Conor McGregor's first question that he faced at his very first press conference for Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship was seemingly asked by himself.
"The Notorious" was in attendance at his debut media event since becoming a part owner of the promotion in April as they promoted BKFC heading to Spain on October 12.
The first question that came his way was delivered via an impression of "The Mac" himself as McGregor was asked whether he thinks his former UFC rival Khabib Nurmagomedov could ever make some quick money by competing in BKFC if needed.
There is a well known rat, who owes his b******* off to the Russian government. You know, would you get that man to BKFC if that man needed a dollar or two, you know. He clearly needs the money to pay back the Russian government, the man is a fool of a thing. With bare knuckle, a man versus a man, let it all end there in the coliseum, the Conor-seum. Let's make it happen, that little scurrying rat.
McGregor, who laughed throughout, responded with one of his most iconic press conference lines.
It sounds like I'm talking, who the f*** is that? Who the f*** is that guy?
Conor McGregor Slams Khabib Nurmagomedov Over Financial Reports
After taking a moment to laugh about the impression, McGregor did answer the question to some degree about the former UFC lightweight champion who has recently been in the news over financial issues with the Russian government.
"The Notorious" spoke about how Nurmagomedov walked away from MMA, let alone stepping into bare knuckle which, as McGregor said himself, requires a certain type of person and mindset.
The guy won't even fight, come on. The one thing that really attracts me to this game is these are bad men and women here in this f****** company, for real, these are bad men and women. You've got to be, you're all talking about cutting each other up. A jab splits the skin in this game so the stakes are on another level, the intensity is on another level and again, it's what drew me to this.
The Russian who, he's not even a Russian, he doesn't represent Russia. He owes his b*******, he's gone running. I'd love to fight one of these m************ in bare knuckle but they won't fight so.
McGregor did say during the press conference that with two fights left on his UFC contract, competing in BKFC at a later date is something that he is interested in.
