Conor McGregor got in on the action following a heated BKFC Spain face-off.

Lightweights Franco Tenaglia and Tony Soto clash in the main event of Saturday’s BKFC event in Marbella, Spain, with a vacant title on the line, but it’s McGregor who stole the headlines Friday. As Tenaglia and Soto nearly came to blows onstage at the ceremonial weigh-ins, “The Notorious” stepped in to break up the potential brawl.

Watch video of the incident below.

McGregor, the former two-division UFC champion who became part-owner of BKFC this past April, looked to be having the time of his life as he inserted himself in between the scrapping fighters, helping to quickly defuse the situation.

Seeing gold on the table, McGregor couldn’t help but raise the lightweight title over his head, cackling gleefully as he showed it off to those in attendance.

Saturday’s BKFC event airs live on DAZN from Marbella Arena in Marbella, Spain. Two other title fights are set to take place, with 165-pound champion Austin Trout defending against Rico Franco, and 175-pound champion David Mundell fighting Danny Christie.

Sidelined since July 2021, McGregor awaits his next UFC booking after an injury forced him to withdraw from a grudge match against Michael Chandler scheduled for UFC this past June.
