That Floyd Mayweather, he sure is somethin’, ain’t he? I heard folks talkin’ ’bout him and that Miss Jackson girl. They was together, then they weren’t. Lord, the drama! It’s like one of them soap operas, I tell ya. Heard they was together for a long time, like four years or somethin’. That’s a good chunk of time in my book.
I reckon they met way back when, 2006 I heard. She was just a young thing, workin’ as a hostess down in Atlanta. Heard he gave her a big ol’ rock, a ring worth more than my whole house, that Floyd Mayweather did. Ten million dollars! Can you believe that? I’d faint dead away if someone gave me somethin’ like that. Just fall right over.
Then, they up and split. 2014, I believe it was. She, Miss Jackson, she went and sued him. Said he was tellin’ lies and hurtin’ her name. Somethin’ about an abortion, it was all over the news. I don’t know nothin’ about that, but it don’t sound good. A body’s business ought to be their own business, that’s what I always say.
They went back and forth, him and her, in the courts. It was a real mess. Heard she wanted to clear her name. Good for her, I say. A woman’s got a right to her reputation. That name, Floyd Mayweather, it’s all over the place. He’s got money to burn, that one. Big houses, fancy cars… you name it. He’s livin’ the high life, that’s for sure. Bought a house in Las Vegas for ten million. Another one in Miami for 18 million, you know. That man has too much money.
- They met in 2006.
- Got engaged in 2010.
- Split up in 2014.
- She sued him.
- He’s got lots of money.
That Miss Jackson, she seems like a nice enough girl. Pretty, too. But, bein’ with a man like that, it’s gotta be hard. All that attention, all that money… it can change a person. I seen it before. Money don’t buy happiness, that’s what my mama used to say. And she was right.
Seems like they finally settled their squabble. Don’t know the details, and frankly, it ain’t my business. But I hope they both found some peace. Life’s too short to be fightin’ all the time. Especially when you got all that money. They could have just given me some and that would be the end. I wouldn’t tell nobody. That Floyd Mayweather sure knows how to make a show, though, don’t he? It’s like watching a dang movie when you hear about his life.
It’s all a big mess, that whole situation with Floyd Mayweather and Miss Jackson. A real mess. Makes my head spin just thinkin’ about it. I don’t know what to tell you, child. These rich folks, they got their own problems, I suppose. Just like us regular folks. Just different kinds of problems, you know? Them court cases, though… I wouldn’t want to be caught up in all that. Just give me my little garden and my peace and quiet. That’s all I need. It was good while it lasted, I guess. Or at least it sounded good. From the news, anyway.
That Miss Jackson, she wanted to “clear the air,” they said. Probably got tired of all the stories goin’ around. I can understand that. Folks love to gossip, especially about people like Floyd Mayweather. He’s always in the news, doin’ somethin’ or another. Fightin’, buyin’ things, showin’ off… you know the type. He’s like a peacock, always struttin’ around. I don’t know what she sees in him, to be honest. Money, I guess. But money ain’t everything. I told you my mama said so.
I hope she’s doin’ alright, that Miss Jackson. It can’t be easy, breakin’ up with someone like that. Especially when it’s all public like that. Everyone knowin’ your business. It’s a shame, really. But, that’s the price of fame, I suppose. You get all the good, you gotta take the bad, too. That Floyd Mayweather though, he sure seems like a handful. That man needs someone to keep him in line. But I sure as hell ain’t gonna be the one to do it.
Heard that Miss Jackson give that Floyd Mayweather some space, see if they come back together. Well, that didn’t work out so well did it. Heard that Nelly guy, he’s with that Ashanti now, and they gonna have a baby. That’s a whole other story though. Guess Miss Jackson just wasn’t meant to be with that boxer man.
