Nothing like a good old fashioned beef to kick the week off, right? How about when it’s a beef that’s so stale, it probably needs to be put away forever? This is the case with boxing champion, Floyd Mayweather, and rapper, Clifford ‘T.I.’ Harris. Theirs is the type of animosity that will probably never be settled. And it all stems from Mayweather’s friendship with T.I.’s wife, Tameka ‘Tiny’ Harris.
How The Beef Began
T.I. and Mayweather have had a longstanding beef and that is not necessarily a secret. Back in 2014, the two of them were involved in an altercation in Las Vegas. It all went down at a Fatburger on the Las Vegas strip. Mayweather was inside eating, when T.I. ran up on him; leading to an all out war. TMZ reports that chairs were thrown and a Fatburger employee was injured during the fight. Video (below) of the fiasco also looked like an old school WWF ‘Battle Royale.’
MTV reports that the reason T.I. flew off the handle so quickly, was because of a picture Tiny posted with Mayweather earlier that year.

T.I. approached Mayweather about the photo, accusing the two of them of having something going on. When Mayweather admitted that the two of them were just friends, they both squashed the issue. That is, until the night of their fight, when Tiny posted another photo she had taken during Mayweather’s daughter’s birthday party. T.I. tracked Mayweather down to Fatburger and that’s when all hell broke loose:
“I’m eating at Fatburger and next thing you know, he walk in talking about we need to talk again,” Mayweather stated. “Then a couple of words exchange and people got to pushing and a riot kinda broke out. And then a bunch of chaos and that was basically it.”
This was basically the biggest issue the two celebs encountered, until yesterday in Los Angeles, when T.I.’s rage got the best of him once again…
