Accusing McGregor of consuming cocaine, Paul said the UFC superstar was playing "tough guy" in front of Facchinetti. The YouTuber also challenged McGregor to confront him if they ever cross paths.

Jake Paul has always been relentless with his callouts of Conor McGregor. Clamoring for a boxing match with him since last year, Paul has produced multiple foul-mouthed rants against the Irishman.

McGregor, however, has paid no heed to Paul. Still, the former Disney actor believes he will share the boxing ring with the UFC star in the future.

Paul is 4-0 as a professional boxer. His last fight was against former UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley. In the entertaining eight-round contest, Paul walked away victorious via split decision.

Conor McGregor sued by Francesco Facchinetti

Conor McGregor allegedly punched Italian DJ Francesco Facchinetti at a nightclub in Rome on Sunday morning. The 41-year-old DJ claimed he was randomly attacked by the former two-division UFC champ without any provocation from his side.

Facchinetti said he would take the matter to court since McGregor could have hurt his wife, kids or other friends. The Irishman's apparent punch left him with a bloody nose and a cut inside his lip.

"I took a punch for nothing. That punch could go to anyone. My friends, my wife or other friends. That’s why I decided to sue Conor McGregor because he is a violent and dangerous person," Facchinetti said on Instagram (h/t Leggo).

McGregor was in Rome for his third child's baptism at St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City. He has yet to officially comment on the incident.

The 33-year-old is currently recovering from the leg break he suffered at UFC 264. Although not expected to return until 2022, McGregor has promised to participate in a wheelchair boxing match later this year for a charitable cause.
