Tenshin Nasukawa has responded to Conor McGregor’s call out by saying he is ‘honoured’.  We’re pretty sure that McGregor wasn’t being serious, when he called out Tenshin and it looks like Tenshin replied with a little tongue in cheek response himself. Suggesting that the kickboxing at 58kg, which is 127lbs. Unless McGregor cuts off one of his legs, I don’t think there’s any danger of the Irish man making that weight in a hurry.

Dear Mr. McGregor. Thank you very much for remembering my name. I’m honored that you would even consider fighting me. 58kg, kickboxing rules would probably get us in the ring sometime in the near future ? I will fight my RISE world GP this year so please watch your diet and wait for me! #RISE #Cygames #RIZIN #kickboxing @thenotoriousmma

Tenshin even jokes ‘please watch your weight’. We here at Asian Persuasion MMA don’t think there is any chance of this fight happening. At any weight, in any discipline. It seemed pretty obvious to us that McGregor was poking fun at Floyd Mayweather and that Tenshin has carried on the spirit in which the call out started.
