Boxing champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. is facing accusations that he ordered the beating of 2 former employees in retaliation for stealing jewelry from his Las Vegas cribs.
According to TMZ, the 2 men were hired by Floyd to do some work on the homes when expensive items came up missing.
Sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ Sports ... the two men had been hired to work on Floyd's Vegas homes ... but when jewelry went missing, Floyd pointed the finger at them.
We're told the men claim they were contacted several weeks ago and instructed to meet Floyd at an off-site location.
When the men arrived, they claim Floyd was waiting for them -- along with a number of his "people" -- who proceeded to beat the living crap out of them with various weapons, including clubs.
Our sources say the attack was so brutal the men could have easily died. Both men had broken arms and legs and were hospitalized for several days.
One source put it this way, "It was some 'Breaking Bad' sh*t."
If the accusations are proven to be true, they could result in kidnapping, attempted murder and mayhem charges being filed. However it doesn't appear that either of the victims has gone to police. They both hired lawyers, which may mean they are just looking for a big pay day.
Floyd is scheduled to fight Marcos Maidana on Showtime PPV, May 3. Neither the champ's team or Showtime have commented on the report
