Fans are pleading with Conor McGregor to become the one man to stop Jake Paul in his boxing career after the UFC legend returned to training.
The Irishman is back working on his boxing after suffering a leg break last summer, and will return to full sparring in the coming weeks.
And despite the fact that he has his eyes set on another run to the top of the UFC's lightweight division, supporters have asked McGregor to return to the ring so he can beat Paul for the first time.
He posted a photo to Instagram showing him wearing boxing gloves, which was liked over a million times, and saw a number of fans beg him to put an end to Paul's winning boxing start.
"Day three back boxing without issue!" McGregor said in the post. "Soon this injury will be a distant memory on my martial arts journey.
"No one has a road without bumps - but winning is about a positive attitude and determination and hard work. I am back and only getting better."
And comments generally were supportive of the Irishman, with one saying: "Jake Paul still needs to be stopped, you’re the only person skilled enough.
"Mayweather would get tossed after not being able to beat Logan (the worst of the two brothers)."
Another added: "We can't wait to see you beat Jake Paul."
McGregor has generally tried to stay away from giving the Paul brothers airtime, but he admitted to Mirror Fighting in an interview last month that he's not ruling out a possible fight with Jake down the road.
He took a slight shot at the YouTuber-turned-boxer when he mocked the poor pay-per-view sales for his rematch with Tyron Woodley, before admitting that he doesn't pay attention to that part of the sport.
Asked if he would take a fight with Paul, McGregor responded "who knows? Never say never."

"I wasn't actually watching it," McGregor said of the Paul vs Woodley fight, which ended in a brutal knockout for the social media star to go 5-0 at professional.
"It only did a couple of thousand buys, I didn't actually watch it I saw it online so no I didn't see it.
"I don't pay attention to that stuff."
Fans are excited for McGregor to get back into the octagon after almost a year out, with one even believing that he will get his wish of an immediate fight for the belt.
"Title shot incoming and nobody will do anything about it," they said.
But not all are convinced, with another writing: "You'd better figure out how to avoid getting choked out almost every time you've lost.
"You also need to figure out how to move as quickly as you did in the lower weight classes.
"The times you've been hit by opponents, not known for their striking, and how it rattled you, is a detriment."
