The platform's revenue jumped from £277million to a whopping
£4.8BILLION
in 2023 in large part due to the Covid-19
pandemic
.
The company is now valued at just over
SIX BILLION POUNDS

And UFC icon McGregor has claimed he's one of the parties interested in acquiring the platform, which is expected to field multiple offers.

He's turned his attention to promoting during his hiatus, acquiring shares in Bare Knuckle Fighting

in April 2024.
McGregor jumped at the opportunity to become a major shareholder in the promotion, telling SunSport in an exclusive interview: "This is a major player in this industry.
Conor McGregor explains reason for major career changes amid UFC 'plateau' as MMA return remains a mystery
"Bareknuckle Fighting
Championship
is a major, major player in this industry. And it's growing fast.
"And it's got an unbelievable foundation, it's a rock-solid [foundation].
"With the stable of fighters and a stable team, the team around it that's grown it and built it, this is a serious player in the game."
McGregor was set to make his grand return to the cage last June in a long-overdue showdown with rival Ultimate Fighter season 31 coach
But he withdrew from their Sin City showdown with a broken left pinky toe.
The UFC's poster boy recently urged the promotion to put the wheels in motion for his return.
I'm in serious talks to buy this."

But Dana White has pumped the brakes on the prospect of the former two-weight champion returning to the cage anytime soon.
The UFC's President and CEO told Adam Glyn: "He's not fighting anytime soon. I haven't talked to him in a minute.
"But yeah, I don't know when [he'll fight again]."
If McGregor does ever fight again, his
next
outing will be his first since being found civilly liable for assaulting Nikita Hand at a
Dublin
Hotel in December 2018.
The former two-division champion appealed the verdict returned at
Dublin
's High
Court
last November.
He's hoping the introduction of new evidence will overturn the result of the civil trial.

Eamonn Holmes shares 'sad' health decline after falling off chair on live TV
Eamonn Holmes has issued a heartbreaking health update days after falling off his chair live on GB News. The presenter, 65, was also taken to hospital earlier in the month after he had a fall at his home. Sharing his dismay at his current state, Belfast man Eamonn took to social media to share a picture of himself looking healthy and sprightly from just three years ago. The presenter said it "made him sad" to see his decline as he told fans: "I could walk." In a bid to stay positive, Eamonn added: "Got to redouble my efforts." The presenter has been working hard on his rehabilitation after undergoing spinal surgery in 2022 for chronic back pain caused by three slipped discs. Over the last year he has been seen using a walking aid and a wheelchair as his mobility has become effected. Just last week, Eamonn sparked concern from fans when he took a tumble from his seat while presenting the GB News Breakfast show. During his Wednesday show, with his co-host Ellie Costello, a crash could be heard while the camera was focused on their guest, commentator Charlie Rowley, Mirror UK reports. Costello could be heard saying "oh my gosh" off-screen, and Holmes pleaded with Rowley to "carry on" before the presenter returned to the show following a break. Holmes said: "Welcome back. Good to see you again. Especially good for me to see you again. I am still alive, yes. And they're very wonky wheels on chairs that we've got here, and matter of fact, we don't really like the chairs full stop, do we? They're a bit slippy and slidey and I've slipped and slid off mine there. 'Not the first guest to have done so, we've had a few, they have to remain nameless because they're well known people, but they've hit the floor really badly, quite frightening. And it was a bit of a shock for me because I've had a fall in my bathroom two weeks ago, which hospitalised me, and that hit me again right in the back. (I'm) really, really sore. Really sore.' He later said the chair 'gave way' which meant he was lying flat on his back. He added: 'As the morning goes on, you feel aches and pains. The worst thing about this, of course, this was at a time when I was hospitalised two weeks ago for a very similar fall in the same area, back of the head, my neck, my shoulders. So it all came back, as it were.' On X, formerly Twitter, Rowley wrote: '@EamonnHolmes YOU are the real hero for carrying on this morning. A true professional and National Treasure who I learn from each and every week. It's a privilege working with you, @elliecostelloTV and the rest of the @GBNEWS family. Take care!'. On May 2, in an Instagram post that included a photo from the inside of an ambulance, Holmes thanked the crew who had helped him after he fell on his bathroom floor. The former This Morning host has long battled health issues after dislodging discs in his back which he said previously impinged on his sciatic nerve and affected the mobility of his right has spoken about going through spinal surgery, a double hip replacement, and his struggles walking and using a mobility scooter. Last year, Holmes and his wife Ruth Langsford announced their split, after tying the knot in 2010.
