CONOR McGREGOR has challenged Belal Muhammad to a massive world title fight and urged UFC president Dana White to book it in an intense rant.
McGregor, 36, hasn’t competed inside the octagon since his horror leg break at UFC 264 three years ago against Dustin Poirier.

The Irish bruiser was all set for a comeback fight against Michael Chandler at UFC 303 last June.
However, the Notorious broke his left pinky toe in one of his final sparring sessions and that forced him out of the bout.
The MMA star revealed to SunSport that he was forced to go up a shoe size because of the injury but insists he is still fighting fit.
Now Chandler is locking horns with Charles Oliveira at UFC 309 in November, which leaves McGregor without an opponent for possibly the rest of the year.
The Irishman still wants to face the American but is now targeting welterweight gold.
The UFC superstar has his eyes set on Muhammad, who dethroned Leon Edwards for the belt at UFC 304 in July.
The popular fighter didn’t hold back on his assessment of the welterweight champion as he called him “woeful” and belittled his stats.
McGregor said during his appearance at a Kick stream for Duelbits: “He’s woeful.
“I want to fight him. Okay, Chandler’s matched, let’s schedule Belal-McGregor UFC welterweight world title on the line.
“I’ve multiple knockouts at 170lb, I’m a force to be reckoned with at 170lb.
“I do damage at welterweight, check the stats. I’ve done them at 100 per cent accuracy, this man doesn’t even have a knockdown in UFC history.
“Not one knockdown, it’s embarrassing, to be honest. I was kind of slow rolling the person because I just don’t a b*s.
“They’re all bums in the thing. You don’t be interested, come to me, but for the strap? Yes, next, yes please. Stall it Dana and the lads.”
