Conor McGregor is an actor now. The UFC lightweight champion (for now at least) hasn’t stepped into the Octagon since November 2016, but the notoriety he gained from a boxing match with Floyd Mayweather Jr. isn’t going to waste. A new Burger King commercial starring McGregor was released today.
In the commercial, which you can view above, McGregor is on a private plane talking up a Spicy Crispy Chicken Sandwich. After some choice words (with one even bleeped out), the BK King walks onto the plane, sandwich in hand. McGregor rips it from his grasp and aggressively bites into it.
