CONOR McGREGOR has called out the welterweight division after his emphatic 40-second KO win against Donald Cerrone.

The Notorious looked like he had never been away as he totally destroyed the Cowboy at UFC 246 in Las Vegas.

Both were ringside to see the drama unfold in Sin City.

McGregor said: "Anyone of these little melty fools can get it.

" All of them, every single one of them. It does not matter.

"I'm back and I'm ready."

McGregor, seeking a win for the first time in 1,163 days – was greeted with a clinching battle early.

But he replied by landing some heavy shoulder strikes on his veteran American opponent.

But as the pair broke away, McGregor landed a sublime high kick that would set him on his way to an early victory.

Cerrone was sent reeling backwards and The Notorious sensed his opening to close the show.

KHABIB REMATCH?

After sinking in a signature left hand Cowboy was dropped and McGregor hammered away with heavy strikes to his downed opponent.

Referee Herb Dean decided Cerrone had taken too many elbows from a resilient Notorious and the fight was stopped with 20 seconds left on the clock.
