Muhammad Ali has hit back at Floyd Mayweather Jr after the latter questioned whether the boxing icon was "the greatest".

Muhammad Ali has hit back at Floyd Mayweather Jr after the latter questioned whether the boxing icon was "the greatest".

Earlier this month, Mayweather argued he is better than Ali ever was, before claiming in a subsequent interview that he respects "all the past champions".

The 38-year-old unbeaten boxer, who will take on Manny Pacquiao on Sunday in the most-anticipated bout this decade, insisted, however: "I'm the best at what I do".

But Ali - or those who control his official Twitter account - took a swipe at Mayweather on Monday.

"Don't you forget, I am the greatest!" the Twitter handle @MuhammadAli wrote.
