Luckily, cooler heads prevailed between Soto and Tenaglia, and McGregor seemed to enjoy the added tensions.

McGregor was supposed to make his MMA return at UFC 303 earlier this year against Michael Chandler. Just weeks before the fight, he withdrew due to a toe injury, and it’s uncertain when/if he’ll return to the cage.

McGregor hasn’t fought since a doctor’s stoppage loss to Dustin Poirier at UFC 264. He’s lost three of his last four MMA fights overall with the lone victory coming against Donald Cerrone in 2020 during that span.

McGregor chose a perfect time to become involved in bare-knuckle fighting and BKFC. The sport has increased in popularity in recent years and has helped turn Mike Perry into a star.

McGregor hasn’t ruled out potentially appearing in the bare-knuckle ring at least once during his combat sports career. He’s targeting a return to the UFC Octagon next year against Chandler or another big-name opponent.

In the meantime, McGregor and David Feldman are in for another eventful evening at BKFC: Spain.
