LOS ANGELES (AP) – Michael Phelps isn’t sure what kind of moves Ryan Lochte has planned for “Dancing with the Stars.”

The 23-time Olympic gold medalist said Friday at the “Call of Duty” fan convention that he’s never seen him dance.

Lochte is competing against such celebs as rapper Vanilla Ice and “Brady Bunch” actress Maureen McCormick in the ABC dancing competition’s latest season.

Phelps also said he isn’t planning a trip to the ballroom to root for his teammate.

The beleaguered swimmer is facing charges from Brazilian police that he filed a false robbery report during the recent Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Phelps is a longtime fan of the interactive shooter series “Call of Duty.” He was on hand at the convention to check out the latest edition, “Infinite Warfare.”
