UFC Lꦿightweight Champion Conor McGregor would 🔯issue a response to the video through Twitter:
Hahahaha very good. Keep up the good work my son.

Yours sincerely,

McGregor and Mayweather battled in the boxꦡing ring this past August in what would be the UFC Lightweight Champion’s professional boxing debut. Mayweather would walk away with a tenth round TKO victory on that night and would then retire a short time🎃 after the bout.
The UFC star has continuedꩵ a back and forth with Mayweather since the 💫boxing engagement, but nothing has ever come about. McGregor has teased a return to MMA next, but nothing has been made of♓ficial at this time.
