Did Shantel Jackson Spin The Block For Floyd Mayweather?
As mentioned, Shantel posted Floyd on his actual 49th birthday. Rather than shed light on whether she’s back with Money Mayweather, she kept the mystery going in the caption.
“Help me wish my Ex a very Happy Birthday
,” Shantel Jackson wrote.Meanwhile, in the video, a woman presumed to be Shantel is asking Floyd to “flex” his bare chest and ab muscles. With a smile on his face, he repeatedly responded, “I ain’t gotta flex…you know what it is.” Her birthday shoutout collected over 4,600 comments in 17 hours, and folks are still adding their two cents. As of Wednesday, Shantel Jackson has yet to clarify whether she’s sipping from Floyd’s tea once again! The birthday man also hasn’t commented on the shoutout.
While Jackson’s birthday post turned heads, it’s allegedly not the only recent time the exes have linked up. In late August, footage surfaced of Floyd onboard his yacht with a mystery woman, whom online users speculated was Shantel. Neither of them clarified the speculation. Not long before that, she had reportedly posted about “never spinnin’ the block,” per Complex.

Yaya Mayweather Reacts To Shantel’s Birthday Love
After Shantel’s post for Floyd got the viral treatment, another Mayweather slid into the comment section. Yaya Mayweather was feeling Jackson’s energy, writing, “No f*cking way…I love it,” with a laughing emoticon. Shantel liked her commented and Yaya circled back with another one.

For context, Floyd Mayweather previously announced that him and Mike Tyson, who is 59, will face off in an exhibition this spring before allegedly returning to the professional ring with Manny Pacquiao in the fall.
Why Did Shantel Sue Floyd Mayweather Over 10 Years Ago?
The link-up, as said, is causing a lil’ whiplash for die-hard Floyd Mayweather fans. That’s because Shantel called that man everything but a child of God in her 2014 lawsuit. At the time, she sued him in Los Angeles, alleging assault, battery, defamation and invasion of privacy. Additionally, she accused the world champion of false imprisonment and civil harassment, per the LA Times.
Shantel’s lawsuit claimed that in December 2013 she told Floyd she was pregnant by him with twins, and he used the news to emotionally torture her. She alleged he became verbally abusive after she refused to relocate from Los Angeles to Las Vegas, where he lived. The pregnancy terminated in January 2014. Months later, in May, Floyd Mayweather told the world via social media that his relationship with Shantel Jackson ended because she had an abortion and he was “against killing babies.” That post, Shantel claimed, was retaliation for her refusal to meet his demands. After filing her lawsuit, Jackson had reportedly read a prepared statement speaking on their relationship.
“I loved Floyd deeply, but he continued to disappoint and intentionally hurt me. … I have been embarrassed and humiliated more than I can ever imagine by Floyd, whom I once called my best friend and fiancée,” Shantel said, as quoted by the LA Times. “It was with a heavy heart that I finally realized the only way to set the record straight and achieve justice for what he has done to me, is filing this lawsuit.”
Her civil suit sought unspecified damages. By 2021, a report from Radar Online said Shantel had dropped the lawsuit after privately settling with Floyd.
