Conor McGregor's niece Taylor shares throwback photos with UFC star and family

Meanwhile, McGregor has been offered a fight for the welterweight belt by the 170lbs champ Kamaru Usman.

The Nigerian told ESPN: "This will be history. Like I know a lot of people are trying to s*** on it like Conor doesn’t deserve it.

"Okay, but the next guy they would be deserving of the fight would be Leon Edwards and he can’t get into the country, so what?

"If Conor can make this fight happen, why wouldn’t we fight Conor? He just fought at 170 and he looked great.

"Cowboy Cerrone beat a lot of guys that were ranked at 170. He did very well at 170 and Conor went out there and starched him.

"Obviously I like Cowboy, and he’s my guy, but Conor went out there and got the job done in less than a minute. So how can people sit here and say Conor is not deserving?

"He says he’s the pound for pound greatest of all time across three divisions.

"This is your chance to prove it, go out there and win a third belt in a third division, so why wouldn’t we make that fight?

"I'm going to give him the opportunity, if Conor wants, let’s do it. But Conor’s quiet now. Who says no to a title shot?

"I’ve never seen this in history, who says no when the champ says come and get your title shot? Unless you know you have no chance in hell of winning.

"This might change the landscape of your fighting career ever. That’s the only chance I can see people saying they're going to pass on that title shot right there."
