A man has taken legal action against the undefeated boxer Floyd Mayweather, claiming that he was attacked by the boxer's security team. According to court documents, Eduardo Martinez is seeking over $3 million in damages for assault and battery, emotional distress, and negligence.
The lawsuit was first filed in January and has since gained media attention. Martinez is asking for $1.5 million in general damages, $500,000 for future medical expenses, $40,000 for past medical expenses, $300,000 for loss of future earnings, and an additional million in punitive damages. The case was filed in the Los Angeles Superior Court.
According to Martinez, the incident occurred on February 10, 2022, at a Yard House near Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. He claims that Mayweather and his entourage, known as the "Mayweather Money Team," entered the establishment, causing a stir and drawing attention to themselves. Martinez says he pulled out his phone and began recording the group. When Mayweather noticed, he allegedly ordered his security team to stop him from recording.
The lawsuit states that one of Mayweather's bodyguards then approached Martinez and physically struck him, causing him to fall to the ground. The bodyguard reportedly attempted to take Martinez's phone away from him, causing a struggle. Martinez claims that he feared for his life during the altercation.
Martinez also alleges that the staff at Yard House did nothing to help him and allowed the boxer's team to continue the assault. In his lawsuit, he states that the incident resulted in physical injuries and severe mental distress, including suffering, humiliation, and emotional trauma.
As of now, Mayweather has not responded to the allegations in court. The case is ongoing, and further updates are awaited.
