Floyd Mayweather says he'll be right in the middle of the action for Donald Trump's inauguration in D.C. next week ... telling TMZ Sports he's already got his tuxedo picked out!
Turns out, Mayweather has been friends with Trump for a while -- and says he really appreciated the support he got from Donald during the Manny Pacquiao fight. Mayweather wouldn't say if he's a democrat or a republican -- but praised both Obama and Trump.
"Barack Obama was a good president and hopefully, Donald Trump is a good president."
Mayweather also has a message for people concerned about Trump's presidency -- "We don't know what can happen in life. Only thing we can do is keep our fingers crossed, pray and hope for the best."
Back in November, Mayweather was one of the first celebrities to visit Trump at his Manhattan penthouse to congratulate him on his victory over Hillary Clinton in the Presidential election.
Mayweather is currently in New York City to promote the next high profile card for his promotional company.
This Saturday night at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, there will be a super middleweight world championship unification fight featuring Badou Jack against James DeGale, which is going to headline a Showtime televised card.
