Conor McGregor was made it clear he plans to fight in the Bare Knuckle Faighting Championship in the future.
McGregor still has two fights left on his deal with the UFC but has a minority ownership stake in BKFC.
The Irishman is a regular presence at their events and does plenty to promote the company.
McGregor took to a recent public BKFC media event and vowed to one day fight for the promotion
‘Yes, the warrior spirit burns inside me. ‘If you think I’m up here giving these speeches and leading these men into battle and I wont step in there myself, think again,’ McGregor declared.
‘For sure, Conor McGregor will fight in Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship. Mark my words.’

McGregor went on to tease potential match-ups with men that he has plenty of history with.
‘There are many bouts, showcase bouts you could say. Michael Perry, Mike Perry. You could say Jeremy Stephens,’ he said.
‘You could say a rematch against Eddie Alvarez. You could say many matches.
‘But the lightweight title, who is the champion right now, lightweight or welterweight? Let’s see. I’m open. We’ll see when it comes.’
McGregor has not fought since breaking his leg in his fight with Dustin Poirier in 2021.
The Dubliner was booked to face Michael Chandler last summer but the bout was cancelled after he broke his toe.
