"Pretty Boy" Floyd Mayweather Gets Sent To The Slammer

“Pretty Boy” Floyd Mayweather was arrested and jailed without bail on a misdemeanor battery warrant late-Thursday night at the Bellagio resort on the Las Vegas strip.

Mayweather (41-0, 25 KO) was released after he spent 12 hours in the pen.

The most recent charges filed against Mayweather, who has captured nine world titles in five different weight classes, stem from allegations he jammed his finger in the face of a security guard multiple times during a November 15 spat over parking tickets outside his abode in the “Capital of Second Chances.”

The Vegas fuzz provided a photograph of the guard with what the police report described as redness and discoloration below his left eye.

Mayweather was released despite prosecutor Brad Turner’s effort to display the boxer’s pattern of “dangerous behavior” and to “send a message that he can’t continue to engage in these types of behavior over and over again.”

“Pretty Boy” was ordered in November by a Vegas court to stay away from his girlfriend and their two sons following a September 9 domestic dispute incident.

In that scrape with the law, prosecutors allege Mayweather, who owns a decent rap sheet from convictions on battery and assault in 2002 and 2005, struck his sweetheart and threatened to beat his kids if they called 911.

“Money” also reportedly stole cell phones belonging to his kin and he faces eight felony and misdemeanor charges that could ultimately result in a 34-year stay in the pen.

Mayweather, 33, who earned a bronze medal as a featherweight at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, is due back in court on that charge January 24.

Mayweather possesses incredible pugilistic skills and he is one of the more talented and accomplished fighters ever to enter the squared circle.

Unfortunately, Mayweather is also a coward and pathetic thug.

Despite a bout that could generate unprecedented riches, Mayweather has avoided battling legendary prizefighter Manny Pacquiao like the Filipino icon is akin to anthrax.

Sadly, Mayweather’s yellowness has now damaged both his legacy in the ring and his stature outside of it.

If Mayweather had been training and preparing to scrap Pacquiao (52-3-2, 38 KO), he likely wouldn’t have had the leisure time to supposedly physically attack both a rent-a-cop and the mother of his children within a span of two months.

Mayweather is an elite boxer and he could have become the first man to trump Pacquiao since Erik Morales did by unanimous decision in March 2005.

Instead, Mayweather may soon be sharing a “Sin City” jail cell with O.J. Simpson.

Mayweather once claimed he was the greatest boxer ever, saying, “I respect what Robinson and Ali did for the sport. But, I am the greatest, and this is my time.”

Fight fans will probably never know just how great Mayweather is or could have been.

Rather than readying for an epic contest with Pacquiao, it is seemingly Mayweather’s “time” to be removed from the streets for the betterment of society.
