Storm brewing back in the MMA world? Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship has made a name for itself recently and they might be making their biggest move yet. The promotion despite being new has achieved tremendous success and seems like the UFC has eyes on them as well. The founder and CEO of BKFC met the UFC head honcho, Dana White for an ‘important meeting’.

The timing couldn’t be more perfect as UFC 300 is coming up. So is something going on between the CEOs of two of the biggest fighting promotions in the world? Let us dig in and find out.

Dana White and David Feldman pose after a ‘Big Meeting’

The MMA community wants to oil up Dana White (jokingly of course), however, White is busy oiling up his relationship with the bigshots of the industry. The UFC 300 main event is yet to be decided by the UFC head honcho and the patience of the community is wearing thin. Amid this quizzical quagmire, Dana White met the CEO of BKFC, David Feldman. The latter shared a social media a post about a big meeting with White.

But why? The timing could not be better as UFC 300 is coming and Dana White wants to make it a blockbuster. Mike Perry was the common factor between both promotions and the rise of Perry as a dominant fighter happened after he left UFC and joined BKFC. Is there something in the works there?

But there is also another thing that David Feldman wants from the UFC – Conor McGregor. The Irish star had expressed interest in trying his hand at the sport after an appearance at one of their events last year.

With that in mind, Feldman is optimistic about McGregor’s fight under the BKFC banner. While having a conversation with The Sun, Feldman revealed his plans.

Conor McGregor in BKFC?

While having an interview session with The Sun, Feldman explained that McGregor has already fought Floyd Mayweather outside his contract and the possibility of this happening is 100 %. “Look, theoretically he can’t because he’s under contract with the UFC and we actually have a great relationship with the UFC,” Feldman told The Sun.

He further added, “But I think Conor plays by a different set of rules anyway. Maybe there’s a way to partner on an event, who knows? But as far as us doing it by ourselves, I don’t think that ever happens. But maybe a collaboration? It could happen. He likes it.”
