San Diego Chargers running back Melvin Gordon and Minnesota Vikings cornerback Trae Waynes were treated to a private training session at Floyd Mayweather's gym over the July 4th weekend, according to TMZ Sports.
The rookies (and former high school teammates) met Mayweather a few months ago and hit it off, so the boxer decided to invite them to his Las Vegas gym to work out.
"Mainly they focused on conditioning," Gordon's rep told TMZ Sports. "They ran the treadmill and worked out two hours each day. They even hit the boxing bag a few times."
Mayweather was out of town at the time, but reportedly plans to meet up with Gordon and Waynes before the start of the season to offer mentoring and training advice.
