Mayweather is being sued by his former fiancee Miss Jackson for various things. One of those things was him releasing documents via social media showing she had an abortion without his knowledge.
Here is how Floyd explains why it was ok to do that in court documents obtained by TMZ.
“At age 37 I am an undefeated boxer. I have been the world champion in five different weight divisions.”
He goes on to explain that when he met Jackson, “she asked me to help her become famous” … and stated that her only semblance of fame was appearing in 7 music videos.
Floyd says he used his celebrity to help build her up — and says they became so famous, people were interested in every aspect of their relationship … including the break up.
Which is why Floyd says he went to social media earlier this year and told the world he ended things with Shantel because she had an abortion behind his back.
“Both parties are public figures. Abortion is a public issue,” Mayweather states in the docs.
He adds, “A public figure involved with another public figure in a public relationship can expect publicity, not privacy, about why it ends.”
Interesting defense, won’t know if it is an effective one until the judge rules.
