After Shantel Jackson sued him for assault and battery, defamation and invasion of privacy, he countersued saying she ran up his credit card, stole property and took cash that didn’t belong to her all while cheating with Nelly who at the time was dating Ashanti.
Mayweather plans to prove this by deposing Ashanti according to The Blast.
On April 20 Mayweather filed documents stating his intent to depose Nelly and Ashanti. With Nelly, it’s a good bet Mayweather wants to open the R&B star up to a line of personal and embarrassing questions regarding the intimate details of his relationship with Shantel Jackson.
It’s unclear what he wants with Ashanti, who broke up with Nelly back in 2010. It’s possible Mayweather wants to put pressure on Jackson by roping in powerful celebrities and people close to her.
Whatever his strategy is, we’ll have to wait a little while to find out because both depositions aren’t scheduled until January, just ahead of the expected trial.
