I was expecting insults and swearing but he did it perfectly. Conor should accept in my opinion.

Bad fighter to call out.

The motivation makes sense, this will be a high profile fight with all of the attention McGregor is getting, but I agree with @Tycoon. Akira is just setting himself up to be McGregor's next victim. Sounds like a sweet fight though.

That's a classy call out by Akira. Not the best fight for him to take but personally this is how I'd like McGregor to be built up. I think After Brimage, Akira is a good solid name to put on Conor's resume and this isn't throwing him in pit too quickly. Not that I think Conor couldn't handle it, I'd just rather see him take a few mid level fights before jumping into the top 10.
No matter who it is though, I'm just stoked to see Conor go to work again.

Akira isn't close to Conor's level, but I can see him wanting to fight on that card against the guy who's going to be one of the main focuses of the event.
His biggest problem is that Conor wants to fight so bad on that card that he might actually accept the fight.
I don't think Joe Silva will want that fight to happen, though.

I try to go by the if you wouldn't say it to their face rule and it works well.. I saw a few actually challenging him to a fight also and saying that they would beat the **** out of him. If I were Akira, I would genuinely offer to fly them out and spar with him.
In fact I think for the first time ever I'm going to go on a bit of a twitter rampage and teach some Irish just bleeders the finer points of MMA...
