UFC Star, Who Sent Dustin Poirier to the Shadow Realm, Issues Bare-Knuckle Callout for Conor McGregor

Conor McGregor is arguably one of the most sought fighters in the world of mixed martial arts. After his charismatic appearance at BKFC 41, the Irishman squared off against the BKFC middleweight champion, Mike Perry. Later, at the post-fight press conference, Perry called out McGregor for a fight. However, Perry was not the only fighter who wished to go against the ‘Mystic Mac’. 

Michael Johnson recently took to Twitter and asked David Feldman for money that went on par with the main event. Furthermore, he called out the former UFC double champion for a fight. Nevertheless, the fighter seemed to believe that with big money, he could easily get McGregor to accept the fight. With Perry and Johnson calling out ‘The Notorious’ for a bare-knuckle fight, the Dubliner’s reply seems to be greatly awaited by the entire combat sports community.

He earned the Fight of the Year bonus for his fight against Gaethje. Undeniably, the fighter from Sanford quickly rose high after his debut on TUF 12. 

Nevertheless, Johnson couldn’t help but demand a fight against McGregor in BKFC. He shared a tweet where he asked the BKFC boss for big money. He justified that he goes on to secure wins even after taking steel pipes to the teeth. Furthermore, he called out ‘The Notorious’ for a fight, although he previously refused to ‘wrestle’ with Poirier and step in as a replacement to fight McGregor in 2021.
