Floyd Mayweather has found himself on the wrong end of some court cases that have left him vilified by many in the realm of sports fans and media. So it is peculiar that, of all things, the thing that might abruptly short-circuit his boxing career and reputation is the alleged pilfering of a cell phone.
Mayweather was arrested for grand larceny Friday in Las Vegas on an allegation that he took a phone belonging to Josie Harris, the mother of three of his four children, during an altercation early Thursday at her home.
Mayweather, who was released on $3,000 bond, faces the felony charge because the iPhone was valued at more than $250, according to police spokesman Bill Cassell.
