Diamond jewellery stolen from boxer

Retired boxer Floyd Mayweather has had items of diamond jewellery stolen in a burglary, it has been reported.

Jewellery, thought to include items such as a diamond necklaces and diamond pendants, worth around $7.2 million (£4 million) was taken.

The former welterweight fighter has offered a $100,000 reward for the return of the items.

A ruby and diamond encrusted boxing glove pendant is reported to be among the pieces of jewellery taken in the theft, which happened between August 17th and 18th, while Mr Mayweather was away.

The items of jewellery were the only possessions taken during the burglary.

Meanwhile, a gang stole £20,000 worth of jewels, such as gold diamond rings, earlier this week, according to the Evening Times.

Around 50 diamond wedding rings were taken after the gang were believed to have to have let the air out of a jeweller's car tyre, before then stealing the items after offering to help fix the problem.
