JAKE PAUL dropped a cryptic message after Conor McGregor's press conference with Michael Chandler was cancelled.
The rivals were due to come face-to-face in Ireland on Monday, June 3 only three weeks out from their proposed UFC 303 bout.
But on the day of the scheduled press conference it was axed, leading to concern over the fight itself.
YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul - after his controversial clash against Mike Tyson was postponed - was quick to speak out.
He posted on X: "People keep asking me about Conor McGregor / UFC 303 Obviously, I know a lot about it, but I’m not going to talk about it publicly.
"For the first time probably ever in my life, I have no comment on something.

"That’s their world, and you know, they get p****d at me every time I talk about that stuff.
"Good for them and they’ll figure it out."
Eagle-eyed fans noticed it was a carbon copy of a quote from UFC boss Dana White when probed about Paul's cancelled fight with Tyson.
White had said: "Obviously I know a lot about it but I'm not going to talk about it publicly.

Inside McGregor's Notorious lifestyle

With more sides to his personality than an Octagon, Conor McGregor's rise has been an enthralling watch.
Going from UFC icon to entrepreneur and Hollywood star, the Irishman has transcended the sport he helped bring to the masses.
He has four children with fiancee Dee Devlin and the family enjoy a lavish lifestyle.
McGregor has not fought in UFC since breaking his leg in a trilogy fight with Dustin Poirier in 2021.
That has not stopped him amassing a net worth of over £150m thanks to his Proper No Twelve whiskey and fashion line.
And he is due to return to the Octagon at UFC 303 in an eagerly-awaited headline clash with Michael Chandler.
McGregor also starred alongside Jake Gyllenhaal in the Amazon Prime remake of classic movie Road House, although he is dreading his mum seeing one X-rated scene.
Notorious turned up to the premiere in a £60,000 suit that was outdone by his £460k watch.
The only thing sharper than his fashion sense is his tongue and the Dubliner has several bitter spats under his belt, including with UFC legend Khabib Nurmagomedov.
That row led to one of his biggest controversies in 2018 as he travelled 3,000 miles to confront Khabib in a vicious attack on his bus.
He pleaded guilty to assault after punching a man in a pub in 2018 and had his £150k Bentley seized by police for driving offences four years later.
Joe Rogan lashed out at McGregor in a four-letter outburst and the Irishman has also fired shots at Jake Paul, KSI and Tommy Fury.
Boxing great Floyd Mayweather also has McGregor on his enemy list after the pair clashed in a cross-sport bout in 2017.

"For the first time probably ever in all my life, I have no comment on something.
"That's Mike's world and he gets p***** every time I talk about that stuff so. Good for him, they'll figure it out."
Currently, McGregor's fight with Chandler remains on despite the UFC deleting promotional videos and the pay-per-view going off the market.
Meanwhile, Paul's bout with Tyson is set to be rescheduled for the final quarter of 2024.
Iron Mike suffered an ulcer flare up when boarding a flight and has been urged by doctors to stop training and instead rest.
