Conor McGregor names the next opponent he wants to fight against – and this could surprise UFC fans

Conor McGregor launched a shocking challenge to the kickboxer destroyed by Floyd Mayweather in two minutes.

Undefeated, Tenshin Nasukawa was in tears after being dropped three times in the first round of New Year's Eve in Tokyo.

American Mayweather received $ 9 million for the exhibition session, which will remain one of the easiest pay days of his illustrious career.

And now, the Irishman McGregor wants a share of the action.

The UFC fighter will learn this month his fate of the Nevada State Sports Commission while he and Khabib Nurmagomedov are awaiting retribution for the shameful scenes that stained their match last October.

It seems that McGregor wants a revenge against the Russian who has submitted with a strangling in the back – while Nurmagomedov is fighting a fight with the former enemy of the fighter of Dublin, Mayweather.

Mayweather beat McGregor in his boxing bout in August 2017, when the two-time UFC champion would have celebrated a payday of 170 million pounds despite his defeat.

After watching Mayweather do a bit of work on the 20-year-old Japanese kickboxer, McGregor made a splash with the American public Nasakawa for an MMA fight before this summer.

"I want to go to Tokyo to face Tenshin Nasukawa as part of an exhibition dedicated to mixed martial arts," McGregor said in a message posted on Twitter.

"Before this summer, please, arrange, this instnt … Sincerely, Champion champion."

McGregor, 30, trains seriously in the gym before his highly anticipated return.

His next opponent has not yet been announced, but he should be fighting before this spring.

Last week, McGregor celebrated the arrival of his second child after his partner Dee Devlin gave birth to their baby daughter, whom they called Croia.

McGregor shared a photo leaving the Coombe Women & Infants University Hospital in Dublin carrying the newborn baby home, standing proudly alongside his son, Toddler Conor Jnr.
