Floyd Mayweather backs Justin Bieber after racist jokeBoxer Floyd Mayweather has defended Justin Bieber after he was embroiled in a racism scandal. As previously reported, The Sun obtained a clip of the singer several years ago saying: “Why are black people afraid of chainsaws?” The Canadian then went on to say: "Run n****r, n****r, n****r, n****r, n****r." Bieber has since apologised in a statement and boxer Mayweather, who is a friend of the Canadian, took to Instagram to defend the singer. He said: "Justin has been nothing but kind to me, my daughters and sons over the years. We all make mistakes when we are young, it’s part of growing up. I am proud of what he’s doing as a 20 year old musician and business man." The boxing star also added a photo of himself with Bieber. Watch Justin Bieber's racist joke below:
