UFC President Dana White has rejected the possibility of a future exhibition between company superstar Conor McGregor and Youtuber Jake Paul.

Paul, who has a massive social media following, took part in his second professional boxing match last month, as the co-featured pay-per-view attraction to the Mike Tyson vs. Roy Jones exhibition clash.

Paul brutally knocked out NBA veteran Nate Robinson in two rounds.

After that fight, Paul called for an immediate fight with McGregor.

McGregor made his boxing debut in August of 2017, when he was stopped in ten rounds by a returning Floyd Mayweather Jr.

Following that defeat, McGregor went right back to the UFC - but he's often discussed the urge to have more boxing matches.

If he actually takes part in another boxing match, it won't be against Paul, says White.

"[Conor McGregor] is one of the greatest fighters on Earth right now. He shouldn't be fighting kids that have f--king YouTube videos," White told TMZ.

White said there is "zero percent" chance that fight ever happens.

The UFC executive makes it clear that he's not in the business of making these types of encounters - exhibitions or not.

"There's a market for these kinda fights. It's just not what I do," White said.

"There will be a day when Conor McGregor could do these types of fights and make a bunch of money, ... but it ain't happening any time soon."

McGregor is gearing up for his next return to the cage, in the main event of UFC 257 on January 23, in a rematch with Dustin Poirier.

Jake Paul's older brother, Logal Paul, was able to bag a very lucrative opportunity - as he will face Mayweather in an exhibition bout on February 20. That encounter will headline a pay-per-view card.
