UFC fighter challenges Ibrahimovic

Manchester United striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has been challenged to a fight by UFC fighter Danny 'Hot Chocolate' Roberts.

The Brit currently competes in the welterweight division of UFC and believes that the Swede - who has a black-belt in taekwondo - could hold his own.

"I'd like to see him in the Octagon to see what he's got," he told The Daily Express ahead of UFC 204, which is being held in Manchester.

Roberts also believes that an appearance from the world-famous footballer would raise the profile on his own sport.

"It would probably add a little bit more value to us and what we do," he said.

"So if he's willing to fight, I'm here."

In the build-up to Saturday's action, Roberts was also asked who he thought would win in a fight between Pep Guardiola and Jose Mourinho, opting for the latter.
