Conor McGregor expressed a desire to face Logan Paul in an exhibition boxing match in India, but the UFC blocked the request, labeling the matchup a 'glorified spar.' Despite Paul's initial interest, he has now shifted focus to his wrestling career. McGregor emphasized the business feasibility of the fight amid a significant market growth in India and mutual interests of the UFC and WWE under TKO Group Holdings. Previously, McGregor had participated in a boxing match against Floyd Mayweather in 2017 after receiving UFC approval, showcasing a contrasting situation.
