TMZ Sports released a video of Mayweather declaring his plans for the inauguration next week.
“Barack Obama was a good president and, hopefully, Donald Trump is a good president,” Mayweather said.
“We don’t know what can happen in life,” Mayweather said of Trump. “Only thing we can do is keep our fingers crossed, pray and hope for the best.”
