adminRapper 50 Cent and his entourage have been accused of stealing a Rolex and neck chain worth $250 000 from a jeweller during the Mayweather v Pacquiao fight in Vegas.
Robert Marin, owner of LAX Jewellery, which specialises in diamond-studded bling worn by rappers, says he was in Vegas in order to sell the watch and chain to 50 Cent — real name Curtis Jackson.
Marin says he partied with Jackson before being invited to look at Floyd Mayweather’s gym, where he says he was pistol-whipped by two of Jackson’s security and the items were taken.
According to TMZ, Marin claims to have met with Jackson at Drai’s nightclub in The Cromwell Hotel last Friday night, after the rapper had performed there.
The jeweller says he partied with Jackson and his people into the early hours of Saturday morning, before he was invited to see Floyd Mayweather’s private gym ahead of the fight that night.
However, he claims that once inside the gym, Jackson’s entourage set on him, pistol whipping him in the back of the head and making off with the watch and chain.
Jackson denies the claims, with lawyer Scott Leemon telling TMZ: “On behalf of 50, I can adamantly deny that he or his security had anything to do with these baseless and false allegations.”— Daily Mail.
