Jake Paul has been trying to goad Conor McGregor into a fight for a minute now.
He even tried to get Conor's Irish up by getting a chain that memorized McGregor's brutal knockout at the hands of Dustin Poirier.
In an interview with MMA Fighter, Paul claimed he is inching toward getting in the wrong with the former MMA champ.

"He’s a businessman, I’m a businessman, and that’s $75 to $100 million dollars for both of us."

"For sure. I think for me fighting a couple more times. Continuing to knock people out and he has to get active again. Who knows when that's going to happen. So I think those two things need to happen. Then at some point, it's got to happen. Why not? He's a businessman. I'm a businessman and that’s $75 to $100 million dollars for both of us," Paul said.
When Conor saw the interview, he dismissed little Jake.
"you've 2 fights and done 70K buys," Conor mocked. "You're a flop kid. A nobody."
Bluster aside, do you think a fight is inevitable?
And do you think if this drags on long enough Paul would have a chance if it's boxing?
