The world of combat sports recently witnessed an unexpected alliance…
As BKFC president David Feldman announced a groundbreaking partnership with none other than Conor McGregor!
McGregor revealed via video that he, along with his McGregor Sports and Entertainment promotion, has joined forces as a co-owner of BKFC.
Feldman expressed his excitement about teaming up with the UFC’s biggest star:
He’s now an owner of BKFC with us and we’re going to take this motherf*cking thing all the way to the top now.
But how did this partnership come to be?
Feldman explains:
He came to our event — in two days it will be a year [ago] — in Denver.
He jumped in the ring, he called out Mike Perry in fun, and one thing led to another.
We partnered with his beer, for his Irish stout, and they became a sponsor of us.He fell in love with this.
The conversations got better and better:
We had some unbelievable conversations, some great ideas already exchanging.
It was funny, I was telling my wife: “I was dying for Conor McGregor to call me and now the guy won’t stop calling me.”
It’s unbelievable.But he is so excited about this thing.
I really think it takes it to the next level.
It’ll be interesting to see how BKFC improves with Conor McGregor…
And what they have in mind!
