Floyd Mayweather wants to set the record straight about a rumor going around. He’s letting everyone know that he did not see Tupac get killed.
On Thursday, Money Mayweather made clear statement’s on Instagram about the rumor saying he witnessed Tupac’s murder.
“In 1996, when Tupac Shakur was killed, I lived in the Meridian Apartments located on Flamingo and Koval Ln., which just so happens to be the area where Tupac was shot,” he began, revealing he once lived on the same grounds where the legendary rapper was killed,” the boxer said.
“I have never said I witnessed the shooting. All of these false accusations stem from me sharing the location of the shooting with John Singleton due to my familiarity of the area since I lived there,” he continued, highlighting how he believes the misunderstanding came to be, before putting the gossip to bed altogether.”
“This does not mean I witnessed Tupac’s shooting,” he added. “John Singleton was making a documentary or movie about Tupac, so he reached out to me asking where Flamingo and Koval Ln were located. John was my friend, so I showed him this location with no hesitation.
“The location of Tupac’s shooting is public knowledge and me living near there was just a coincidence. I did not witness Tupac Shakur’s death.”
Apparently, the story got twisted after a 2014 video resurfaced of Floyd seemingly admitting to witnessing when Pac’ was murdered at the intersection of Flamingo and Koval on September 7, 1996.
At the time, Mayweather would’ve been 19 years old, HiphopDX reported.
Tupac Shakur was fatally shot that night as he was heading to Death Row Records Suge Knight’s Club 662 in Las Vegas when a white Cadillac pulled up next to his vehicle and fired shots into the passenger’s side, the outlet reported.
He was shot four times. He died six days later from internal bleeding.
