During the BKFC KnuckleMania 4 broadcast, it was announced Conor McGregor would make a “huge” announcement, and boy oh boy, “Notorious” delivered. In a video package, the former two-division UFC champion announced that he is now part owner of Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC).

“What’s up Knucklemania!” McGregor said. “‘The Notorious’ Conor McGregor here. Ladies and gentlemen, the huge announcement that I have for you today: Conor McGregor, myself, and McGregor Sports and Entertainment is now an owner of Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship. Welcome to the big leagues. David Feldman, baby, we did it.”

The BKFC president did not reveal any details but was ecstatic about the new partnership.

“Look, you’ve got the biggest guy in all of combat sports right now as a part owner of our company,” Feldman said during the BKFC KnuckleMania 4 broadcast. “I think it’s just going to move the needle tremendously. We’re going to do a lot of big things. We’re going to open up a lot of new markets. We’re partners with Conor McGregor. Everybody in the combat sports world, everybody in the world knows who that guy is. So Conor, thank you, and let’s blow this sh-t up.”
During the post-fight press conference, Feldman added, “We’re going to take this motherf—king thing all the way to the top now.”

McGregor has been a fan of BKFC for several years and has helped promote it several times, even showing up at BKFC 41 last year to bring eyeballs to the product. McGregor’s Proper Twelve and Forged Irish Stout have also served as sponsorship partners of the promotion.

I’m sure we will hear more about the ownership in the coming days and months as McGregor prepares for his highly anticipated return later this summer against Michael Chandler at UFC 303.

That’s just disrespectful. Guy is an alcoholic drug addict that hasn’t won a proper fight in years.

Did you only start watching this month when you joined here?

To be fair, Chandy hasn’t won in years either. And he is just happy to get the fight. Eddie Alvarez vibes. Wouldn’t be surprised if he gets sniped early

‘He’s Not Worried About Us…Not Yet’ - David Feldman On Whether Dana White Would Be Upset With Conor McGregor’s BKFC Part Ownership

Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship Founder and President David Feldman is asked if he thinks UFC President Dana White will have a negative reaction to Conor McGregor now holding part ownership in BKFC.

Smart investment.

I don’t see why he would be bothered that combat sports bring more attention to the fighting. There is plenty to go around.

Mike Perry is a goddamned bare knuckle savage.

Like seriously, in a sport where it seems like people rarely put together more than one win at a time, this dude just keeps winning and looking better.

A long time ago, Michael Jordan found basketball, and fucking Mike Perry found bare knuckle boxing.
