WBA lightweight champion Vasyl Lomachenko (11-1, 9 KOs) does not believe that Khabib Nurmagomedov (27-0) and Floyd Mayweather Jr (50-0, 27 KOs) meeting will ever take place.

- Khabib Nurmagomedov says that if he fights Floyd Mayweather, he wants your father and Mike Tyson to coach him. What do you think of it?

- Do you believe in this story? Will Khabib fight Mayweather? Do you believe?

- I think yes.

- I don’t.

- Why?

- Because it is disrespectful to all the boxers.

- But it is a business and a lot of money.

- Yes, this is a business and good money for both, but it’s like a theater.

- 27-0 in the UFC against 50-0 in the boxing...

- Yes, but let Mayweather fight in the UFC. Nurmagomedov is not a boxer, he is a MMA fighter.

It became known earlier that Nurmagomedov and Mayweather Jr. want to have a fight by the rules of boxing. Later the American boxer said it would be the most profitable fight in his career.
