Conor McGregor reacts after hijacking mic from David Feldman to demand 2x pay for BKFC Spain headliners

Conor McGregor recently gave his thoughts on taking the mic away from David Feldman and expressing his desire to double the compensation for two fighters who headlined BKFC Spain. In addition, McGregor lauded Franco Tenaglia and Tony Soto's performances.

BKFC Spain took place this past Saturday at the Marbella Arena in Spain. The main event was a contest between Tenaglia and Soto for the vacant BKFC lightweight title. Both fighters gave their all as it was an all-out war and in the end, Tenaglia got his hand raised by a majority decision.

McGregor, who was present at the event, interrupted Feldman, who was midway through his post-fight address about offering fight bonuses for the first time in the organization's history. After watching the two combatants' remarkable performance, the Irishman asked that their payout be doubled, saying:

''No, no, no, no, listen...What we are going to do for these gentlemen, as well as a bonus, is double their purse. They are getting double pay! That’s damn straight!''
