Floyd Mayweather Jr.'s daughter avoids prison after pleading guilty to 2020 stabbing

Retired boxing legend Floyd Mayweather Jr.'s daughter avoided prison after pleading guilty to stabbing a woman at the home of rapper YoungBoy in 2020.

Iyanna Mayweather, 22, admitted to the stabbing, but received only a Deferred Adjudication of Guilt from the Texas judge and was sentenced to six years of probation. Provided she stays out of trouble, Iyanna could have the arrest expunged from her record within two years.

'We resolved the case between Iyanna and the State,' her attorney Ken Schaffer told XXL. 'The agreement calls for Iyanna to be on deferred adjudication for six years after which she will have no felony conviction and the case will be dismissed. She is eligible to have the deferred adjudication end after two years pending her good behavior.'

Iyanna claimed to be defending herself in April of 2020, when she allegedly grabbed a pair of knives and charged at Lapattra Lashai Jacobs in YoungBoy's kitchen, according to TMZ's reporting at the time.

Jacobs suffered lacerations on her arm and subsequently underwent surgery to repair the damage.

Iyanna was upset after arriving at YoungBoy's home to find Jacobs. After telling Jacobs that she was the rapper's fiancée, the argument turned physical. According to Iyanna, Jacobs had pulled her hair at one point, prior to the stabbing.

'Although we believe that Iyanna was defending herself after being attacked, we thought this was the safest resolution for her,' Schaffer said of his client's guilty plea. 'This is especially true since her boyfriend and his bodyguards refused to testify; probably due to their own legal problems.'

YoungBoy has several firearms-related arrests and probation violations. He and Iyanna have a child together, but the couple has since split.

Jacobs showed off her injuries on social media in May of 2020, and although she didn't reveal her scars, she did show her bandaged arm and complained of severe pain.

Of course, Floyd is no stranger to legal trouble. The undefeated multi-weight champion has several domestic violence arrests and ultimately served two months in prison back in 2012.
