An article saying that rapper T.I. allegedly “shot up” a Floyd Mayweather tour bus, leaving two people dead, is fake.
The article was posted on Cream BMP Daily, a website that posts fake, “satirical” news.
“Floyd Mayweather’s bus was shot up by an unmarked car early this afternoon to which two have been pronounced dead and Mayweather treated for minor injuries,” the fake article reads. It adds: “‘Mayweather had to know his shoulder roll wouldn’t stop a bullet’ One of his friends who says he insisted that Floyd not get involved with street guys like rapper TI.”
The disclaimer for the website reads, “CreamBmp.com Written by comedian CREAM. This website is comprised of satire and parody of current news and urban culture. For entertainment purposes only.”
Another portion says, “All reports and other information on this page may or may not be 100% accurate. It’s not news, it’s entertainment. All other comments are my personal opinion, but try not to take the [expletive] seriously and come at me with that [expletive], because I will and do sue. I’m just a young [expletive] tryna get rich.”
The article appears to be making fun of an altercation between Mayweather and TI at a Fatburger in Las Vegas over the weekend, according to TMZ.
“T.I. never intended to get into a fight with Floyd Mayweather Sunday night in Las Vegas ... sources close to the rapper tell TMZ -- but Tip was definitely pissed about Money possibly getting close to his wife,” the TMZ article says.
