Boxing champion
Floyd Mayweather, who wrestled the Big Show in the co-main event of WrestleMania 24, was arrested last night in Las Vegas, according to TMZ.com.

The arrest was in connection with an a warrant stemming from assault allegations, where Mayweather was said to have poked a security guard in the face. A security guard was patrolling Mayweather's gated community at the time and says Mayweather poked him when confronted about a parking violation.

Mayweather was reportedly at a casino on the Vegas strip when an employee recognized him and called the Las Vegas police.

He faces a maximum of 6 months in jail if convicted of the assault.

And here is exclusive comments from Big Show.

I guessed right.

We're never going to get the Mayweather Pacquiao fight.

Wait, wait... Mayweather pokes a security guard and could get jailtime. Hogan pokes Nash and gets the World Heavyweight Championship.

WHAT IS THIS WORLD COMING TO?

That's why you aim for the chest, not the face.

I believe the more appropriate reaction is:

[Krimzon]

Floyd Money has turned into a complete joke. If he's not running from Manny, he's bullying/threatening his own family and/or security.

[SAJ Forth]

Odd news.

And here I was expecting Bob Uecker

So wait............a poke is considered assault?

Now if he punched the man, I could consider that assault with a deadly weapon (if a boxer punches someone, his hands are considered deadly weapons), but a poke is a poke. It is an annoyance and the guy is merely provoking you.

[FUNK_US/BRODUS]

I suppose if he goes to jail, Pacquiao cant find him there.

My guess is that he put his hand on him in a provokative manner, if there is a touch, then it is considered an assault. I know I may be going overboard but that is how the system works.

Actually, it's battery if you actually make contact. Assault is when it's just a threatening gesture. And it's defined as any offensive touching, not just a punch. It's the lowest of misdemeanor battery, but it's battery nonetheless.

When I go to heaven, the first thing I'm gonna ask God is why he chose to give complete doucheturds like Mayweather athletic ability and money/fame.

[MAGGLE]

Mayweather has so much money that he can poke every security guard in Las Vegas in the Eye and still have fun in the next Casino.

[8-BitAssassin]

I wish a rich guy would assault me in such a minor, nothing but irritating, but still legally binding sort of way. Lawsuit!
