Last month Floyd Mayweather denied assaulting his baby mama Josie Harris in an interview with Katie Couric insisting Josie was high on drugs and that all he did was restrain her [click here if you missed that].
Josie just filed a multi-million dollar lawsuit against Floyd for defamation…
According to TMZ Josie Harris is claiming she was embarrassed and humiliated on a global scale after Floyd's interview with Katie Couric aired just two weeks before Floyd's big fight.
Josie's lawyer, Dan Friedlander, writes in the lawsuit -- Floyd's lies to Couric "were knowingly fabricated in order to hype Mayweather's upcoming fight with Pacquiao, to avoid bad press by deflecting responsibility for beating the mother of his children."Josie is seeking more than $20 million in damages.
