McGregor recently claimed that Mayweather was too "scared" to take on the challenge, but 'Money', who was ringside to watch Carl Frampton's Las Vegas rematch with Leo Santa Cruz, revealed he is ready to get back in the ring.

"Most likely the fight between me and Conor McGregor will happen," Mayweather told Sky Sports in an exclusive interview.
