The pair's selfie showed them lounging outdoors on a golf course, seemingly riding a golf cart. While Sugar Ray was at the far corner of the photo, Daniel's view was closer.

The star dad donned a long-sleeve polo shirt, a face cap, and a protective face mask. Daniel seemed to have ditched a facemask, leaving his face in fans' view while rocking a collared shirt.

Daniel's hooded eyes were a replica of Sugar Ray's, backed by the full brows the former boxing star also has. The star dad did not hide his pride as he captioned:

"Father son golf day. Thinking and praying for @tigerwoods today…"

Sugar Ray might no longer be involved in combat sports, but he sure goes down in history as the winner of one of the greatest professional boxing matches of all time. At the time, he defeated "Marvellous" Marvin Hagler.

His journey with combat sports started when his older siblings inspired him with their boxing skills. He would often visit the local recreation center in his hometown and strap on some gloves.

He shared that boxing was a sport that required outright respect.
