Floyd Mayweather Jr called Will Smith "every day" for ten days after the Oscars controversy. The 45-year-old former boxing champion offered his support to Will after he hit comedian Chris Rock during the Oscars ceremony.
Will, 54, told TMZ Sports: "I want to say something also about Floyd. So, we’ve met each other, we’ve seen each other around, but we weren’t, like, friends. "And, the day after the Oscars, for ten days he called me every day.
And, he was like, ‘Ay, you know you the champ, right? You good? You know you the champ, right? I want you to hear my voice say it'. "That was every day he called me … and it’s like, that’s my dude forever right there. " Earlier this year, Will blamed being "fogged out" and "fuzzy" for not saying sorry to Chris at the time.
The Hollywood star resigned from the Academy in the wake of the row and was subsequently banned from the Oscars and all of the organisation's events for the next decade.
