Justin Bieber's BFF Floyd Mayweather didn't want any mouthy females killing his vibe at the big fight tonight so he had his people block the credentials of ESPN/HBO's Michelle Beadle and CNN's Rachel Nichols.
Both reporters were banned from the MGM Grand Arena by Mayweather's team because they pulled a Mo'Nique and didn't play the game. The game for television sports reporters is to kiss Money Mayweather's ass, but Beadle and Nichols have both reported on his disturbing history of domestic violence.
Mayweather's history of violence against women includes several physical assaults on five different women (or "females" as Mayweather likes to call them) that resulted in a citation or arrest. In 2010 he severely beat Josie Harris, his ex-girlfriend and the mother of three of his children, while telling his kids that he'd "beat their asses" if they called the police.

No fight for me or @MichelleDBeadle. Mayweather's team told my producer the camp was blocking my credential. https://t.co/JTjjXadPp8
