Floyd Mayweather Jr and Melissa Brim Love Story
Floyd and Melissa met in the early ’90s. Iyanna’s mother was just 16 years old and working at the Rio Hotel and Casino when the two lovebirds met. Her friend introduced her to a man who presented himself as Shaheed and asked for her number – he called her the next day and said that his real name was Floyd Mayweather Jr.
The two started dating, with Melissa on seventh heaven as Floyd showered her with expensive gifts, clothing, make-up, and jewelry. Unfortunately, problems started brewing in their romance, and the two got into an on-again-off-again relationship. However, Melissa still became pregnant with Iyanna and gave birth to her in 2000. For the next five years, Floyd didn’t see Iyanna, as her parents weren’t on good terms.

Iyanna Mayweather and NBA Youngboy – Relationship Timeline
Iyanna and the famous rapper’s romance dates back to 2018. However, from the very beginning it was a rocky one, to say the least. In March of the following year, Iyanna slashed tires on the NBA Youngboy’s car as the flawed duo had a heated argument. Later the same year, the famed rapper made a diss track aimed at Floyd Mayweather’s daughter, entitled “Dirty Iyanna” a play on Michael Jackson’s hit “Dirty Diana”, in which he described her past actions.
Still, the couple got back together in 2020, after which she became pregnant with their son, Kentrell Gaulden Jr., born on 9 January 2021.
Stabbing LaPattra Lashai
In April 2020, Iyanna had an altercation with one of YoungBoy’s children’s mother, Lapattra Jacobs, who was at YoungBoy’s house for a few days, living there without Iyanna’s knowledge, while she was in a relationship with the said rapper. Once Lapattra came down the stairs, and Iyanna saw her, an altercation arose. Iyanna said that it was Jacobs who first attacked her by pulling her hair and throwing her outside of the house. The duo then ran to the kitchen, where the whole incident continued.
Iyanna told Jacobs that she was YoungBoy’s fiancée and that she should leave the house. However, Lapattra returned the same measure, saying that Iyanna was the one who should go.
Iyanna grabbed two knives, and after Jacobs came at her, she charged with one blade and inflicted several non-life-threatening wounds to her arm. Police arrested her, while Jacobs was taken to hospital as the emergency medical technicians arrived.
Iyanna pleaded guilty, and is now awaiting her sentence, though it’s reported that she’ll receive six years of probation, and 80 hours of community service.
However, she isn’t off the hook yet, as Lapattra has sued Mayweather for damages, including physical pain and mental anguish from the attack, plus an undisclosed amount of money.
