Incredible stuff from Conor
Once again, McGregor has set the MMA world alight!!
The King is back!!
All too easy for McGregor! Incredible!
MCGREGOR WINS!!!!
McGregor opens up with a huge strike and attempts to end it by taking Cerrone's head off!
It looks like McGregor broke Cerrone's nose with a quadruple shoulder strike inside the opening seconds!
McGregor then rocks Cerrone with a high kick to the jaw, followed by a knee and he then proceeds to rain down blow after blow after blow until the referee is forced to end it inside 40 seconds!!
Conor McGregor is back ladies and gentlemen!!

Conor heads to the cage!
McGregor makes his way to the octagon with 'Foggy Dew' blaring through the speakers followed 'Hypnotize', and the fans go crazy as he appears on the big screen!
Cowboy makes the walk!
Cerrone makes his way to the octagon. He breaks a record by taking part in his 34th UFC fight.
Conor Mac is back
What a thrill it is to see McGregor back in the UFC. He was the promotion's first ever simultaneous two-time division champion as he held the featherweight and lightweight belts at the same time in 2016.
