Now That Floyd Mayweather Is In Jail For Domestic Violence Has He Learned His Lesson


Floyd Mayweather's mug shot

Boxer, Floyd Mayweather, is currently serving 3-months in jail,  for beating up the mother of his children, Josie Harris, in front of their young children. He surrendered on June 1, 2012, to serve his sentence at the Clark County Detention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Mayweather got off easy considering the beating he unleashed on defenseless Harris. However, it should be noted, at least Mayweather was given jail time, as R&B singer, Chris Brown, received no time for beating up girlfriend Rihanna, after she hit him.


Josie Harris

The question is has Mayweather learned his lesson. Harris is still in his life, due to their children and he was so unrepentant and cocky in court and disrespectful to the judge. Mayweather's attitude was bad and he was nonchalant about the entire thing. Will there be a repeat of the violent 2010 incident that has landed him in jail or will he keep his hands to himself. It is my hope that it never happens again. Woman or man, no one deserves to be beaten up. Domestic violence is wrong.

What's Really Going On With Justin Bieber Who Finds Himself In Trouble With The Law

 He Has Not Been Himself This Year


Justin Bieber

Justin Bieber is currently under police investigation for beating up a photographer that tried to take his picture on a public street. Bieber used to have a squeaky clean image that has been tarnished this year by several events.

He was photographed on a public beach getting lewd and groping his girlfriend, Selena Gomez, who is a Disney actress of all things. He has been giving profane, inappropriate press interviews that appeared in GQ and on the Huffington Post. He's been caught ripping off the copyrighted works of pop star, Justin Timberlake. He's been hanging out with and publicly supporting domestic violence boxer Floyd Mayweather.

Now this latest incident regarding him beating up a paparazzo, has damaged his image even more. Engaging in the aforementioned conduct places Bieber in danger of alienating some of his core audience, whose parents do not take well to such poor examples being presented to their children.

Photographer's Assault Complaint Against Justin Bieber Sent To Prosecutor As Criminal Case

Could Bieber Face Six Months In Jail Or Will There Be A Payoff

18-year-old pop star Justin Bieber stands accused of physically battering a photographer at The Commons mall in Calabasas, California this past Sunday, while driving with actress girlfriend, Selena Gomez. Authorities have been requesting Bieber and Gomez report to the police station for questioning.

The paparazzo that tried to take the couple's picture by standing near their car, was allegedly beaten up by Bieber, because he would not move from in front of the vehicle. The photographer was taken to the hospital via ambulance, after complaining of pain to his upper body, reportedly inflicted by Bieber, who fled the scene before cops arrived.  

The website TMZ is reporting, the matter has been referred to the prosecutor's office in Los Angeles as a criminal case. A misdemeanor battery charge could result in six months in jail, but as it is Bieber's first offense in America that is not likely. As Bieber is also a foreigner in America, this incident could impact his immigration status, but as it is not a felony, deportation is not likely. If Bieber continues to accrue offenses, it will impact his immigration status (Bieber is a native of Canada).

Bieber has been acting strangely of late. He gave a GQ magazine interview using crude and foul sexual language not befitting any role model. He appeared in the ring at a boxing match supporting womanbeating boxer, Floyd Mayweather, who unleashed a cruel physical assault on the mother of his children.    

Bieber has been trying to show the world that he is an adult, but this is not the way to do it. To show you've grown up, you illustrate through your actions that you are mindful of others and their rights. You use your head instead of your fists (no, I don't mean head butt people, but staying calm and calling the police in threatening or harassing situations). You accept responsibility for your conduct and choose a course of action that makes a positive impact. 

You don't follow the misdeeds and bad examples of questionable characters in your circle, such as mentors Usher Raymond or Floyd Mayweather. That's not what being an adult is about. Such conduct may seem cool at first, but choices have consequences. What happens when it lands you into serious trouble. Many impressionable people see you as a role model. Don't listen to those you call mentor, regarding poor conduct that lets fans down.

Is Singer Usher Living Vicariously Through Pop Protégé Justin Bieber

Is He Leading Him Down The Right Path


Justin Bieber and baby mama beater Floyd Mayweather, are mentioned in the following MTV article

A recent candid interview with MTV gave the impression that R&B singer, Usher, 33, is living vicariously through his pop protégé Justin Bieber, 18, in trying to recapture his teen years. Is this helping or hurting the young star that has found himself in a bit of controversy.

Usher stated of Bieber's rise to fame, "I relive every bit of it, from the screaming fans and the first reactions, shutting down the malls. The first reaction is like no other. To be able to be there, to be there with him and go through those emotions and see that shock for the first time [is exciting]."
 

Usher

Usher should be careful in trying to live vicariously through Bieber. Let him make his own decisions and don't steer him wrong any more, as you have in a few decisions. Bieber's latest interview with GQ magazine features him using very foul and crude sexual language that sets a bad example.

Bieber's sexual relationship with girlfriend, Selena Gomez, when he was underage, also caused intense scrutiny. It should be noted, it followed the same pattern Usher's life did at that age. Bieber has professed he is a Christian, which is good, but he must realize in order to live up to what God expects of us, we must eschew certain things.

Justin Bieber Is Misguided About The Man He Calls His Mentor Floyd Mayweather


Justin Bieber and Floyd Mayweather

Justin Bieber attended a Las Vegas fight of boxer Floyd Mayweather this past weekend. According to reports, Bieber referred to Mayweather as his "mentor" and stated he is a "hard-working and clean-cut guy." No he is not. I had nothing against Mayweather until I read of his brutal beating of the mother of his children, Josie Harris.


Josie Harris 

Domestic violence is ugly. What's almost as bad is, Mayweather was unrepentant in court, snickering at the judge as she spoke about his jail sentence, which is a short one, much like his temper. Such violence is not something to aspire to, as it is wrong and hurts others. The mother of Mayweather's children and his kids will remember the violence of that night for the rest of their lives. There's nothing to misunderstand. He beat her and showed no remorse. Do not follow his example.

Floyd Mayweather, Jr. American Professional Boxer

Floyd Joy Mayweather, Jr. (born Floyd Sinclair; February 24, 1977) is an American professional boxer. He is a five-division world champion, where he has won seven world titles, as well as the lineal championship in three different weight classes. He is a two-time The Ring "Fighter of the Year" winning the award in 1998 and 2007, and also Boxing Writers Association of America (BWAA) "Fighter of the Year" in 2007. He is undefeated as a professional boxer.
Currently, Mayweather is the WBC welterweight champion. He is also rated as the best pound for pound boxer in the world by most sporting news and boxing websites, including Sports Illustrated, ESPN, Fox Sports, Yahoo! Sports and About.com.
Boxing has been a part of Mayweather's life since he was in diapers. When other children were throwing baseballs or footballs, he was throwing punches. He never seriously considered any other profession. "I think my grandmother saw my potential first," Mayweather said, smiling. "When I was young, I told her, 'I think I should get a job.' She said, 'No, just keep boxing.' "
"When I was about 8 or 9, I lived in New Jersey with my mother and we were seven deep in one bedroom and sometimes we didn't have electricity", Mayweather says. "When people see what I have now, they have no idea of where I came from and how I didn't have anything growing up."
Mayweather was born in Grand Rapids, Mich., into a family of boxers. His father Floyd Mayweather Sr. was a former welterweight contender who fought Hall of Famer Sugar Ray Leonard and his uncles Jeff Mayweather and Roger Mayweather were all professional boxers, with Roger Floyd’s current trainer  winning two world championships. 
Mayweather was born with his mother's last name, but his last name would change to Mayweather shortly thereafter. Mayweather's father, Floyd Sr., had a side job - selling drugs. That job made him a mean taskmaster at home. His punishment of little Floyd was often harsh and brutal, according to Mayweather Jr. He says that when he was a baby, his father used him as a shield to keep his brother-in-law from shooting him.
Mayweather fought his first professional bout on October 11, 1996 against fellow newcomer Roberto Apodaca who was knocked out in round 2. Mayweather's trainer at the time was his uncle, Roger Mayweather, because Floyd Mayweather, Sr. was still imprisoned after having been convicted of illegal drug trafficking in 1993. Mayweather, Sr. took over as Mayweather, Jr.'s trainer when he was released from prison (after Mayweather, Jr.'s fourteenth fight a second-round knockout of Sam Girard). From 1996 to early 1998, Mayweather won most of his fights by knockout or TKO.
On June 7, 2011, Mayweather announced via Twitter that he was set to fight WBC Welterweight Champion & The Ring #2 ranked Welterweight, Victor Ortiz on September 17, 2011. Ortiz was Mayweather's first challenger in 16 months. Floyd Mayweather's adviser, Leonard Ellerbe, announced on November 2, 2011, that Mayweather will be returning to the ring on May 5, 2012, at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
