Tyga has been named in a $4 million RICO lawsuit against Floyd Mayweather filed by Miami-based jeweler Leonard Sulaymanov.
Sulaymanov says Mayweather and The Money Team (TMT) violated the RICO Act. He alleges the boxer bought several items of jewelry from him in June 2021, including several luxury watches, a diamond necklace, and a diamond ring, but that Mayweather paid $267,000 in two installments before leaving Miami.
Two weeks later, he encountered Mayweather and Tyga in Las Vegas, and Sulaymanov says he brought the boxer 10 Rolex Presidential Anniversary watches, a Rolex Day-Date 40, and a Richard Mille.
Tyga agreed to pay the jeweler $79,000 for a Rolex Day Date.
“As days passed and no wires were being received, [Sulaymanov] got concerned and started exchanging text messages with Defendants through their agent, [Jona] Rechnitz, about when payment could be expected,” the suit read, adding that Mayweather made several purchased and again, failed to pay for them all.
Tyga also failed to pay for his Rolex.
Sulaymanov says to date, Mayweather owes him $3,883,657.
