Beadle has been very vocal in her criticism of Mayweather's problems with domestic abuse, Nichols grilled Mayweather in an interview on CNN asking Money tough questions on the same subject.

Mayweather was sentenced to 90 days in jail for battery on his ex-girlfriend in 2010. His son penned a chilling letter which detailed the incident.

UPDATE: Mayweather's public relations have since said neither woman’s credentials have been revoked.
