Conor McGregor is all over this “Baddest Motherf—ker” title fight between rival Nate Diaz and Jorge Masvidal this weekend at UFC 244 and for obvious reason.

McGregor, who despite fighting just once inside of the Octagon in the past three years, is one of the most game opponents in the history of UFC. From taking fights on short notice to moving up two weight classes, “Notorious” easily considers himself the true “BMF” of combat sports, especially considering he went 10 rounds with Floyd Mayweather Jr.

While McGregor is currently rumored to make his comeback this January against Donald Cerrone, there’s a really good chance UFC tells “Cowboy” to hit the bricks in exchange for the winner of Diaz vs. Masvidal. After all, a “BMF” title fight involving McGregor would be absolutely bonkers and a big cash grab that UFC may not be able to pass up heading into 2020.

UFC 244 will go down tomorrow night (Sat., Nov. 2, 2019) live on ESPN+ PPV from inside Madison Square Garden in New York City, with McGregor watching and likely chiming in when the madness concludes.
