UFC megastar Conor McGregor recently teased the signing of former five-time Irish national boxing champion Sinead Kavanagh to the BKFC.
Kavanagh currently competes in the featherweight division of Bellator. She has a professional MMA record of 9-7 and suffered a second-round submission defeat in her last outing against Arlene Blencowe.
On the other hand, McGregor has not competed in the UFC since his leg-break incident during his trilogy bout against Dustin Poirier at UFC 264 in 2021. With a 2024 bout against Michael Chandler falling through, he has now shifted focus to BKFC and his political ambitions.
'The Notorious' shared an Instagram story, where he hinted at the potential signing of Kavanagh to BKFC, and showcased a video of 'KO' hitting the pads. He wrote:

Conor McGregor shares heartfelt message to Virat Kohli for Test cricket retirement
Conor McGregor shared an Instagram story, wishing cricket legend Virat Kohli a happy retirement. McGregor partnered with the Indian cricketer for a business venture involving the 'TIDL' product, which is a recovery spray/gel.
