Conor McGregor discusses Mike Tyson's interest about his new venture, BKFC

Conor McGregor and Mike Tyson both seem quite enthusiastic about the entertainment that is offered by Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC). An Instagram account known as @maclifesquad posted a photo of the two warriors, enjoying their time in Marbella.

This refers to the Spain-based card that BKFC is promoting for Saturday with a trifecta of title fights topping the event. That Instagram post of Tyson holding a BKFC belt alongside 'The Notorious' would be shared to the IG story of the BKFC's partial owner. The Irish superstar offered up his thoughts on the iconic meeting between the two within that post.

To his Instagram story, Conor McGregor stated:

Notably, Conor McGregor had already posted a picture along with Mike Tyson on his Instagram account.

Conor McGregor's Spain presence and what BKFC has planned for tomorrow

Conor McGregor seems understandably stoked for the historic BKFC event at a bullfighting arena on Oct. 12. It will also be the company's first card within a new broadcast deal with DAZN.

Headlining the fistic fireworks is a vacant lightweight title clash with European champion Franco Tenaglia taking on the number one ranked contender in the weight category, Tony Soto. Someone's 0 has got to go here in this clash of unbeaten BKFC fighters and a new champion at 155 pounds will finally be cemented after prior titleholder Luis Palomino left for welterweight.

In the co-main event of BKFC Spain, decorated gloved boxing champion and former opponent of Canelo Alvarez, Austin Trout will look to make his first welterweight title defense. To do so, he will knuckle up and to the line against Rico Franco who is a former BKB champion and is the number three ranked contender in the division.

The feature fight of the night is another championship affair with David Mundell defending his middleweight belt. The number one pound-for-pound ranked fighter in the promotion looks to keep his crown against the BKFC UK light heavyweight champion Danny Christie.

This BKFC event also features names like Dan Chapman, James Lilley, and Hannah Rankin who are set to throw down at Marbella Arena.
