Boxing champ Floyd Mayweather made it clear his two boys won’t be following in his footsteps because they “like to smoke weed.”

The 44-year-old professional boxer made the comments during an interview with BarStoolSports.com in a piece published Monday after he was asked how he would handle it if his kids wanted to follow a boxing career.

“My kids, uh,” Mayweather responded. “Well my two boys they like to smoke weed, so I know they ain’t going to be boxing.”

The host of the show laughed as Floyd explained that he personally doesn’t care to smoke marijuana but his sons do.

“You know I don’t,” he added. “That’s what they like, that’s what they like. They grown.” (RELATED: Jake Paul Challenges Conor McGregor To A Boxing Match, Offers Him $50 Million)
