Last week, Floyd Mayweather made waves when he told ESPN's Stephen A. Smith that he's better than Muhammad Ali and Sugar Ray Robinson. "No one can ever brainwash me to make me believe that Sugar Ray Robinson and Muhammad Ali was better than me," he said. "No one could ever brainwash me and tell me that."

A few days later, TMZ caught up with George Foreman, who responded to Floyd's claim, siding with Money Mayweather, saying, "Pound for pound, Floyd is better than me and Muhammad Ali ever were," he said. "This is a better generation by far," Foreman said. "They're smarter, they're stronger, they're overall just better fighters." But what does Ali think? 

Earlier today, we finally got Ali's response through Twitter

That "Don't you forget" line isn't just intended for Floyd, it's for anyone else doubting Ali as the greatest ever. *cough Foreman cough*
