JAKE PAUL reckons Conor McGregor against Jorge Masvidal is the ‘right fight to make’ after UFC 272 as they ‘both have weak chins’.
Masvidal suffered defeat to bitter nemesis Colby Covington in Las Vegas, almost a year after being knocked out by UFC champion Kamaru Usman.

We already know Conor can’t finish Diaz
Right fight to make is Masvidoll vs Macgregor. 50/50 fight, ends in KO. Both can throw and both have weak chins
— Jake Paul (@jakepaul) March 6, 2022
The welterweight contender signed a lucrative new UFC contract before the grudge match but his next fight now remains unclear.
YouTuber Paul named McGregor – who was knocked out by Dustin Poirier last year – as the perfect opponent.
It comes amid rumours the Irishman, 33, is in talks for a trilogy bout against Nate Diaz, 36.
Paul, 25, tweeted: “We already know Conor can’t finish Diaz. Right fight to make is Masvidoll vs Macgregor. 50/50 fight, ends in KO.
“Both can throw and both have weak chins.”
Paul, who is 5-0 as a boxer, has called out the two UFC superstars before but looks unlikely to fight either any time soon.
