BKFC star shows off Conor McGregor tattoo
Well, thatâs one way to impress your boss.Â
Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship competitor Rayne Wells, who competes Friday evening at BKFC 66 at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida, has immortalised one of the fight leagueâs most famous moments on his skin for all eternity: the moment when BKFC president Dave Feldman and Conor McGregor officially joined forces earlier this year to partner on one of combat sportsâ fastest-growing promotions.

In late April of this year Feldman, who founded the promotion just four years prior, visited McGregorâs Black Forge Inn in Dublin to formalise the deal which would see McGregor become part-owner of the operation.
âI think itâs just going to move the needle tremendously,â Feldman said at the time. âWeâre going to do a lot of big things. Weâre going to open up a lot of new markets.â
The addition of McGregor to the BKFC corridors of power has made the combat sports community sit up and take notice as the organisation seeks to expand, with its debut in Spain set to take place next month in the latest stage of its expansion.

One person who has decided to celebrate the collaboration is BKFC fighter Rayne Wells, who has had an image of the contract signing featuring McGregor and Feldman earlier this year tattooâd on his back.
Wells will show off his new artwork on Friday night when he takes on Kazakhstanâs Almat Jumanov inside the BKFC ring as part of an event which will feature the debut of the former Bellator and Strikeforce stalwart âKing Moâ Lawal.
And if Rayne is looking for some inspiration from the man who is now imprinted on his back, he might be wise to throw one of McGregorâs trademark left hands.
