    The brothers must have not signed a waiver release to be on the show or they couldn't file a lawsuit with any merit. If they did sign one, then the suit doesn't fall under the terms of the waiver. All parties will most likely end up settling and the Rahman brothers will get paid, but probably not a crazy amount.

      According to Cameron ("British guy"), it was the other way around. Smith wanted to fight him, it was edited. Don't trust the episode itself, watch the interviews with Rahman and Cameron.

      Of all the things he has done (incl. multiple violent altercations with women), this is what makes you lose respect for him?

      Yep, he'll pay up and settle out of court.

      I don't doubt that Mayweather said ""Ïf Sharif quit, beat his ass outside the ring" but it takes a special idiot to think he was gonna go that route. This may not end well, not because of Mayweather's carelessness but because he's dealing with disloyal people who also happen to have good material against him. To accuse Mayweather of saying that means, they obviously have proof.
      Lol come on man, Mayweather's behavior was at best unprofessional and at worst pretty disgusting and for some reason you have the worst part in your sig.

        Honestly when i watched that i thought once again how much garbage Floyd is,i trained in many gyms obviously in diff. cities but one thing you can find in all gyms : honor in work! That was something you could find in every gym where people that love boxing teach to boys how to become men,imagine the great Emanuel Steward doing a **** like that in the KRONK,impossible. Gyms are place where you grow up as a man,i told millions times that Floyd is only garbage,i will make my son learn how to boxe but never in a gym where there's no honor. THIS IS THE NOBLE ART,do you know why they call it NOBLE ART? BECAUSE YOU DON'T HAVE TO HIT THE OPPONENT WHEN HE IS ON THE GROUND! HONOR FIRST!

            Nobody put a gun to these dudes heads and told them to go in the ring. They saw an opportunity to get their names out their and went for it. Now they see an opportunity to make some money and they are going for it.

            I think it should be assumed that if you are fighting at Mayweathers gym there will be cameras every once and a while, and if you don't want to be filmed just get up and leave.

              Its interesting that some near do well always has this perspective (above) but alas! it informs us about why the law works the way it does. The fact is, many people think like this poster. "Hey man when I put the gun on the table, nobody forced you to pick it up when I triple dared you!"

              Sorry charlie fact is? under the law both parties are somewhat responsible. In this situation Floyd provided the means, that makes him a participant. If everyone was absolved when they provided the means for people of low intellect to damage each other....the world could be a very dangerous place. "Hey man I just offered him 50 grand to kill the guy who cheated on my wife, but I didn't force him to do it! I was only kidding."

              The law has to protect everyone and even the appearance of duress (whether Mayweather did in fact say if the guy left the ring he would be attacked, or not....does not preclude the fact that Floyd provided the motive, the opportunity and the means for this situation to get ugly.

                All trollin aside....

                The smaller brother is seen in the show saying "put my **** back on" as in put my head guard back on , I wanna keep fighting.

                Now they suing mayweather? Lol. If mayweather wasn't rich they wouldn't.

                Ridiculous

                If they had an issue, they should have addressed it then

                And I was one of the people criticising the sparring methods with insecure fl0mos who have no clue what they talking about like larryxxx who think it's normal to have 30 min rounds with no breaks involving non-elite guys

                  The plaintiffs' attorney is filing the suit pro bono? Somebody please confirm and shock me.

                  To the Rahman brothers: you like to invite your moms to venues where you're forced to labor under duress?

                  Get thee to a nunnery....
                  A lawyer wouldn't take the case if it was weak, try reading Rahman claimed he was injured that being Floyds gym he responsible just as an Employer is responsible for you being injured in his business

                    You have never been in gyms I see no elite guy is going to risk injury by going 30 minutes straight the most I've seen is 4 minute rounds
