Irish UFC superstar, Conor 'The Notorious' McGregor, has sparked rumours that the MMA fighting contest may be coming to the Avia Stadium.
McGregor tweeted UFC CEO, Lorenzo Fertitta, a picture of the former featherweight champion himself standing in the stadium with the caption, 'The stadium gets bigger. The vision gets clearer. UFC in the Aviva?'.

And it appears the UFC boss, as well as hundreds of fans, love the idea as he recently replied to the Irish MMA fighter saying 'Let's do it!'.

There is no official word yet on whether the rumours are true and if Ireland will get to see McGregor, UFC's number 9 ranked Featherweight fighter, fight again on home soil.
