Floyd Mayweather Explains Fight With T.I, Apologizes to Tiny (@tip @floydmayweather)



In an interview with Necole Bitchie, Floyd Mayweather explains that a photo of he and Tiny started the fight at a Fat Burger in Las Vegas between himself and T.I. He also explains his long lasting friendship with Tiny and apologized for calling her out of her name.


"I been knowing Tiny before T.I. I've never slept with her," he said." I never kissed her, never touched her in no inappropriate way. Her friend Shekinah wanted to come to the [May 4th] fight, she brought Tiny with her. They came to the fight. After the fight was over Saturday night, Sunday they came over my mother's house.


My mother had a big, big party for me. They came over and showed love. They came over to my house all cool, all respect. Hang out with The Money Team, my crew. Everybody was cordial. No disrespecting type. After that, I guess she put a picture up on Instagram of her at the fight so I guess he [T.I.] was feeling some type of way."


T.I approached Mayweather about the photo and Mayweather explained that they were just friends.


"[T.I] came to me when I was in New York," he said." He stepped to me when I was at the jewelery store like, "Yo, let's go outside and talk." We went outside to talk, but he talked about, basically, "These girls tryna play us against each other." I said, "I don't know what you're talking about. You're talking about your wife?" I never put up a picture of her on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook. I was basically like, "Listen. I'm letting you know I ain't got...me and your wife don't have nothing...if you think so. So Memorial Day weekend, a lot of people come out to Las Vegas.


Tiny and Shekinah was out here. They come to my party last night. They cool. Everything is cool. We was at the strip club. Everything was cordial. We having fun. I throw my daughter [Iyanna] a big [14th] birthday bash today. I'm eating at Fatburger and next thing you know, he walk in talking about we need to talk again. And then I told him, "You need to get the f-ck outta my face. That's what you better do." And then he said, "I ain't talking to all these people so you ain't gotta talk loud." I said, "Listen, don't come to my face with no disrespectful sh-t. Like I told you before, you must've forgot what I did for a living." He said, "You do in the ring, I do it in the streets." I said, "My man, I do it everywhere. You can find out if you want to." Just like that."


It was previously reported that the two exchanged words before the fight happened. Mayweather continues:


"Then a couple of words exchange and people got to pushing and a riot kinda broke out. And then a bunch of chaos and that was basically it. Because, like I said before, he probably does some foolish things, but he ain't no damn fool to swing on me. Like, you must've forgot what I do for a living. He had a totally different look on his face.


Only person I wanna apologize towards is Tiny. I said something like "control your b****" and I don't want to say that about Tiny. So I do apologize to Tiny because she cool people, man. She cool. She never been disrespectful to me. Shekinah never been disrespectful to me. I'm going to continue to support Tiny and Shekinah cause they're cool people and I don't got nothing against them. So I apologize for that.


I'm not sleeping with that girl [Tiny] and I told that man before. But if I was, talk to her about that, don't talk to me about that. But I'm not going to be disrespectful because I'm not going to sleep with a married woman. Now if she was divorced...I still wouldn't do that because I'm cool with her and we have a real cool and cordial relationship and sometimes sex can mess a good friendship up. And basically, I don't want to f-ck up a good relationship that I have with a person.


So whatever I said, "stole your b***...take your b****" or whatever, I apologize to Tiny and all of her children and T.I.'s children for saying that. I want to apologize to the children and Tiny and Tiny's family for saying what I said."


He also says that T.I didn't hit him.


"As far as him swinging on me, I ain't having that. You see me. I'm out all night. He didn't make an appearance so let's see how his face look."


T.I canceled his event at the T.W Theater after the fight happened. Mayweather headed to King of Diamonds Vegas. Mayweather confirmed that Tiny was not present during the fight.


Floyd Mayweather Explains Fight with T.I. at Fatburger in Las Vegas


Floyd Mayweather Jr. has spoken out about his crazy fight with T.I. at a Fatburger restaurant in Las Vegas. The five-division world champion boxer offered his side of the story to Necole Bitchie who got the exclusive interview.


According to Mayweather, the fight was over his close friendship with T.I.’s wife, Tameka “Tiny” Cottle. Apparently, the Atlanta rapper was upset about a photo that Tiny posted on Instagram of her hanging out with Floyd’s daughter, Ilyanna.


After hosting a 14th birthday party for his daughter Ilyanna, Mayweather and his crew went to Fatburger for a bite to eat. It was there that Tip confronted Mayweather and a brawl ensued.


We’ll let Mayweather explain it.



I’m eating at Fatburger and next thing you know, [T.I.] walk in talking about we need to talk again. And then I told him, ‘You need to get the f— outta my face. That’s what you better do.’ And then he said, ‘I ain’t talking to all these people so you ain’t gotta talk loud.’ I said, ‘Listen, don’t come to my face with no disrespectful s—. Like I told you before, you must’ve forgot what I did for a living.’ He said, ‘You do in the ring, I do it in the streets.’ I said, ‘My man, I do it everywhere. You can find out if you want to.’ Just like that.


Then a couple of words exchange and people got to pushing and a riot kinda broke out. And then a bunch of chaos and that was basically it. Because, like I said before, he probably does some foolish things, but he ain’t no damn fool to swing on me. Like, you must’ve forgot what I do for a living. He had a totally different look on his face.”



Mayweather insists that he hasn’t done anything inappropriate with Tiny and he has been close with her for years.


“I been knowing Tiny before T.I.,” he said. “I’ve never slept with her, I never kissed her, never touched her in no inappropriate way.”


Mayweather wants to apologize to Tiny for his disrespectful remarks about her during his skirmish with Tip.



Only person I wanna apologize towards is Tiny. I said something like “control your bitch” and I don’t want to say that about Tiny,” he said. “So I do apologize to Tiny because she cool people, man. She cool. She never been disrespectful to me.”


“I’m not sleeping with that girl [Tiny] and I told that man before,” he continues. “But I’m not going to be disrespectful because I’m not going to sleep with a married woman. Now if she was divorced…I still wouldn’t do that because I’m cool with her and we have a real cool and cordial relationship and sometimes sex can mess a good friendship up. So whatever I said, ‘stole your bitch…take your bitch’ or whatever, I apologize to Tiny and all of her children and T.I.’s children for saying that.”



Mayweather’s account seems to corroborate with Jay Bling’s story of what happened on that fateful night.

Sneakernews

It’s not very often that we see a pair of Diadora‘s pop up and to make it even more of an occasion, Hanon has partnered up with the brand known for their quality. The Hanon x Diadora N9000 “Saturday Special” is an awesome homage to late ’80s European mode of public transportation.


The “Saturday Special” gets its colorway from the form of public transit and the resulting colorway is a rich blend of teal, mahogany and orange done in suede, leather and mesh for a shoe that feels like just the right blend of comfort and luxury. The Hanon flame on the heel and Diadora print lining are nice touches as well.


The “Saturday Special” version of the Diadora N9000 will hit shelves at Hanon on May 31. For the first 30 pair sold in-store, a T-shirt will be included with each purchase. Remaining stock will go online starting at 2PM ET.
