rodriguez wrote: "Sources: Jake Paul vs Conor McGregor on the table for July, August or September 2025 in India."

Shortly after the update, McGregor took to X, writing: "TKO."

The post appears to be referencing the parent company that controls both UFC and WWE.

He seems to be suggesting that the UFC may not stand in the way of a potential fight against one of the Paul brothers.

McGregor vs. Jake would be a bigger fight than McGregor vs. Logan considering their fierce rivalry.

'The Problem Child' has relentlessly called out the 'Notorious', having taken on and beaten a series of MMA legends, including Tyron Woodley, Nate Diaz and Anderson Silva.

The 27-year-old is looking for his next opponent following his Netflix super-fight against Mike Tyson, who returned to the world of professional boxing for the contest.

Paul outpointed Tyson in their heavyweight clash last month, prompting a response from McGregor, who didn't hold back on social media.

A potential McGregor vs. Jake match-up would likely be contested under boxing rules.

The former UFC double champion boxed Floyd Mayweather in a money-spinning showdown back in August 2017.

He's been hellbent on returning to the boxing ring ever seen, with a big opportunity thought to be 'on the table' for next year.
