Meanwhile lightweight champion Charles Oliveira, 32, has also offered to defend his title against the returning Dubliner.
Oliveira told ESPN Brazil: “It would be a very good fight for me.
“It would put a lot of money in my pocket and that’s the most important thing.
“And it would also be really good for my legacy, for me to have in my story.
“Regardless, if he’s coming from defeat or not, he’s a guy who’s made history, so I think it would be great, but it’s not just up to me.
“If it were up to me, this fight would already be happening.
“I have a daughter to raise. Everyone wants to fight Conor, it’s not just me who wants to.
“Everyone knows that fighting Conor is very profitable. I’m talking about money, and Conor knows that everyone wants to fight him.”
