Floyd Mayweather is sued for a head-on collision which involved his three children. Justin Bieber was also apparently involved in the collision.

The incident happened in June 2014 when a car carrying Mayweather's children slammed into another in Los Angeles. The U.S. boxer was attending the BET Awards when the accident took place. Justin Bieber happened to be in the area where the accident took place. He reportedly rushed to the scene to take care of the boxer's children. TMZ reported that the other driver, Peter Park, whose car Mayweather's car had collided into claimed that he was seriously injured in the accident. Now, he is suing the champion boxer, as according to Park, Mayweather's driver drove like a "complete maniac" when the accident took place.

The report of the lawsuit also revealed that the one who was driving Mayweather's children on that day was another famous boxer called J'Leon Love. Love, who apparently trains at the Mayweather Boxing Gym in Las Vegas, is also sued. The lawsuit claims that Love was driving at a speed of more 100 MPH and weaved in and out of traffic. Park claimed that he had suffered injuries to his neck, collarbone, head, ankle and foot. He also claimed that his passengers had also been injured. The damages in Park's lawsuit are unspecified.

In an earlier report by TMZ, Bieber played the Good Samaritan and apparently "rescued" Mayweather's children from the accident scene. The boxer was reportedly on the phone with the Canadian singer when the accident took place. He reportedly told Bieber that he was feeling bad that he could not be with the children at that point as he had to attend the award ceremony. Bieber was not far away from the scene and reached the crash site soon in his SUV. He told police that he was a friend of Mayweather and would like to ensure the safety of the children. The children were not severely injured in the accident. One of them got a busted lip. Officers allowed Bieber to take the children away in his SUV. He apparently dropped the children home and came back to inform the officers that they were with their father.
