Khabib vs. Mayweather in Boxing? | SiriusXM | Luke Thomas


After his UFC 229 win over Conor McGregor, UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov has been active on social media and even challenged undefeated boxing star Floyd Mayweather. Mayweather responded to Nurmagomedov. While a bout between them seems unlikely, it’s worth unpacking what the callout means.



The Luke Thomas Show airs weekdays, 3 to 6pm ET, on SiriusXM RUSH, channel 93.

  1. I can’t believe you wasted 10mins on this. It was definitely Conor being the best boxer in the UFC, Khabib is a wrestler. Frankly you’re talking down to the American people acting like there so uneducated they wouldn’t know the difference. There is something public figures tend to do, you guys get so jaded about people being stupider than you that you publicly start calling your own fans idiots. Calling non-mma fans “donks”, I’m embarrassed as an mma fan that you’re representative of me treating the general public in such a way. I’m unsubbing because that’s the little I can do.

  2. There's one reason it's not gonna happen. It's because Khabib wouldn't sell out for money like Conor. He won't do boxing match with Mayweather when he knows he is gonna lose. And Mayweather won't do MMA as everyone knows he will get mauled. It's just a PR show by Mayweather's team. keepin him in headlines.

  3. Oh boy oh boy Luke… you getting ridiculous. It was clearly a joke, did you even watched that video? How can somebody cover MMA fpr a long time and at the same time have absolutly no clue about personality of the stars of the sport? Khabib is jocking around ALL THE TIME – that's how he is

  4. Khabib doesn’t have star power. His profile has gone up but people do not care about him in the same way as Conor(positive and negative).
    This is stupid
