Conor McGregor caused quite a stir at the BKFC press conference yesterday, leaving fans puzzled with his unusual appearance. McGregor, who is known for his grand entrances at fights and press events, made a surprising appearance at the BKFC KnuckleMania 5 press conference in Philadelphia. As a part owner of the bare-knuckle fight promotion, McGregor had hinted at his presence at the event.
However, McGregor kept fans waiting for over an hour before finally making his grand entrance on stage at the Xcite Center. In true McGregor fashion, he addressed the crowd with his signature boldness, declaring, “Sorry I’m late, I don’t give a f*ck. I’m the big boss around here. Philadelphia, what’s up? I’m here to summon the Gods of fighting to action.”
The Irishman went on to deliver a passionate speech, calling for a night of intense fighting and honoring Philadelphia’s rich fighting history. McGregor’s former opponent Eddie Alvarez is scheduled to fight Jeremy Stephens at the upcoming KnuckleMania 5 event, adding an extra layer of intrigue to McGregor’s appearance.
Fans were divided in their reactions to McGregor’s antics, with some criticizing his behavior while others found it entertaining. McGregor’s post-fighting career seems to involve a lot of microphone time, and he certainly knows how to command attention. Love him or hate him, McGregor always manages to spark conversation and excitement wherever he goes.
