Conor McGregor vows to 'blow Manny Pacquiao's head off' in bare-knuckle fight

Conor McGregor has vowed to blow boxing legend Manny Pacquiao's "head off" in a bare-knuckle boxing fight.

McGregor is currently out of fighting action after breaking his leg in a UFC defeat to Dustin Poirier nearly two years ago, but is expected to return this year in a fight with Michael Chandler. Despite having a hiatus from the octagon, the Irishman has been making his presence known in fighting events around the world including during an appearance at BKFC 41 headlined by Mike Perry and Luke Rockhold.

The 34-year-old has previously fought in the squared circle against Floyd Mayweather having lost in 2017 despite generating huge revenue for the clash. And after hinting he could potentially make a future appearance in bare-knuckle fighting, McGregor produced a new call-out to a fellow legend in combat sports.
