Boxing icon Floyd Mayweather has sparked a debate by declaring that Donald Trump is "the best president" the United States has ever had. Mayweather, known for his past support of Trump, made the comment during a recent appearance on Fox Business, where he said, "I think Trump is a great president, actually he's the best president we've ever had. Great businessman and that's what it's about."
The undefeated boxing legend has been vocal in his admiration for Trump in the past, attending his first inauguration and supporting him throughout 2017.
Mayweather added, "Trump has done an amazing job and a lot of people around America are upset. But no matter who goes into the White House, we're always upset. And I think Trump is the man for the job, he's the best president in my eyes."
His remarks have caused quite a stir on social media, with many Trump supporters celebrating the endorsement. One supporter on X said, “Great recognizes Great... let's be honest, it's only 1 month in and he's flipped the entire story upside down.”

While Mayweather's political views have been largely kept private in recent years, his admiration for Trump appears to remain strong, with some followers praising his honesty. Fans of Trump were happy to see they still have the boxer as a fellow supporter.
It is great to see less and less people being afraid of being attacked over supporting Trump. The left has lost all of their power.

— Make Men Great Again (@OneXOneY) February 27, 2025Mayweather is the best. He’s like Mike Tyson from a common sense and political standpoint, but without the tattoos and ear biting stuff.

However, others questioned the timing, noting that Trump’s second term has only just begun.
His head got hit A LOT so we must not judge.
