Mayweather Jr. often shares Junior’s moves with fans. Now a video of the grandfather training, as the curious and eager grandson watches with rapt attention, caught followers’ curiosity.

Michael Benson did the honors by sharing the half-a-minute-long footage of Mayweather Jr. training on pads with trainer Gerald Tucker.

It’s elementary for a kid his age to get distracted easily. However, Pierre Reeves highlighted the focus with which Kentrell Jr. watched his grandfather train. Mayweather Jr. and his family are letting him pick the sport at his pace, which sounds much better in Reeves’ thoughts.

Frank Rizzo deviated from the line of discussion. He contemplated the situation if Mayweather Jr. competed in the Heavyweight division, that too against Mike Tyson at his peak. Sounding happy at the thought of the youngest Heavyweight champion demolishing ‘Money’ Mayweather within two rounds, Rizzo believes that even though much heavier, the former stayed ahead in speed. Mayweather Jr. puts himself a challenging target to hit. Nevertheless, Tyson could have caught him with ease.
