Five-time heavyweight boxing champ Floyd Mayweather Jr. is taking a swing at an ex-con major donor to former Mayor Bill de Blasio over an alleged $175 million fraud scheme involving jewels and a secret jet sale. The superstar pugilist claims in a new Manhattan Supreme Court lawsuit that Jona Rechnitz — an ex-mayoral donor who once tried to bribe NYPD cops with hookers — orchestrated “a multi-year fraudulent scheme” involving real estate, jewelry and his beloved Gulfstream Jet famously emblazoned with “MAYWEATHER” on the fuselage.
