BKFC is on the hunt for the world\u2019s baddest man, and Conor McGregor is going to help them find him.<\/p>\n
McGregor is a co-owner of BKFC and spent a good amount of his 2025 showing up to the promotion\u2019s events and press conferences to increase their visibility. That won\u2019t be changing in 2026, despite the Mac\u2019s insistence he\u2019ll be fighting at the UFC\u2019s big White House event in June. In addition to training<\/a> for that big comeback, \u201cThe Notorious\u201d will now be filming a docu-series to set up BKFC\u2019s long-awaited World\u2019s Baddest Man Tournament.<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cWe just recently entered into an agreement with Kiss Fly Productions for a docu-series that\u2019s going to start in May of 2026,\u201d BKFC president David Feldman said on Instagram. \u201cIt will kick off the World\u2019s Baddest Man Tournament, a $25 million tournament, the highest prize in any fighting tournament in history.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWe will search the world. We\u2019re going all over the globe to find who will be named the World\u2019s Baddest Man,\u201d he continued. \u201cThe docu-series will follow these fighters throughout the journey. Conor McGregor is going to be the host of the show. It\u2019s going to be an amazing show, and we\u2019re really looking forward to seeing what it has in store for us in 2026.\u201d<\/p>\n Sports docu-series are the new rage these days after Formula 1: Drive to Survive helped blow F1 racing\u2019s popularity into the stratosphere. BKFC could use a bit of that shine. Despite growing rapidly and having a lot of success, it always feels like a few bad gates or big bookings that don\u2019t pay off<\/a> could knock things off kilter.<\/p>\n
