  • A news report featuring footage of boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. walking into a court room was recirculated in July 2017 along with the inaccurate claim that the boxer had been arrested and that his much-hyped August 2017 fight against UFC star Connor McGregor had been cancelled. The video was published to the web site Top Buzz under the title McGregor vs Mayweather FIGHT IS OFF! Mayweather ARRESTED!! LIVE FOOTAGE: This video actually comes from 2012 and documents the start of Mayweather's 90-day prison sentence stemming from the boxer's September 2010 arrest for domestic violence. The Associated Press reported at the time: Mayweather has been accused of, and charged with various crimes throughout his career. A 2015 CNN article asked Why do we ignore Mayweather's domestic abuse? and listed some of the boxer's run-ins with the law: However, we found no reports of Mayweather having been arrested in 2017, and his August 2017 fight against Connor McGreggor has not been cancelled.
