The young boxer wasn’t afraid to call out his grandfather
Floyd Mayweather was training his three-year-old grandson KJ ‘Meezy’ Mayweather when the little boxing prodigy brought up an issue with his methods. Based on his reaction in this training video from Instagram, it’s safe to say the undefeated champion was not expecting to hear such a critique and didn’t know how to respond.
Watch Floyd Mayweather’s grandson question his methods
Despite his age, 3-year-old Meezy is clearly comfortable in the gym, even next to the all-time great. Floyd has posted countless videos of his “masterclass” sessions with his grandson, starting his boxing career at an exceedingly young age.
Who is KJ Meezy Mayweather?
KJ was born to Floyd’s daughter, Iyanna ‘Yaya’ Mayweather and famous rapper NBA YoungBoy. According to the boy’s Instagram account run by the Mayweather family, he loves superheroes and boxing.
With such an introduction to the sport, the Mini Mayweather has picked up a few things, and he has a level of comfort criticizing his grandfather that most would never dream of. As the two generations attacked the heavy bag adorned with $100 bills, an issue arose and Meezy made it known.
He was able to replicate some of Floyd’s punches and his trademark footwork, but when it came to a quick combo, he had some doubts about his ability to make any impact on the punching bag that was three times his size: “My hands are too little,” Meezy said, exhausted.
Floyd turned around and placed his hand on his forehead, stunned at the simple but true remark. For a three-year-old, his grandson is very impressive, but there are certain truths you just can’t get around at that age.
Nonetheless, they continued training once Floyd had gotten over the comment. If one person can get away with doubting Money Mayweather, it’s his beloved grandson. Although the moment of honesty stood out from the video, the rest of the session put the world on notice that Meezy Mayweather is going to be a problem by the time his hands are no longer “too little.”
