Judging from the club footage, McGregor appeared to be enjoying the music and the atmosphere while staying focused and sober, performing his role as a co-owner of BKFC rather than training for a fight. This past Friday, BKFC hosted BKFC 85 at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida. Many fans believe the footage of Conor McGregor came either from that event or from his pub in Ireland,  The Black Forge Inn, which Mike Tyson visited last week.

At UFC 323, during the post-fight press conference, White officially confirmed that heavyweight star Derrick Lewis is locked in for the event, as he is one of Donald Trump’s favorites. Meanwhile, Conor McGregor’s coach, John Kavanagh, revealed that McGregor is all in and ready to make his return to the Octagon next year.

“On our end, we’re 100% in,” Kavanagh said on ‘The Ariel Helwani Show.’ “He’s asked me to basically lay out a program between now and June of how we’ll ramp up the training. He’s showing up again. He’s back in the gym most mornings, early. He’s just having fun with it… Like I said, if it’s Conor’s choice, he’s in. I don’t know how it will work with the UFC.”

McGregor recently echoed his coach’s words, revealing that after the UFC White House, he might target a fight against 170-pound kingpin Islam Makhachev. Do you think Conor McGregor could convince the UFC to give him that shot? Share your prediction below.
