Logan Paul has revealed what offer WWE would have to make for him to turn down a blockbuster clash with Conor McGregor in India.
The American YouTuber turned fighter is currently contracted to the wrestling company, though he has not featured since August since losing is United States Championship to LA Knight.
However reports emerged towards the end of last year that the 29-year-old was set to face off with the UFC legend in the boxing ring.
And in a recent video uploaded to Paul’s YouTube channel, the WWE star revealed that for him to turn down the fight, he would require the company’s president Nick Khan to match the fee he is reportedly set to receive.
‘If Conor McGregor wants to fight, we are running it. I mean, bro it’s an epic fight,’ Paul said.

Paul claimed that WWE president Nick Khan would ave to offer him $250million to stay
Conor McGregor’s comeback has long been anticipated and it will reportedly come in a boxing bout with Paul in India
‘$250million (£205m), I’ve got to take that. If Nick Khan matches that, I’ll stay in the WWE.’
The fight is thought to be taking place in Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium, which can seat as many as 33,100 fans.
Meanwhile, McGregor’s comeback has long been anticipated and he was slated to fight against Michael Chandler last year before he was forced to pull out after suffering an injury in training.
But the 36-year-old is still contracted to UFC and the organisation’s president and CEO, Dana White, suggested this will prevent McGregor making his comeback as a boxer.
‘Eventually,’ White told the Pardon My Take podcast when asked if McGregor would fight in the UFC in 2025.
‘No no (he won’t fight KSI or Logan Paul]. Hopefully Conor McGregor returns in the fall.’
