Boxing legend Floyd Mayweather is facing felony charges in Nevada over allegations that he used a bad cheque to purchase a luxury watch worth $200,000.

According to ESPN, the Hall of Famer has been charged with theft and intent to defraud following a complaint linked to the purchase of an Audemars Piguet watch in Las Vegas.

Court documents allege that Mayweather wrote the cheque from a Wells Fargo account on December 31, 2024, despite allegedly knowing the account lacked sufficient funds or credit to cover the payment.
