Will Conor McGregor fight for BKFC?
Conor McGregor hasn’t fought since breaking his leg at UFC 264 in July 2021.
Since then, he’s been constantly talking up his eagerly anticipated return to MMA.
However, things changed recently when he made a UFC retirement admission after rejected a fight offer.
The MMA legend claimed to be focused on his political career amid talk of a campaign to become the president of Ireland.
Still, McGregor promises that he will make his surprise debut for BFKC in the not-too-distant future.
“One of these days, you’ll just hear my music come onto this stage in Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship, and I’ll have my fist wrapped with no gloves for a fight, out of nowhere,” he said in January.
“No promotion. No promo. No nothing. Just fighting a random fight on the card. That could be what the future holds.”
