On the heels of his latest criminal charges — a pair of misdemeanor harassment counts filed against him last week in Las Vegas, NV, Floyd Mayweather Jr. is at the center of new lawsuit.

According to court documents obtained by the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the plaintiff, Clay Gerling is seeking $10,000 in damages.
Last week the Review-Journal broke the news that “Pretty Boy Floyd,” was charged in Vegas Justice Court with two misdemeanor harassment counts stemming from an incident that allegedly took place in October in which Maywether told a Southern Highlands security guard that he would get his friends with guns to come over and deal with the official hired by his gated community to look after parking enforcement after he was told to move his vehicle from the street. The incident was separate from earlier charges Mayweather is facing for poking another guard (who had issued him a parking citation) in the face.
Maywether is set for preliminary hearing on felony charges stemming from a September 9 domestic dispute with his baby’s mama, Josie Harris and their two children. Those charges include coercion, grand larceny and robbery.
Mayweather is rumored to be returning to the ring in September against 29-2-2 welterweight Victor Ortiz.
If you missed Manny Pacquiao‘s latest performance on Saturday night, well, you didn’t miss much. The boxing megastar defended his WBO welterweight title by unanimous decision against “Sugar” Shane Mosley, in a bout that was marked by a disappointing lack of action. It’s not suprising that this CBS Sports highlight reel starts at the end of the 10th round. The only notable moments before that were a knockdown that Pacquiao scored in the 3rd frame — which seemed to convince Mosley to quit engaging altogether — and a trip/shove by Mosley earlier in the tenth that the referee decided to rule a knockdown, just to keep things interesting. Nevertheless, two of the judges ignored the ref’s bad call and gave every round to Pacquiao.
As we told y’all on Friday, the Pacquaio/Mosley match was Gus Johnson’s final play-by-play gig for Showtime, and he made sure to trot out his diverse range of knowledge. At the 0:52 mark: “He kinda throws, in the MMA world, it’s a version of the ‘Superman’ punch.” GuJo‘s just keeping the chops sharp until the UFC comes calling, I guess.
After every mechanical victory by Pacquiao over an outmatched opponent, our thoughts always turn to Floyd Mayweather Jr., and what he might be up to right now. Well, get a load of this…

Last Thursday, Money Mayweather was charged with misdemeanor harassment for making threats against two security guards who ticketed a couple of Mayweather’s cars that were parked outside his Las Vegas mansion back in October. According to TMZ:
Mayweather allegedly threatened the guards — who patrol the boxer’s upscale housing community — after he noticed the citations, claiming, “My homies have guns. If you want me to call them, they’d come over here and take care of you.”…According to the complaint, Floyd added, “These are my f**king cars. Don’t touch my f**king cars.”
