This morning the Internet went into a frenzy as numerous videos spread of a huge brawl between boxing champion Floyd Mayweather and rapper T.I. The incident took place at a Fatburger in Las Vegas where T.I reportedly approached Mayweather and addressed him about a suspected relationship with his wife Tiny. Floyd then told T.I to “control his b***h” and a big melee ensued.
Necole Bitchie spoke with Floyd soon after and he set the record straight about what happened, says there’s no relationship with Tiny and apologized to her for his use of language.
Floyd on his relationship with Tiny
I been knowing Tiny before T.I. I’ve never slept with her, 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.
On T.I approaching him over the Instagram photo
[T.I] came to me when I was in New York. 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.
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.
On wanting to apologize to Tiny
Only person I wanna apologize towards is Tiny. I said something like “control your b-tch” 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-tch…take your b-tch” 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.
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.
After the incident was over, Floyd and his crew headed over to King of Diamonds Vegas. Meanwhile, T.I. had an event at the T.W. Theater next to Fat Burger but pulled a no-show due to the incident.
As for T.I face, TMT DJ Jay Bling claims T.I has two black eyes. Here’s his account of what happened.

That *expletive* cray lol I commend both men mayweather for stepping up and apologizing to tiny and the FAM I always thought he was a narcissistic a whole buuuuut this kinda changes my opinion a tad he awesome for that and also t.I. for being a husband and taking up for the honor of his wife and possibly getting his *expletive* whooped for his wife kiddos to T.I. I say he got the heart of a lion for that not many husbands let alone boyfriends take up for they woman’s honor #RESPECT TIP
Definitely, don’t respect T.I. Like Floyd said, if he was sleeping with Tiny, T.I needs to talk to Tiny about that. As far as T.I approaching Floyd, I’ll give him street props to step to someone like “the undefeated” Floyd, but no respect for trying to confront him about his wife. Key word, “his” wife. You don’t approach another man about “your” wife. If that man disrespect you in any kind of way, then that’s a different story; but it seems like Mayweather didn’t disrespect T.I at all prior to the altercation.
That’s a real brother apologizing for disrespecting a black woman! Thank you Floyd for stepping up we appreciate you Brother!
WELL SOMEBODY LYIN, CUZ T.I. JUST POSTED A VIDEO AND LOOKED QUITE FINE TO ME #ASALWAYS
Floyd just said out of his own mouth ti and tiny separated but I respect him for being a real man cause most men would still hit that married or not!
floyed you are so stupid that all a man gotta do is sit back and watch you *expletive* you!
“Floyed”. You are a funny guy. Get you some paper and a tutor.
No black eyes on T.I. so #BOOM to that
Floyd Mayweather was all of this necessary you could have took all this chaos outside!!!! Bi**h is a biting word something you can’t take back after being said and furthermore you made it look as if she was all up on you “handle your bi**h” not cool!I thought this should of been handle differently TI just wanted to holler I don’t blame him cause its his wife what any man would do if he love his woman. Sho old of talked this out like gentlemen and not give the world something to talk about the situation was ratchet!!
Both their story sound different thats suspect on tmt cause ti clearly dont have black eyes. Thats a bold face lie?.. tell one lie its a big hole in it?
A boat cant float with a hole in it…..
Right!
I like T.I., but he went out like a sucka. Your wife is posting pics, why approach a man, control your house. Floyd ain’t worried bout nothing, all women want to hang out with the Vegas Money Mayor!
Kid them punches to the head is starting to fuck with you’re brain! You hear it in you’re speech.
T.i is right he has 2 ask wats happening btw mayweather n her wife……n this goes 2 floyd dont think wat u do in tha ring is all u can also do ouside here my brother ur wrong……T.i will chop up ur balls…..
Man shut the hell up he want tiny and they probly was fu**ing around cus tiny knows she’s ugly as f**k so to make ti mad she try to act like Floyd wanted her and black two black eyes in less than 5mins I didn’t no when u get punched that two black eyes just pop the hell up nobody touch ti and unless u got pics of him with a black eye oh I mean two then just shut the f**k up
Mayweather ain’t nothin but a BI**H!! He’s right he fights in the ring but TI is a street fighter. Mayweather had to train to learn how to box so try agin mayweather better yet you wanna talk about being “undeafeated” why won’t you step your bi**h a** in the ring with Manny Pacquiao!? Cause you’ll get knocked the f**k out!! LOL real talk dude ya wanna steady talk sh*t but back out every time PAC-man calls ya a** out like the bi**h you are.
Tiny and Mayweather was hangout when TI was lock up the first time. Something going on
Doesn’t matter if ti has fought on the streets come on…. Floyd would destroy him in any kind of fight
YEAHH!!! At the end of the day…. It could have been, handled another way…. Not, on some Hood-$h!t…. Ya digs…. But, But, if some, leading on by “Tiny” and her girl friend…. Could have been, explained… And if not, then it is what it is….. Don’t pay it no mind…. If a married-woman going to see any (man) in another state, ESPECIALLY, A high profile celeb (like) Maywether, It does seem to be so e leading on on her part…. I just say’N…. If you been with a man for a decade or two…. You know, what will get your man-ticked-off!!! (Ya digs)….. So, (Tiny) knows, what she do’N….. Take, care of your Mann, and them, kids…. You ant’ young any more…. It time to grow up! Stop chasing Mayweather all over the country-side….. And for Tiny’s side-kick….. Shinikwa or what ever her name is ((You need a life))…. Too!! ” STOP” BEING-A-Scrub!! ~ Gurl……
