if she was pregnant by him and she got the abortion without his knowledge, he's got a right to be emotional about it, but handling it like this is so fucking gross.

If they broke up because of an abortion that she hid from him, that's his business as well assuming it was his child. He can say that's why we broke up as much as he wants, he didn't break any law
27. "You can speak on abortion and the situation in general." In response to Reply # 24
but you are not allowed to publicize private facts and post private medical information - even if it's true. This is akin to posting somebody's HIV status blood tests w/ out their permission. You have no legal right to do that.

He posted privilege medical information with a photo of her uterus. That's not the same as saying "My girl had an abortion and I'm mad about it" -- You have no right to publicize someone's privileged medical information in this manner.

you are extra emotional about this obviously because of your stance on abortion. Relax.
Last time I'm pointing this out to you:
It's (legally) ok to speak out against an abortion that his girl had - and to express disagreement w/ the decision -- it is *not* ok to post her privileged medical records on facebook so that the world can see the medical records/photos of her uterus/abortion. It's really quite simple. Stop being church emo.

HIPAA doesn't apply to everybody, just practitioners whoever gave Mayweather access to the images (if it's not his girl herself) may have broken the law but he can do whatever he wants
that said, he's a piece of shit for this for sure
*correction: he may not do whatever he wants, but I don't think HIPAA has anything to do with

buy....even though that could very well happen.
All i'm specifically saying is that more buzz equals more buys. If this creates buzz, it will create more buys, whether the buyer loves or hates pac.
Same reason why musicians, actors etc will gladly take negative press when they have an album, movie etc coming out. Its free advertising.

30. ""Publication of Private Facts" - well known legal doctrine" In response to Reply # 26
"The legal claim known as "publication of private facts" is a species of invasion of privacy. You commit this kind of invasion of privacy by publishing private facts about an individual, the publication of which would be offensive to a reasonable person. This legal claim can only be successful, however, if the facts in question are not legitimately newsworthy. So, for instance, if you disclose the fact that your neighbor has an embarrassing health condition, you might be liable for publication of private facts. If, however, this medical condition is particularly relevant to some topic of public interest -- say, your neighbor's fitness to serve in public office, a court might find that your publication is lawful. Determining what facts are of legitimate public concern is often difficult to determine, so you may want to get permission before disclosing potentially embarrassing information about an individual you interview or write about. If your work sometimes involves this kind of publication, then you should see the Publication of Private Facts section for further details."

It is illegal, which is why he promptly took it down after one of his legal cronies was probably like "you just possibly cost yourself even more $$ in court by letting P-Reala corky thatcher out on Facebook"

Let's see.
Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress? Leaking privileged medical info to millions of people on social media? Invading the most private place one can imagine (the uterus w/ photos/name/medical technique used) for the world to see? Zero argument that it's "newsworthy" and thus permissible because of the public's interest to know?

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.
I think his controversies have probably improved his bottom line in pretty much every instance.
There's no commissioner who will fine or suspend him for extracurricular shit like this. He already doesn't have (or rely on) ad revenues to be the richest athlete in the world. His revenues are directly tied to PPV sales, and it seems like the notoriety = sales formula has yet to fail him.
So as long as decency just isn't that important to him, what are his disincentives? Maybe there's an argument related to long-term profitability, but I'm not sure it's a strong one.

Floyd's a smart, good person - I truly believe that in the time I've spoken w/ him and what I've heard about him -- but it still remains that he's a child in some ways and hasn't developed into manhood - but considering his background and how he grew up, it's hard to condemn from the comfort of the keyboard.
He needs wise advisers and unfortunately he has none. He only has people singularly focused on business around him.

75. "I'd be shocked if this was anything more than pure publicity stunt" In response to Reply # 0
I'm no more in Floyd's head than the next man, but is there more than one good explanation for why he did what he did *this week*? He's not a dummy. Look at what he did with one Facebook post:
Boxing fans are asking if this might make his fight more intriguing
Media members and the general public are talking about him way more.
How often does OKP cumulatively dedicate like 250 posts to a boxer?
Today his name is in the mouths of millions of people who would otherwise not be talking about him, and many of them have now thought about his upcoming fight as a byproduct of all the sensational stuff.
No way that's incidental. I think it's reasonable to assume that any arguments regarding Floyd's morality, legality, shamelessness, indecency, and/or emotional well-being--however well-conceived--should be understood to be a dance for a puppet master.
77. "I think that's the very favorable way to look at it for Floyd" In response to Reply # 75
I think equally (if not more) plausible is that this is Floyd spiraling a bit out of control w/ his emotions and using that to try to magnify the attention surrounding him for this fight, something which he has become accustomed to and craves.
But to me this degree of wild-out is indicative of some legitimate inter-personal issues that are left unresolved in his personal life.
79. "Would it matter if the fetuses posted weren't Floyd's??!?!?" In response to Reply # 0
Legal eagles???!
Seriously...
What if he was under the impression she was pregnant for him...but he knows that she isn't
...and she is trying to maintain the lie???
Does that mean anything? Is it still actionable?
Like say for instance she tried to leverage son in an argument or something and threw that paperwork in his face or he found it while catching her in a lie about it knowing that those kids aren't his???
I'm really interested to know if there is some way other than her refusing to press charges that he has a defense against this...
That shit is crazy!!!!
"Inspectah Deck, he's like...he's like that dude thatta sit back and watch you play yourself and all that right? And see you sit there and know you lyin; and he'll take you to court after that, cuz he the Inspectah."
80. "Really the one defense he could have is that she consented" In response to Reply # 79
to the publication of the private facts of her abortion. Another defense would be that the disclosure of her abortion was newsworthy and there was a significant public interest/utility in knowing it - which of course there isn't.
She could certainly press charges and he'd likely have to settle for a considerable amount as it's really an egregious & illegal act of callous.
The speculation about whether the baby/twins were his is immaterial because there is no way to know for certain whether he actually was the father.
81. "Would it be newsworthy if the children weren't his..." In response to Reply # 80

82. "RE: Would it be newsworthy if the children weren't his..." In response to Reply # 81
>...and she "disclosed" the abortion to somehow leverage him?
Since there's no way to determine the DNA of the underdeveloped fetus(es) - no. And "newsworthy" as a legal term refers to something that the public has a legitimate interest to know - such as whether a govt. official is lying or committing fraud/criminal acts -- newsworthy (as a legal term of art) does not mean something that simply lights up the social media sphere.
>I mean it's terrible all around..... > >No one emerges from that smelling sweet... > >I could only imagine what a judge hearing this would be >like....
Wouldn't be good for Floyd. The key here is the sensitive nature of the private medical records and the invasion of her privacy. Even if she gave Floyd the medical records - he still has no right to publicize those records because they are still privileged - and she only consented to him seeing them, not the world at large.
