When asked by Men’s Health for his thoughts on the #MeToo movement against sexual-misconduct, famed boxer Floyd Mayweather gave an incredibly bizarre answer about private jets and cars. In an interview published Wednesday, the magazine asked, “In light of the #MeToo movement, how men can grow in 2018.” Mayweather’s reply: “The who?” When the interviewer clarified, “The #MeToo movement. Women speaking out about sexual assault,” the boxer had this to say: “When you say ‘me too’... When somebody is like, ‘I got a Rolls Royce,’ I be like ‘me too.’ When somebody say they got a private jet, I say, ‘Me too. I got two. Me too.’” The magazine explained that the #MeToo movement is “very different,” to which Mayweather responded: “Well, I didn’t know! My Me Too movement from the beginning was whenever somebody said what they have I’m like, ‘me too.’ Somebody say they got a billion dollars, I say, ‘I made a billion dollars, me too.’”
