Former two-weight UFC titleholder, Conor McGregor has once more confirmed he will make a move to the BKFC (Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship) in the near future, as the Dubliner grows increasingly restless amid his absence from the Octagon.
McGregor, a former undisputed lightweight and featherweight champion under the banner of the UFC, has been out of action for more than three years, most recently fracturing his tibia and fibula in a first round doctor’s stoppage TKO loss to Dustin Poirier.
Withdrawing from a scheduled return in the main event of UFC 303 back in June at the welterweight limit, ex-champion, McGregor fractured a toe ahead of an International Fight Week headliner with Michael Chandler, scuppering the pairing.
