Yaya Mayweather recently shared nostalgic content about her past relationship with NBA YoungBoy before posting emotional tweets about how people change after incarceration. Fans speculated the messages shaded her ex, the father of her son, who has faced multiple incarcerations. She later clarified a separate tweet from NBA YoungBoy was not about her.
Oh, the drama never sleeps in celeb Twitter—er, X—land! Yaya Mayweather, daughter of boxing legend Floyd Mayweather, has been dipping into nostalgia lately. She posted videos of herself singing along to NBA YoungBoy's tracks and reposted old photos from their time together. In one earlier post, she reflected, “Man all these proposals… and here I am. I haven’t been in a relationship or talked to anybody since the only relationship I’ve been in and that was five years ago.”
But Thursday night brought a shift. Yaya unleashed a series of tweets venting about personal betrayals tied to incarceration. She wrote, “People act totally different when they’re incarcerated than when they have their freedom, you would think it’s 2 completely different people you’re dealing with… When they come around you’ll be forgotten and so will everything you did for them. Instead, they’ll choose the people who were nowhere to be found, ain’t never answered a call, or wrote a d**** letter.” Fans quickly connected the dots to NBA YoungBoy, who's been locked up multiple times and shares a son with her.
She didn't hold back on advice either: “My advice is walk out on people, turn your back on them even at their lowest… f**** em.” And “My heart then turned so cold you can’t even reach me.” Yet, romance lingered in her feed. She tweeted, “I’ll probably end up marrying a boxer,” followed by “Love a man that can fight” with heart-eyes emojis. 💔👀
Social media lit up under The Shade Room's comments. @minniexbby sympathized: “I hate this for yaya 😢 ... prayers for your healing journey 🙏🏾” @mirahmonae hoped, “she really loves the boy. i hope she finds her happy ever after.” Others urged moving on, with @sashasleigh suggesting “gervonta cough cough” and @september22ndd_ shading, “Imagine constantly being in your bag over a married man.”
Meanwhile, NBA YoungBoy fired off his own tweet: “Powder head b**** oh tell them what I found out during that time since you picking at me.” Speculation flew that it targeted Yaya, but she clapped back swiftly: “Wrong bm. He ain’t talking about me did you forget I’m on probation and have to do weekly drops boo.” She added, “Y’all hate me so much y’all wanted it to be true so bad sorry try again.”
Talk about messy ex vibes—will Yaya finally step into that boxing ring of love, or is this just round one? 🔥
