Boxer Floyd Mayweather has invented a whole new fucked up way of getting revenge on an ex. This week reality TV show, _All Acces_s revealed that he had recently broke up with fiancée Shantel Jackson. And in a bizarre show of sick revenge, the fighter then uploaded a photo of what he claimed was Shantel’s pre-abortion sonogram to Instagram and Facebook.
The photo, which shows a hazy image of two foetuses, was accompanied by the comment: ‘The real reason me and Shantel Christine Jackson @missjackson broke up was because she got a abortion (sic), and I'm totally against killing babies. She killed our twin babies.’
He then added some handy hashtags to the caption: ‘#ShantelJackson#FloydMayweather#TheMoneyTeam#TMT’
After thousands of comments of hate flooded the comment section under each photo, he deleted them. It makes us feel pretty iffy – first up, there’s no confirmation that Shantel had an abortion. Secondly, even if she did, that’s totally her choice. Thirdly, what exactly is he setting out to do with this public shaming of her? Even if she had had an abortion without talking to him, we can’t see there being much to be gained by him griping so publicly about it.
It looks like Mayweather's got form for being a pretty heinous individual. He previously served two months of an 87-day sentence in a Las Vegas jail after being convicted of beating up his then-girlfriend.
And he’s keeping some fantastic company – Justin Bieber is expected to support him at his upcoming Vegas fightmuch to the glee of gamblers who’ve bet on Floyd to beat opponent Marcos Maidana. Though there are ‘no questions’ he’s distracted, according to one of the fight’s promoters, every time Justin’s by his side, he wins a fight.
Ugh, well when it comes to to prove he's not an insensitive prick, he's already lost that one.
