Bare-Knuckle Fighter Tai Emery Reflects on Conor McGregor Promise After Topless Celebration Controversy
“In every single email, every single phone call from David Feldman. I literally had to learn how to say, ‘No, I promised David Feldman and Conor McGregor that I wouldn’t flash and I wouldn’t be naughty.’”

She even took it a step further, learning to say this in Japanese to make sure her message was understood. “I knew they’d ask me that,” she explained. “I had to pull that [phrase] out in some of the interviews, and they were impressed.”
Emery understands that her topless celebration is a big part of why people know her, but she wants to be seen as more than that. She’s focused on winning and moving up the ranks in BKFC. “I want the belt. I want what’s mine,” Emery said, clearly motivated. She also has her sights set on exploring other combat sports, including boxing with organizations like RIZIN or Misfits. “I think it’s exciting times for fighters right now,” she added.
Despite the promise she made, Emery still reflects fondly on her past actions. She believes that her celebration wasn’t meant to offend anyone. “Everything is positive, positive, positive,” she said about her infamous celebration. “It wasn’t meant to make anyone feel some type of way negatively. But if that’s what they’re going to feel, then I think they need to have a look at themselves to see why that’s triggering them while someone is up there having a good time.”
Now, Emery is focused on proving herself as a serious competitor. She’s ready to leave the controversial moments behind and show the world that she’s here to fight—and win.
