Radio entertainer T'bo Touch is in possession of boxing gloves exclusively signed by Floyd Mayweather - and he wants the world to know it.

Touch, whose real name is Thabo Molefe, flew to Las Vegas to catch Floyd 'Money' Mayweather in action against Manny Pacqiaou.

Touch and Mayweather are friends - with the radio DJ frequently boasting about his connection to the high flying boxer.

Touch has proved his close association with the extravagant sportsman by uploading images of the pair together on his Instagram profile.

But he went one step further by showing off his Everlast boxing gloves which were personally signed by Mayweather recently.

Captioned Touch: "Excuse me who's got the f**cken champion signature right now. Excuse me this is worth $$$$.."

In response to this image, some jealous Instagram followers opined that the gloves were not the ones Mayweather used to fight Manny.

Said @deckstar88: "Those aren't the gloves worn by the fighters" with Paul_joy adding: "Pity they aren't Floyd's approved Grant Boxing Gloves."

The response was mostly positive with many congratulating Touch for celebrating his friend's accomplishments.
