Conor McGregor Hints Fedor Emelianenko Joins BKFC Soon
At a press conference for BKFC Italy, Conor McGregor hinted at a potential signing of MMA legend Fedor Emelianenko, suggesting that an announcement could be forthcoming. Emelianenko, regarded as one of the greatest heavyweights in combat sports history, has been inactive since his retirement following a loss to Ryan Bader in February 2023. McGregor emphasized the BKFC's aim to attract top fighters from various eras, stating, 'Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship is signing and acquiring the best fighters of all time.' The rumors of Emelianenko's return have sparked excitement among fans, particularly with the possibility of a matchup against current BKFC heavyweight leader Ben Rothwell. While details remain unclear, McGregor's comments have reignited speculation about Emelianenko's future in combat sports. The BKFC, which has been gaining traction by recruiting former UFC stars, could significantly benefit from Emelianenko's involvement.
