Floyd Mayweather is a grandfather. His daughter, Yaya Mayweather, gave birth to a baby boy in January this year. Since then, Yaya and her ex-boyfriend NBA Young Boy have made the news for all the wrong reasons. However, it seems like Floyd is very fond of his grandson Kentrell Jr., the unbeaten boxer bought him a Rolex even before he could walk, and spends a lot of time with him.

Yaya Mayweather keeps posting videos of her father spending time with Kentrell Jr. We cannot say the same for her ex-boyfriend NBA Young Boy, Kentrell’s father.

A video of Mayweather teaching Kentrell Jr. how to box has gone viral on Twitter. In the video, Mayweather has huge boxing gloves on his hand as he throws a couple of punches in the air, to show Kentrell Jr. how it’s done.

The video, posted on the No Jumper Twitter account, has since garnered almost half a million views, with many Twitter users trolling the father and daughter for the act. One user wrote, “Bro this kid is gonna be dangerous…his dad is youngboy and his grandpa is floyd Nawwww” hinting at all the trouble Young Boy has gotten himself into, and the fact that Mayweather is one of the greatest boxers of this generation.

Fans also trolled Yaya Mayweather saying, “Mayweather daughter can’t even fight ?” in response to all the tweets saying the kid will be dangerous when he grows up.

It will be interesting to see whether Mayweather’s grandson will get into boxing when he’s older.
