Floyd Mayweather has been a professional boxer for more than 20 years. His boxing prowess has earned him fame, fortune, and a lot of friends throughout the years. Notably, the fighter once asserted that he was friends with a renowned NFL athlete; however, those claims were squashed soon after by the football legend himself.

While talking to ESPN, Floyd Mayweather stated, “That’s a close friend of mine. Tom Brady is a very, very close friend. An unbelievable guy with unbelievable talent…he’s a great guy. Actually, Tom Brady texted me yesterday.”

He further added, “We have a cool friendship. He texted me and asked me ‘How’s everything going?’ And I texted him back: ‘Everything is cool, how you doing? How’s the family?’ And he said, ‘Everything is going A-OK.’”

However, Tom Brady denied the claims made by the boxer. He said, “No, I met him a couple of times. I think he’s a great fighter. That was a great fight the other night.”(Mayweather’s fight with Conor McGregor). Apparently, the American football player doesn’t reciprocate the boxer’s feelings.

Reportedly, the two celebrities stopped talking to each other in 2017. While the boxer was focused on his big fight with UFC legend Conor McGregor, the singer-songwriter unfollowed him on Instagram. This certainly raised questions about their friendship among fans. 

Following this, even ‘Money’ posted a picture on Instagram calling Bieber a traitor but deleted it shortly after. The two shared a seventeen-year gap, but their bond ran deeper than family. In fact, the singer even learned to box with his close friend during their time together.
