Comments Thread For: Floyd Mayweather Jr. Prevails in Copyright Lawsuit

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Floyd Mayweather isn't just the champ in the ring .... he's also the champ in court, beating down a music producer who accused him of ******* a song beat back in 2008.

You might recall, producer Anthony Lawrence Dash sued Money May in 2010 over a song the boxer used as entrance music during his 2008 appearance at WWE's Wrestlemania 24. Dash said the beat in the song was his, and Floyd used it without permission.

Dash sued Mayweather, WWE, and others for at least $150,000 in damages -- but a judge recently ruled in Mayweather's favor.

surely he will appeal. I mean they used his beat without permission. in an arena hosting thousands with a TV audience of millions. that needs royalty payment irrelevant if floyd got paid or not.

This site has always been tmz. Grown men infatuated with what boxers earn, what they do in between fights, and what their personalities are outside of the ring. I don't care for any of that. Just fight.

I have to respectfully disagree because I don't think playing his beat as a ring entrance constitutes copyright infringement. If it was a bar or a club, his music might get some spins, but he wouldn't sue the deejay. If anything, other artists may have heard the beat because Mayweather used it for his ring entrance and want to use it on a song.

I was thinking this too...it was like a 20 page circle jerk. Times sure have changed on here.

And Canelo was exposed for the Golden Hype Job that he was.. I honestly dont see Canelo being great unless he changes his camp to a trainer with credentials..
