Floyd Mayweather's Alledged Assault Victim In Los Angeles Wants Him To Shell Out $3 Million+

Famed boxer Floyd Mayweather is facing serious allegations of assault from an alleged victim in Los Angeles. 

The accuser is seeking more than $3 million in damages for the February 10, 2022, incident. Mayweather now faces a legal battle that could potentially tarnish his reputation and result in significant financial consequences. 

Floyd Mayweather Jr., who is not new to being sued, is known for his unparalleled fighting skills and undefeated record. Mayweather has earned millions of dollars throughout his career and might now have to part with some of it in his assault case.

Trouble has found its way to Mayweather once again, as an alleged assault victim, Eduardo Andres Torres Martinez, in Los Angeles, is seeking substantial compensation from the boxing superstar.

Mayweather is being accused of physically assaulting Eduado outside a club in Los Angeles. The incident allegedly occurred after a confrontation escalated, leading to Mayweather and his bodyguards attacking the victim.

He claims to have suffered significant injuries during the assault, including a broken nose, fractures in his jaw, and multiple lacerations that required medical attention. As a result of these injuries, Eduado is now demanding that Mayweather pay over $3 million in damages.

The requested payments include $1.5 million in general damages, $40,000 in medical expenses, $500,000 for future medical expenses, $300,000 for loss of future earnings, and $1 million in punitive damages. 

The grand total sum of $3,340,000 includes compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of earnings due to being unable to work during his recovery period.

The victim's legal team argues that Mayweather's actions were not only vicious but also unwarranted and unjustifiable, per In Touch.

This is not the first time Mayweather has faced legal trouble related to assault allegations. In 2012, the boxer was jailed after pleading guilty in a domestic violence case involving his ex-girlfriend.

The incident tarnished his reputation, leading to public scrutiny and a loss of endorsements. However, Mayweather has managed to make a successful comeback in boxing and continue amassing wealth.

Mayweather's attorney, on the other hand, has denied any involvement in the alleged assault incident. He argues that there is insufficient evidence to support the victim's claims and that Mayweather was merely a bystander during the altercation. 

The attorney also suggests that the victim may be exaggerating his injuries to seek a larger settlement. The lawyer's response read:

"[Floyd] alleges that [Eduardo], named or unnamed herein, were careless and negligent in and about the matters alleged in the complaint, and said carelessness and negligence proximately contributed to the happening of the accident and to the injuries, loss and damage, if any, complained of by [Eduardo]."

Eduado recounted his harrowing experience with Mayweather. He alleges that the boxing legend subjected him to verbal threats and physical violence that left him deeply traumatized. 

The Blast reported that the alleged victim claims that Mayweather's supremacy in the ring extended beyond the boxing arena, leading to an atmosphere of fear and intimidation in his personal life as well.

Although the report suggested that he waited half an hour to report the incident to the authorities, Eduado insists that he was left in fear for his life. Nevertheless, eyewitness testimony painted the plaintiff's actions as dramatic.

Mayweather faced a lawsuit in 2010 when a man accused the boxer's team of assaulting him at a Las Vegas casino. According to the man, he wanted a photo with the boxer and to have a chat with him.

However, Mayweather took offense and allegedly gave his security a thumbs-down sign. The accuser said he was hit in the face and knocked him down, causing him to smack his head on the pavement.

Mayweather and his company were slammed with assault and battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and employee negligence.

The Blast reported that the famed boxer faced a lawsuit stemming from a car accident that occurred in Las Vegas on September 13, 2022.

The plaintiff, Katherine Adelia Bourke, alleges that she was "T-boned" at a four-way stop intersection by a vehicle owned by Mayweather and driven by his employee, Dezjah Berry. 

Bourke claims that Berry failed to wait at a stop sign, leading to the collision and resulting in injuries and damages exceeding $15,000. The lawsuit asserts that Berry was "incompetent" or "inexperienced" in operating the vehicle provided by Mayweather Promotions.

This incident is not the first time Mayweather has faced legal action related to car accidents. In 2014, he was sued over a head-on collision involving his children and boxer J'Leon Love, who was driving Mayweather's vehicle at the time.

Which way will this legal battle swing for Floyd Mayweather?
