Mayweather Jr. being sued over connection with shooting

Floyd Mayweather Jr. is being sued by two men who say he orchestrated a shooting attack on them outside a Las Vegas skating rink two years ago. The lawsuit also claims that Mayweather and others have made threats to the two men since the attack.CEO of Mayweather Promotions, Leonard Ellerbe, says it is a civil lawsuit, and that the two men just want money from the boxer. Apparently the argument started when one of the two men, Quincey Williams, told Mayweather via text he hopes he loses his next fight. Mayweather Jr. denied even knowing Williams, but was seen on video and through witnesses, with him prior to the night of the shooting. Williams told the Review-Journal last year that he worked for Mayweather but quit because of the pay.
