Is there an appropriate time for fans to request celebrities’ attention? It didn’t end well on Thanksgiving eve for a fan of Floyd Mayweather.
As Mayweather and his girlfriend exited a store at a Las Vegas Mall, an employee at one of the kiosks nearby approached the champion boxer requesting a photo. According to the employee, Juan Calderon, he wanted to get a picture for a coworker who was afraid to ask. Calderon indicated that Mayweather was rude. In return, Calderon told them that they were “acting like d***s.” Apparently, a member of Mayweather’s crew confronted Calderon about his insults. As seen on the mall footage, the apparent bodyguard is seen throwing a few punches at Calderon. The fan indicated that Mayweather was present when the punches were thrown.
Calderon said he went to the hospital for a CT scan, fortunately, there weren’t any brain injuries. He also filed a police report.
