In recent days Floyd Mayweather was called out by UFC lightweight champion Khabib who recently beat down previous Mayweather foe Conor McGregor.

Khabib was alongside Mayweather’s friend and CEO of his promotional company Leonard Ellerbe of Mayweather Promotions at the time where he said there can only be one king.

Now Floyd Mayweather has officially responded by saying:
