Comments Thread For: Floyd Mayweather Jr. Sentenced To Six Months By Judge

A thousand bucks for poking an eye? Americans are becoming so weak ane ******ed. And women are taking advantage because of their gender. Not right. That culture is invading Hispanic countries too.

For some reason hispanics can't wait to get to America...they'd rather RUN than make their own countries better....

And folks, that's the end of Mayweather's career.

Nah, not a chance. If anything it will enhance his bad boy persona and guarantee him another huge pay day when he gets out. I don't like him but he a great fighter and an unquestionable money maker. Had he had to serve a couple years with his reflexes and skills being put on the shelf I might have agreed, but let's face facts, he's taken far longer vacations.

I love how this thread is turning into a Mayweather vs Pacquiao thread.

You are a very simple minded person. Just ask T.I,Tupac,B-Hop, all three of them came out of jail with there best performances. Ti, amd Pac wrote thier best albums, and Bhop turned his life around and took over the middle weight division. You are most likely the one that is gay. You think like a woman, very emotional and dramatic. Real men do not except dissrespect or any type of bull**** from a woman or a man. If you allow a woman to brag to your face about sucking and ****ing another man in your face while spending your money you are a weak ******, sorry excuse for a man. You say in front of the kids, well it is very important to stand your ground in front of your kids, no matter if its a girl or boy. They need to have a back bone and realize that some things can not be walked away from. Dissrespect in your own house from anybody is a sure wayfor SOMEONE to get thier ass kicked.

How is comparing boxing to rapping the same thing? U ******ed or something huh boy? For rappers going to jail/prison is a good thing, now they have time to write and now they can rap about life in there. Can boxer train in jail? Fucck this ***** Is in serious damage control. Instead of just chalking it up and face the fact that ur boy will be in there for a few months which isn't bad at all ur here comparing boxing to rappers sayin it will benefit the boxer? R-E-T-A-R-D!

Exactly, if anything this will be even more anticipated than his previous fights due to the jail time.

I think this brother is giving the best insight on what really is going on (legally) with Floyd.

Some of you guys need to get off your high horse

Some of the comments in this thread is hilarious and fake.

Everyone has had a family member, father, brother who has at one time or another, slapped his wife, girlfriend, babies mother because of a disagreement. For some to say not me!!! Is simply a farce and a lie!!!

Its life and it happens because we all are only human. So don't come online and make believe that you or your family are without any blemishes -- because it is an outright lie.

Floyd is guilty of abuse, plain and simple and he's going to pay for his infraction.

But, let's be real here if only for a moment .... this isn't a Mayweather crime ..... IT IS A HUMAN CRIME. And if it weren't common, there would be no need for family counselor's or counseling because all anyone with sense has to do is look at the statistics of abused women ... And I'm more than confident that these statistics weren't fabricated.

Domestic violence

One in four women (25%) has experienced domestic violence in her lifetime.
(The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and The National Institute of Justice, Extent, Nature, and Consequences of Intimate Partner Violence, July 2000. The Commonwealth Fund, Health Concerns Across a Woman’s Lifespan: 1998 Survey of Women’s Health, 1999)

Estimates range from 960,000 incidents of violence against a current or former spouse, boyfriend, or girlfriend to 3 million women who are physically abused by their husband or boyfriend per year.
(U.S. Department of Justice, Violence by Intimates: Analysis of Data on Crimes by Current or Former Spouses, Boyfriends, and Girlfriends, March 1998. The Commonwealth Fund, Health Concerns Across a Woman’s Lifespan: 1998 Survey of Women’s Health, 1999)

Women accounted for 85% of the victims of intimate partner violence, men for approximately 15%.
(Bureau of Justice Statistics Crime Data Brief, Intimate Partner Violence, 1993-2001, February 2003)

Between 600,000 and 6 million women are victims of domestic violence each year, and between 100,000 and 6 million men, depending on the type of survey used to obtain the data.
(Rennison, C. (2003, Feb). Intimate partner violence. Us. Dpt. of Justice/Office of Justice Programs. NXJ 197838.
Straus, M. & Gelles, R. (1990). Physical violence in American families. New Brunswick, N.J.: Transaction Publishers.
Tjaden, P., & Thoennes, N. (2000). Extent, nature, and consequences of intimate partner violence. National Institute of Justice, NCJ 181867.)

Women ages 20-24 are at the greatest risk of nonfatal intimate partner violence.
(Bureau of Justice Statistics, Intimate Partner Violence in the U.S. 1993-2004, 2006.)

Between 1993 and 2004, intimate partner violence on average made up 22% of nonfatal intimate partner victimizations against women. The same year, intimate partners committed 3% of all violent crime against men.
(Bureau of Justice Statistics, Intimate Partner Violence in the U.S. 1993-2004, 2006.)

Separated and divorced males and females are at a greater risk of nonfatal intimate partner violence.
(Bureau of Justice Statistics, Intimate Partner Violence in the U.S. 1993-2004, 2006.)

Women of all races are about equally vulnerable to violence by an intimate partner.
(Bureau of Justice Statistics, Violence Against Women: Estimates from the Redesigned Survey, August 1995)

Average annual rates of intimate partner victimization between 1994 and 2004 are approximately the same for non-Hispanic and Hispanic females and males.
(Bureau of Justice Statistics, Intimate Partner Violence in the U.S. 1993-2004, 2006.)

Intimate partner violence affects people regardless of income. However, people with lower annual income (below $25K) are at a 3-times higher risk of intimate partner violence than people with higher annual income (over $50K).*
(Bureau of Justice Statistics, Intimate Partner Violence in the U.S. 1993-2004, 2006.)
*Please note that those with less resources are more likely to report incidents of violence

On average between 1993 and 2004, residents of urban areas experienced highest level of nonfatal intimate partner violence. Residents in suburban and rural areas were equally likely to experience such violence, about 20% less than those in urban areas.
(Bureau of Justice Statistics, Intimate Partner Violence in the U.S. 1993-2004, 2006.)

Nearly 2.2 million people called a domestic violence crisis or hot line in 2004 to escape crisis situations, seek advice, or assist someone they thought might be victims.
(National Network to End Domestic Violence)

Studies show that access to shelter services leads to a 60-70% reduction in incidence and severity of re-assault during the 3-12 months’ follow up period compared to women who did not access shelter. Shelter services led to greater reduction in severe re-assault than did seeking court or law enforcement protection, or moving to a new location.
(Campbell, JC, PhD, RN, FAAN. Anna D. Wolf, Johns Hopkins University School of Nursing, Protective Action and Re-assault: Findings from the RAVE study.)

Nearly three out of four (74%) of Americans personally know someone who is or has been a victim of domestic violence. 30% of Americans say they know a woman who has been physically abused by her husband or boyfriend in the past year.
