In case you didn’t catch it, on August 12th, McGregor was present at the Joshua vs. Helenius bout. Once Joshua secured the win, McGregor seized the moment to offer his congratulations on Joshua’s victorious performance.

In an unexpected twist, McGregor then directed his attention to KSI, who was among the spectators. Check out the video below.
He stated, “I know your man KSI is in the crowd, yeah? And he couldn’t box eggs if he worked in an egg boxing factory. So if he wants to get in here, I’ll give him a final — bareknuckle if he wants.” Following this, the crowd erupted in anticipation as McGregor openly challenged KSI. However, on the internet the internet criticized him for the unwanted challenge. Here’s how fan reacted.
During that event, McGregor also announced his plans for a comeback, stating that he intends to return in December. His proposed sequence includes facing Michael Chandler first, followed by a match against Justin Gaethje for the BMF title, and eventually a trilogy fight against Nate Diaz.
