Conor McGregor wants bare knuckle match against Jeremy Stephens next: ‘Me and ‘who the f*ck”

Former two-weight UFC champion, Conor McGregor has once more staked his claim for a grudge fight with Octagon veteran, Jeremy Stephens next under the banner of the BKFC (Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship) — especially off the back of his decision win over Bobby Taylor over the weekend.

McGregor, a former undisputed lightweight champion and a former undisputed featherweight titleholder, has been sidelined from action for more than three years, the Dubliner most recently fractured his left tibia and fibula in a TKO loss to Dustin Poirier at UFC 264.
