I am all about justice for people who assault individuals.
Mayweather’s charge against his baby momma are serious and should be investigated. If he is found guilty of assaulting her, regardless of the reason, he should be thrown under the jail.
With that being said, a battery charge for poking someone in the cheek?
Floyd Mayweather has been charged with criminal battery in Nevada for allegedly — and this is serious — poking a man in the cheekbone with his finger … TMZ has learned.
TMZ has obtained the criminal complaint — in which cops say a private security officer named Shayne Smith told them Mayweather went ballistic outside of his Las Vegas home on November 15 after Smith placed parking citations on Floyd’s cars.
According to the documents, Smith alleges Mayweather screamed at him that he had no ‘f*cking’ business touching his personal property … then grabbed a citation and slapped it on Smith’s patrol vehicle.
The document continues, “While lambasting Smith, Mayweather was allegedly jabbing his finger into the left side of Smith’s cheek just below his eye. This willful and unlawful use of force and violence upon Smith caused redness and discoloration to the area which was battered by Mayweather.”
As a man, I wouldn’t have reported this to the police.
I know Mayweather is a world class boxer, but some things you just have to handle on your own. I would not have been comfortable walking into a police station saying:
“I need to file a complaint because a man poked me on my cheek, can you go arrest him?”
If it was anyone besides Floyd Mayweather, I don’t think the cops would even care— but they must be fans of Manny Pacquaio.
Speaking of which, until Money May gets allof these court cases cleared up, no need to even think or discuss a Pacquaio vs. Mayweather superfight.
