Floyd Mayweather has Donald Trump’s back when it comes to “locker room talk.”

The legendary boxer may be a little late to the party, but months after Trump’s infamous Hollywood Access tape leaked Mayweather is coming to the president’s defense, TMZ reports.

In an interview with Hollywood Unlocked on Wednesday Mayweather stuck up for Trump’s lewd remarks from 2005 and suggested that most men, including himself, act the same way.

“He speak like a real man speak,” Mayweather began. “Real men speak like, ‘Man, she had a fat a**. You see her a**? I had to squeeze her a**. I had to grab that fat a**.’ Right?”

“So he talking locker room talk,” Mayweather asserted. “I’m the man, you know what I’m sayin’? You know who I am. Yeah, I grabbed her by the p***y. And?”

“People shy away from realness,” the boxer told Hollywood Unlocked. “This man didn’t do nothing. Hey, listen, if y’all didn’t want him in the White House, y’all should have voted the other way!”

He also defended the president against people who have called him a racist and pointed out that there was no talk of that before he became a presidential candidate.

“You never heard anything about Donald Trump being racist until he ran for president and won,” Mayweather explained. “Before that everybody was like: ‘Oh he’s on WWE, he’s on different shows,’ everybody they like Donald Trump.”
