Trainer Roger Mayweather could be in doubt to work Floyd Mayweather's corner on September 19 against Juan Manuel Marquez. Mayweather was arrested over the weekend when he attacked one of his former female fighters, Melissa St. Vil. Las Vegas Metro police report that Mayweather was arrested on charges of coercion with force and battery-strangulation and booked into the Clark County Detention Center.
He showed up at her home at Trotwood Lane in Las Vegas and attacked her over a dispute having to do with a training agreement. Police found St. Vil being held by Mayweather and coughing up blood from being choked. St. Vil was beat to her ribs several times and choked to near-unconsciousness. She managed to fight back with a lamp, causing injury to Mayweather's head.
