*Floyd Mayweather Jr. is speaking out against the #BlackLivesMatter movement. In a new interview with ThaBoxingVoice, the retired boxer said that as far as he’s concerned, “all lives matter.”
He also spoke his mind about the Colin Kaepernick situation.
He added:
“What I learned from boxing — what everyone can take in real life — is follow directions and follow order. Don’t give nobody a hard time. When someone break in your house, when someone break in your car, the first thing you do is call the police. With me being a fighter, and my hands being registered, if I hit a guy for breaking in my house or break in my car, it’s going to cost me more money. So I have to work smarter not harder. I’m gonna call the cops.
“It’s not right what’s going on within this world on both sides. I think we need to communicate better, we need follow direction. It’s rules and regulations to everything,” Mayweather said.

Mayweather was also asked his thoughts regarding NFL player Colin Kaepernick’s protesting of the national anthem. With his “all lives matter” stance it probably comes as no surprise that he’s not a supporter of Kaepernick, but says he respects the QB because of his popularity. He also says Kap needs to worry about getting his old job as a starter back.
“Kaepernick need to get the starting job. That’s what he needs to focus on. I can’t knock him. If that’s what he believes in and people want to stand by him, then so be it. He got the number one selling jersey so it’s obvious he doing something right,” he said.
