Conor McGregor made a bizarre appearance at the BKFC press conference yesterday and fans were left baffled after footage emerged on social media.
The Irishman eventually turned up for an appearance at the BKFC KnuckleMania 5 press conference in Philadelphia as he is a part owner of the bare-knuckle fight promotion
However, the former UFC champion was an HOUR late to the event and addressed the audience in typically blunt fashion.

âSorry Iâm late, I donât give a f*ck,â McGregor exclaimed.
âIâm the big boss around here. Philadelphia, whatâs up? Iâm here to summon the Gods of fighting to action.
âMay they turn our combatantsâ knuckles to knives.
âOn Saturday night, may we all bleed in the honor of Philadelphiaâs rich fighting history. May we as Bare Knuckle Fighting Championships organization, the alien of combat sports, rise above the night sky and rain down blows viciously and prove our worth against any deniers.â

Social media users on X reacted to his behaviour.
One said: âPut this addict in rehab. Bro moving like Kanye.â
Another asked: âWhy is he Breathing so heavy lol?â
A third slammed him: âHe doesnât have the draw or buzz anymore. Heâs just a loud mouth living off of his past success. Still showing up late with no respect for others but thinks âHe ownsâ the momen. Just embarrassing with no humility.â
A fourth replied: âHeâs still drunk as sh*t.â
McGregor hasnât fought in the Octagon since July 2021 when suffered defeat to Dustin Poirier after he broke his leg in the fight.
He was due to return against Michael Chandler last year, but suffered a toe injury and pulled out of the contest.
As each year passes it becomes more and more unlikely that we will see the âNotoriousâ fight again.
He’s nothing but a scum bag
Correction, rapist scumbag đđť
