Floyd Mayweather has come to Diddy’s defense amid allegations that he sexually assaulted several women.
During an appearance on “The Pivot Podcast” earlier this week, Mayweather refused to express criticism over the Diddy allegations, saying “mistakes happen” when referring to the music mogul.
āIām not gonna speak bad about P. Diddy,ā Mayweather said. āāCause he still a Black man. Mistakes happen. And I canāt say if it is or not a mistake, but things happen in life. And P. Diddyās business is P. Diddyās business. Itās not my job or anybody elseās job to go on the internet and stomp him and kick a man while heās down.”
Mayweather went further in his defense of Diddy, suggesting that if his daughter was assaulted it would be a “choice.”
āMy take on it is: itās not my business,” he continued on the podcast. “I donāt think itās right at all and I donāt condone it. Even if that happened to my daughter, I would be hurt but thatās a choice that my daughter made.ā
Mayweather’s comments come after Diddy was accused of sexual assault by several women, including his ex-girlfriend Cassie. Diddy has maintained his innocence and settled a lawsuit filed against him by Cassie in November.
50 Cent was among those who slammed Mayweather over his recent podcast appearance.
“They didnāt even ask him about this, Champ is you stupid or is you dumb? Get me the fuck out ya head, you sound like a hater. DIDDY DO IT ? COMING soon.” 50 Cent captioned a clip of the podcast he shared on Instagram.
