If you’re Travis Kelce, you might want to stop reading.
In a promotional video for his upcoming Bare Knuckle Fighting event on October 4, Conor McGregor hilariously confused Philadelphia Eagles legend Jason Kelce for being the father Kansas City Chiefs superstar Travis Kelce, who is actually his younger brother.
Conor McGregor has kept busy with his venture into the dangerous world of Bare Knuckle FightingGETTYMcGregor was filming a Q&A video with DAZN and was asked who would make a better Bare Knuckle Fighter between NFL brothers Jason and Travis.
Before answering the question, he tried to clarify who was who, creating an awkward but funny moment.
“Travis Kelce is the football player with Taylor Swift?” McGregor first questioned before asking, “And Jason is his father?”
The interviewer quickly corrected him, informing him that Jason is his brother.
McGregor didn’t end up saying who out of Jason and Travis would make the better fighter.
Instead, he opted for the safe answer and said, “Bring the bros.”
In the same interview, the ‘Notorious’ was asked to blind rank the toughest combat sports, with No.1 being the toughest and No. 6 being the easiest.
Without the ability to change his answers once they come up, he put boxing in at No.2, sumo wrestling at No.3, wrestling at No.4, karate at No.5, and kickboxing at No.6.
Bare Knuckle Fighting came out last, with only one spot remaining on the list – No.1.
“One baby all day,” McGregor said, seemingly happy with his choice.

Next June, the UFC will host a card at The White House to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the United States.
And in an interview with Fox Sports, McGregor confirmed his participation.
“It’s a done deal, signed, delivered,” he said.
”End of negotiations. McGregor will compete in the White House for America’s 250th birthday.“
McGregor’s opponent at The White House, which UFC president Dana White has said comes with a heavy cost, has not been confirmed, but the 37-year-old has previously said he will fight his long-time rival, Michael Chandler.
The Irishman hasn’t fought inside the Octagon since suffering a broken leg in his bout with Dustin Poirier in July 2021.
