Mayweather spends a lot of time with her father and her siblings. Growing up in the entertainment business, it’s been said that she has her own entertainment goals through music and modeling.

Youngboy and Mayweather’s relationship has been rocky. He’s prided himself on being a ladies man and not settling down with one woman, which has been the subject of many headlines surrounding his relationship with Mayweather.

During one of their breakups, he released a diss-track about Mayweather called “Dirty Iyanna,” sampling Michael Jackson’s “Dirty Diana.” The song details how tumultuous their relationship was at times, with Youngboy rapping,  “Might have to gas all my cars/Don’t come out after dark/I see she won’t leave me alone/She sliced the tires on my car.” 

Youngboy has not released an official statement on the incident but did post a subliminal message on his Twitter account. No one from Mayweather’s camp has spoken out on the matter either.
