In the busy streets of Hatton Garden, a neighborhood known for luxury and expensive jewelry, boxing icon Floyd Mayweather was caught in the middle of an unplanned altercation. Mayweather, who is well-known for his lavish lifestyle and unwavering self-assurance, was in London when anti-Israel demonstrators boarded him outside a diamond store, causing mayhem in the normally calm shopping district.

A lively crowd was seen encircling Mayweather and his group in the footage, which was extensively shared on social media. Although public scrutiny of the 50-0 boxing champion is nothing new, this group’s wrath was sparked by his vocal support for Israel, which he has demonstrated through his humanitarian endeavors.

Floyd Mayweather’s Israeli Charities are touted as reason

Soon after, the altercation intensified as demonstrators yelled hateful statements, including racial epithets. The group tried, but failed, to intimidate the boxer and his team, according to Mayweather’s representatives. “He was never touched,” his representative affirmed, dispelling reports that Mayweather had been hit during the incident.

The stress in the footage is evident as Mayweather and his security detail remain composed and eventually escape the hazardous environment. The legendary boxer demonstrated that his defensive abilities go beyond sports by skillfully avoiding violent altercations despite being used to dodging punches in the ring.
