When you throw the Nelk Boys into the mix with Conor McGregor, things start to get really interesting. The YouTubers’ close friendship with Dana White has its perks, like VIP access to the UFC’s biggest stars. And now Conor McGregor himself has joined the madness. In a wild twist, one of the Nelk Boys even tried to sneak McGregor’s belt out of the Black Forge Inn.

Conor McGregor confesses his inner feelings about combat sports return

It is been more than three years since the former UFC double champ fought inside the Octagon. Conor McGregor was supposed to fight back at UFC 303; however, ‘Mystic Mac’ pulled out of the fight due to his toe injury, and since then, there has been looming uncertainty about his comeback. Having a conversation at the BKFC 70 presser, McGregor emphasized that he might fight under BKFC before competing under the UFC banner.

“I’d do very good [in the BKFC]. My accuracy is final. I’m very accurate and I’ve got big lunch boxes as well, big sledgehammers are there for fists. So, you know, I’d be confident in it for sure. Would I be putting weapons in my back pocket? Yes. I’m looking at the lightweight fighters there today. [BKFC champion Luis] Palomino ‘The Baboon’ and HD [BKFC star Howard Davis], their stance is a wee bit fancy,” said Conor McGregor.

McGregor fighting under the BKFC banner would undoubtedly raise the stock of the David Feldman-led promotion and enhance the portfolio value of the former UFC champion. It makes sense on both sides, but the real question is, when will he fight again? What are your thoughts on the hubbub? State your opinion in the comments below.
