Rick Ross almost knocked out his trainer while sharpening his boxing skills over the weekend.
The MMG boss hit the gym with Allmighty Athletics on Sunday (March 5) for a quick session with the gloves, and showed off his punching power. As he was going through one drill, however, Rozay almost landed a clean hit on his trainer’s nose.

A video posted on Ross’ Instagram Stories showed the 47-year-old performing a series of right and left-handed punches before coming with another one that barely missed the trainer’s face.
Both men had to recoup themselves before restarting the routine, but they ended up jokingly grappling each other, with Ross looking deep into the camera.
“It should be somewhere in the back of your mind: ‘I want to swell the eye up or swell his lip up,’” Ross said in the clip. “Because he should want me, because that’s why I pay him — for him to teach me how to swell a lip up or an eye up. So your boxing trainer should be cool with you swelling his lip up.”
The 47-year-old is a regular when it comes to putting on the gloves, and he actually gave his trainer a busted lip while sparring with him in October 2021. The trainer shared the clip on IG showing Ross getting it in.
Rick Ross’ boxing skills are so elite that even comedian Druski once backed out of training with him. In March 2022, Dru paid Ross a visit to his Atlanta, Georgia mansion and initially wanted to challenge him to a boxing match.
In footage posted on Rozay’s Instagram story, Druski began to warm up while the MMG mogul asked him if he really wants to get in the ring for a sparring session before instructing his trainer to get the comedian ready for combat.

“You finna get him right and make sure he eligible ’cause the last two n-ggas you brought here — come on now, on the floor, am I lying?” Ross said.
Druski began to get his hands taped up while the “Hustlin'” hitmaker roasted him for his gym attire.
“Aye boy, I just wanted you to know I’m a real n-gga, but you wear 2X. I don’t know what size them is,” Ross said about Druksi’s bright yellow shorts. “That phone can’t even breathe. That phone can’t get reception that n-gga’s shorts so tight. That n-gga finna put Cricket out of business!”
Druski continued to warm up before changing his mind when he saw the Richer Than I Ever Been rapper hitting the pads with his trainer. The comedian looked a bit nervous hearing Ross’ punches smack against the trainer’s padded hands.

“Them shits go off,” Druski said with a look of fear on his face as he turned the camera after watching Rozay working up a sweat. “God damn, we ain’t sparring today. Aye, coach, we ain’t sparring.”
Ross then asked Druski one more time if they were going to spar, to which Druski said a torn ACL was really what kept him from getting in the ring.
