Conor McGregor Looking To Add A 3rd Belt To His Collection, Issues Challenge For Nicest MF’er Title

Former two division UFC champion Conor McGregor is back in the Octagon at UFC 246, facing Donald Cerrone in the main event of the evening.

Welterweight contender Stephen Thompson recently appeared on Ariel Helwani’s MMA Show and host Ariel Helwani presented Thompson with the Nicest MF’er Title belt:

McGregor, who seemingly always has title aspirations in mind, would take to Twitter to jokingly challenge Thompson for the newly awarded title:

That belt is mine in 2020 motherbuddies!

It should be noted that Thompson has already defended the Nicest MF’er Title the same amount of times that McGregor has defended his four professional MMA titles combined. 

UFC 246 takes place on Saturday, January 18 from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada with Conor McGregor and Donald Cerrone headlining. Fightful is providing live coverage of the event, with a post-show podcast to follow.
