Former UFC bantamweight champion Conor McGregor said he is targeting a third division title. In a tweet, the Irishman responded to one of his fans who asked what it's like to knock out people in three different weight classes.

"It's amazing, I love this record. When I fight for the title at 170 pounds, I will also knock out my opponent. It will be the fastest knockout in a title fight. The most knockouts in a title fight (5) and then another knockout in a UFC title fight. Three fights, three knockouts, three new records. It's just around the corner," McGregor wrote.

On July 11 at UFC 264, McGregor lost by technical knockout to Dustin Porier, breaking his leg in the first round.
