Conor McGregor wants to fight both Khabib Nurmagomedov and Tony Ferguson

Conor McGregor has reveled he wants to fight both Khabib Nurmagomedov and Tony Ferguson.

The two men are due to battle it out for the lightweight belt in April, but McGregor claims that he will be eyeing bouts with both of them in the future despite who wins.

He said: "Regardless of the result, I think I should probably face both of these men. I would like to face both of these men.

"I would like to face Tony Ferguson. I have a history with Tony. We managed Tony. He was well looked after. He was one of the best paid non-champions in the game. I would like a bout with Tony at some stage.

"Of course the rematch. We must make that rematch. I'm pushing for the Moscow bout. I'd love to do that.

"Both men are certainly in the crosshairs."

The Notorious makes his UFC return this weekend when he faces veteran fighter Donald Cerrone.

It will be the Dubliner's first bout since losing to Nurmagomedov over 15 months ago.
