Fight fans reacted to the clip on X formerly Twitter.
One said about McGregor: ‘Yeah he’s never fighting again’.
Another added: ‘McGregor is just living his best life and the best thing to happen to BKFC since Perry.’
A third commented: ‘Conor has made @bareknucklefc boom!’
A fourth replied: ‘Great strike!! And a beer with the boss!’
‘The Notorious’ hasn’t fought since 2021 when he suffered a leg break against Dustin Poirier in their trilogy fight.
He was scheduled to face Michael Chandler earlier in the year but had to pull out of the fight due to a broken toe.
Chandler has finally given up on the fight and will now rematch Charles Oliveira.
This has left the Irishman without an opponent for his return although recently he has hinted that he has finally got a fight date with a potential return against Dan Hooker on February 1st in Saudi Arabia.
