Video – Fans react to Conor McGregor’s bizarre speech at BKFC

Fans have once more called into question a potential end-of-year return to the UFC for Conor McGregor following his appearance at a BKFC (Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship) event in South Dakota – with the Dubliner shotgunning a Forged Irish Stout inside the ring.

McGregor, who struck a partnership with the David Feldman-led bare knuckle fighting promotion earlier this year, featured on stage in Marbella, Spain last month – promoting the organization’s outing in Spain later this year.
