Top analyst predicts Logan Paul will defeat Conor McGregor in potential boxing match

Analysts claim Logan Paul's size and boxing skills could overpower Conor McGregor in a potential bout.

Senior sports analyst predicts that Logan Paul has the upper hand in a potential boxing match against Conor McGregor, citing the Irish MMA star's lack of experience in professional boxing.

"I think Logan Paul is going to beat him," the analyst said, explaining that McGregor’s strength lies in striking, not boxing. He added, “You’re not going to clip Paul with pitter-patter punches. He’s bigger, more experienced, and McGregor’s quickness won’t be enough in a boxing ring.”

The analyst also pointed out the advantage Logan Paul holds in terms of size and experience, emphasizing that McGregor's reliance on speed and striking precision may not translate well to the boxing format. He speculated that unless oversized gloves are used, Logan's strength and strategy could neutralize McGregor's key attributes.

The fight’s potential logistics were validated by sports journalist Ariel Helwani, who noted the feasibility of such a matchup due to the shared ownership of WWE and UFC by TKO Group Holdings. “It’s very easy to get done,” Helwani remarked, addressing the possibility of McGregor, a UFC fighter, facing Paul, a WWE star, in a crossover boxing event.

Fans and experts remain divided on the outcome of the fight. While Logan Paul’s size and boxing experience could give him an edge, McGregor's competitive spirit and quick reflexes could still pose a challenge. The bout, if finalized, would mark McGregor’s return to boxing after his 2017 fight against Floyd Mayweather.
