In a recent video obtained by TMZ, Floyd Mayweather talked briefly about the possibility of training Prince Jackson — the King of Pop’s son. The short clip, which features a man asking Mayweather questions about the rumor on the street while the boxer is surrounded by his entourage, was posted on TMZ.

In the less than thirty second clip, the interviewer asks, “You teaching Prince how to box, Floyd?” The question was triggered by a report that Prince Jackson, son of the late singer, was spotted in a truck covered in “The Money Team” decals over the weekend. The Money Team is, according to its website, “a lifestyle brand inspired by Floyd Mayweather.”

In response to the question, the undefeated boxer says, “Oh yeah … you know, Prince Jackson, he like contact sports, so…” after which the interviewer interjects to ask, “How’s his jab man, how’s his jab?”

Mayweather then says, “Oh, I haven’t worked with him yet, but I look forward to working with him when I get back to Las Vegas.” After the statement, a member of Floyd’s entourage pushes the man’s camera away.

Despite the rumors, Prince’s uncle Jermaine Jackson indicated that the 17-year-old had no current plans to join Team Mayweather, telling TMZ that the young man entered the TMT vehicle just “because he likes big trucks.”
