Floyd Mayweather faces felony charges in Las Vegas

Mayweather, 49, was charged in April with theft and drawing a check without sufficient funds with the intent to defraud, according to court records. Prosecutors allege that in December 2024, Mayweather wrote a $200,000 check to the Las Vegas designer resale store Gold and Beyond, despite having insufficient funds in his account.

Mayweather's attorney and representatives did not immediately return requests for comment. The felony charges come as Mayweather faces other legal battles, including a lawsuit in New York over alleged failure to pay rent and financial disputes with jewelers. He also filed a lawsuit in New York against his former business manager, alleging a fraud scheme.

Earlier this year, Mayweather announced his return to competitive boxing this summer. He was scheduled to participate in the "Battle of the Legends" boxing match on June 27 in Athens, Greece.
