Following Donald Cerrone’s triumphant return to lightweight tonight at UFC Brooklyn, “Cowboy” repeated his desire to battle Conor McGregor, and the latter was quick to respond.

Cerrone took on rising lightweight Alex Hernandez at tonight’s event, and scored a second round, stoppage with strikes. After the memorable win, Cerrone called for a bout with McGregor, and the former champ tweeted out this:

For a fight like that Donald, I’ll fight you.
Congratulations.
