Conor McGregor issued his very own call out the way of KSI after his dramatic loss to Tommy Fury.

The former UFC star took to X, formerly Twitter, during the YouTuber-turned-boxer's controversial loss to Fury at the AO Arena in Manchester.

Controversy surrounded KSI's defeat to the 24-year-old Mancunian, with many believing that the Sidemen member had done enough to hand the former Love Island winner the first loss of his career.

But instead it was 'The Notorious One' who wanted to hand the social media star a chance at facing him.

Taking to social media, McGregor posted: ''Ya know what. Me and KSI is an exciting fight. A juicy nixer I used to call them back when I was a plumber now I’m on the lambo yacht he’s in a huracan.''

The Irishman has often clashed with fellow members of the online world, most notably Jake Paul, who once reportedly offered McGregor $50 million to fight him inside the boxing ring.

After an entertaining night played out, Logan Paul's bout with Dillon Danis ended in controversy after he was disqualified for attempting a mixed martial arts move inside the sixth round.

In the fight's aftermath, Paul insisted that he wishes to return to his true passion, the WWE calling out Rey Mysterio in the process.

It remains to be seen whether Paul and Danis will face off again, given there was talk of a gentlemen's agreement between them that they would do so in an MMA format.

Astrid Wett, Salt Papi and King Kenny were all in action in Manchester as part of a stacked out undercard too, with plenty to dissect following an eventful evening of boxing.
