On Thursday, a judge denied Suge Knight’s request to
reduce his bail from $10 million to $5 million after he pleaded not guilty to
all counts in his murder and attempted murder cases.
The $10 million is just a drop in the bucket for boxer Floyd Mayweather, who is said to be ponying up the dough to get Suge out of jail.

However,
TMZ claims that Mayweather’s camp did not offer the former Death Row CEO bail
money, and the former friends have been out of contact for years. After
Thursday’s hearing, where a July 7th trial date was set, Knight’s attorney told
the NY Daily News that Mayweather plans on bailing his client out after his
fight against Manny Pacquiao Saturday night.
“My understanding is that Suge is going to be bailed out this coming week,” lawyer Matthew
Fletcher told the Daily News. “We think Mr. Mayweather is going to win the
championship and then come champion the day again,” he said. “They’re good
friends, and there’s no reason he shouldn’t. And we believe that will happen.”
