NBA YoungBoy is currently going through a rough patch as he remains under house arrest while he waits for his federal gun trial to commence this summer, and Floyd Mayweather has now offered him a helping hand.
On Saturday (January 27), the boxer shared a video to his Instagram in which he can be seen sitting inside his Rolls Royce next to two briefcases filled with cash. After bragging about his wealth and possessions, he explained the purpose of all the money he sat next to.
“And the bag — it’s crazy,” he said. “NBA YoungBoy, see all this? It’s on its way to you. Let’s go.”

NBA YoungBoy has a baby boy with the athlete’s daughter, Yaya Mayweather. In 2022, the undefeated fighter even praised the rapper while talking about wanting the best for him.
“I’m proud of NBA YoungBoy — a very, very talented young kid,” he said on The Pivot Podcast. “One of the biggest artists as far as in music. He’s got a cult-like following. I look at him just like one of my sons. I only want the best for him.”
Money Mayweather went on to say that he’s proud of the father of his grandson and hopes YB squashes whatever beef he has so he can enjoy the fruits of his labor .
“I don’t want him to have beef with anyone,” he continued. “These kids beefing nowadays and don’t even know what they beefing for. So much talent. See what happens to these young kids, they dying on the regular — Pop Smoke. Just so many young rappers and young entertainers, period.
“I feel like NBA YoungBoy went away for a while — I like to say went to college for a little bit — he’s back and I’m proud of him. I’m proud of my daughter. And I only want the best for NBA YoungBoy. I’m going to continue to push him and push her for both of them to be great.”
