Last year, McGregor went viral when he made an appearance at BKFC event and faced off against Mike Perry.

During an interview with Ariel Helwani, McGregor said he would love to try out bareknuckle because there’s never a boring fight.
“I would do it, yes, I would! In a heartbeat, I’ll do it. Yes I would do it for sure. It’s hard to get a boring fight…It’s actually almost impossible for a boring fight to happen in it.”
It’s unclear if McGregor will ever fight in the BKFC but now that he’s a part-owner it seems that there’s atleast a chance he could fight in the bareknuckle promotion whenever he’s done with the UFC.
