Boxing legend Mayweather to meet Premier League champions Leicester City

The reigning champions may be battling against the drop this term but one of the world's most famous athletes hasn't forgotten their achievements

Floyd Mayweather has asked to meet Premier League champions Leicester City when he visits England on a three-date tour in March.

The former pound-for-pound king is due to visit the cities of Leicester, Liverpool and London next month when he will be interviewed on stage by former cruiserweight world champion Johnny Nelson.

And ‘Money’ is keen to have a chat with the team that made headlines across the world in May last year when he kicks off his tour at the Leicester Athena on March 2, according to promoter Shane Whitfield.
