Floyd Mayweather got his three-year-old grandchild, a very special Christmas present.

“I got you a gift. Guess what I bought you?” Mayweather said to his grandson, Kentrell DeSean Gaulden Jr., who his daughter Iyanna Mayweather shares with YoungBoy Never Broke Again.

“You the first kid that own a building in the Diamond District in New York City,” Mayweather says. “We bought you a building. Papa bought you a building,” he adds, as a woman cheers in the background.

Kentrell looks a bit confused before he hugs his grandfather.

NBA and Yaya first became romantically involved in 2018 and welcomed their first and only child together in January 2021. The two were later rumored to be engaged when she shared a photo of a ring on her engagement finger. However, they have since parted ways—though not always amicably.

While, in 2019, they both had their fun on YoungBoy’s flip of Michael Jackson’s “Dirty Diana,” called “Dirty Iyanna,” months later, in 2020, Yaya was arrested after she stabbed the Baton Rouge rapper’s ex-girlfriend, Lapattra Lashai Jacobs at YoungBoy’s home.

Even with the drama, Floyd’s love for YoungBoy Never Broke Again hasn’t faltered. In 2022, Floyd appeared on the Pivot podcast, speaking his son-in-law’s praises.

“I’m proud of NBA YoungBoy. Very, very talented young kid. One of the biggest artists, as far as in music. He got a cult-like following,” Floyd said. “I look at him just like one of my sons. I only want the best for him and I don’t want him having beef with anyone.”

NBA has 10 children in total. His youngest is his three-year-old daughter, Alice and two-year-old son, Klemenza Tru Gaulden, whom he shares with his wife of almost two years, Jazlyn Mychelle.
