Boxing icon Floyd Mayweather Jr. is explaining himself. The boxing icon has come forward to explain his stance toward Gucci amid the culture ripping him for not supporting a publicized boycott.

Floyd went to his social media channels Friday (February 15) and kept things 100 on why he’s not jumping on the anti-Gucci movement.

These people are playing hopscotch. First, they’re supposedly boycotting the NFL but as soon as the Super Bowl came around, they were either at the game, watching it on TV or throwing Super Bowl parties. Last week, it was R Kelly, this week it’s Gucci…https://t.co/oNWNgVuxUq

These people are playing hopscotch. First, they're supposedly boycotting the NFL but as soon as the Super Bowl came around, they were either at the game, watching it on TV or throwing Super Bowl parties. Last week, it was R Kelly, this week it’s Gucci. People boycott for trend but turn around and still shop at H&M and watch the NFL.

The Man ain't Never Represented the culture, hes is about Money. He has never been for one issue that has affected black people EVER..Actually hes always utilized his voice and platform to Elevate everything and Everyone that's Anti Black.. spoke against Kaepernick, went to trump's inauguration, countless other shit!! I'm not surprised or hurt everybody that's your color ain't your brother. The man no longer identifies as black he is Green.. He a great boxer! That's it!! ..he is morally opposite of who and what I represent..but yall dont care he Got money!! ..I dont fuck with him.. wont ever visit his establishment or purchase another fight he has .. #soulNotForSale #ImsoNotStatusQuo. #FuckGucci and Whoever wear it.
