Floyd Mayweather Jr. Says BOY PLEASE, Responds To Conor McGregor's Controversial "Dance Boy" Disses

Boxing icon Floyd Mayweather Jr. isn't treating Conor McGregor's words as weapons. The sports superstar has downplayed a controversial verbal jab thrown his way from the Notorious fighter.

Instead of exploding over Conor's comments, Mayweather dismissed the media's fascination with McGregor's choice wording.

In fact, Floyd actually tries to turn it into a joke - "We all know there's only 2 types of boys - a white boy and a cowboy - and I'm neither." TBE landed in NYC on Wednesday night, so we had to ask him about the outrage over Conor's racial comments at the 2 media events. "Racism still exists but you know, I try to take something negative and turn it into something positive," Mayweather told us. "A lot of people say that Conor McGregor is racist but I'm not worried about that." (TMZ)

Yesterday, rap star Drake sparked headlines after introducing McGregor and Mayweather at their Toronto press conference.

The Floyd Mayweather-Conor McGregor press tour made its way to Toronto on Wednesday, and you know the rules by now: If there's a major sporting event going on in Toronto, Drake is going to be there. This was no different. The rap star made an appearance and even gave McGregor a visit before the festivities kicked off. (USA Today)
