Conor McGregor and Tom Brady are two of the most famous athletes of all time, making the prospect of the pair hosting a BKFC event together, nothing short of mouth-watering.
Having spent years at the top of the UFC and NFL, respectively, the pair undeniably know what it takes to put on a show.

While Conor McGregor hasn’t fought in several years, he’s been making waves in the world of BKFC, promoting significant events, with a spectacle in Marbella, capturing the imagination of the public.
The outdoor event looked truly epic, with the likes of Austin Trout and Franco Tenaglia showcasing their skills under the Spanish sun.
The outdoor extravaganza has inspired a plethora of BKFC fighters, with one desperate to have a similar experience in the UK, by fighting at Birmingham FC’s St Andrew’s Stadium.
The club has risen in fame in the US in recent times, with Tom Brady purchasing shares in the side, with dreams to take the team to the next level.
Connor Tierney, who became the BKFC UK champion in August, is keen to get the ex-UFC champion and the former Super Bowl winner together to put on a truly spectacular fight night.
Replying to a McGregor Instagram post, he said: “You’ve got to come to watch Birmingham city @bcfc with @tombrady next so we can use the stadium as a venue for @bareknucklefc.”

In his magnificent career, McGregor has proven his skills beyond doubt. Alas, in the eyes of a legend, he’s not definitively earned his place on a mythical MMA Mount Rushmore.
