Conor McGregor rides bus with Paul brothers to Donald Trump inauguration

Conor McGregor, Jake Paul, and Logan Paul formed an unlikely trio heading into Monday's presidential inauguration.

Donald Trump—the 45th President of the United States of America and soon to be 47th after winning this past November's election—is set for his second inauguration ceremony and plenty of celebrities are expected to be in attendance, including several from the combat sports world.

On his social media, Jake Paul posted a picture of himself with brother Logan and McGregor on a bus headed to the ceremony. Check out the post below.

The image marks a meeting of three of the most polarizing figures in combat sports today.

McGregor, a former two-division UFC champion and part owner of Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship, hasn't always been kind to the Paul brothers, but it appears they've buried the hatchet for now. It likely helps that McGregor has been openly campaigning for a boxing bout with Logan, claiming that they are in talks to fight in Mumbai at an event promoted by India's billionaire Ambani family.

Though Logan and McGregor work for different organizations, Logan with WWE and McGregor with UFC, both of those entities exist under the TKO banner, which has only fueled rumors that their boxing bout could be more than just talk.

UFC CEO Dana White has said McGregor vs. Paul will not happen.

As for McGregor and Jake Paul, the two have discussed fighting one another, especially in the wake of Paul's massively successful fight with boxing legend Mike Tyson. Following that November event, Paul called for McGregor to face him in an openweight MMA bout.

For one day at least, it appears all three are on the same page as they travel together to celebrate Trump's inauguration.

White is also in attendance to support Trump, a man he has frequently praised and called a friend over the years. He shared a picture of himself alongside Trump and Joe Rogan on his Instagram Stories.
