Johannesburg, Dec 24 (ANI): Former South African president Nelson Mandela's daughter Zindzi, has reportedly been ordered to pay Los Angeles boxing adviser Duane Moody about 62.1 million Rand (7.5 million dollars) for breaching a boxing contract.
According to The Star, a US judge ruled that Zindsi must pay Moody for breaching a contract that was to see boxing champions Floyd Mayweather jnr and Manny Pacquiao fight in South Africa as part of Nelson Mandela's 93rd birthday celebrations.
The court papers said the event was supposed to be held at the Orlando Stadium in Soweto in November, but negotiations with Mayweather fell through when Zindzi did not come up with the money to finance the event.
Moody sued Zindzi for breach of oral contract, promise without the intent to perform and negligent misrepresentation, News24 reports.
"We do not want to say anything further as this might affect our ability to recover the money," said Moody's lawyer Jamie Keeton.
Zindzi's US representative Michael Lodge said Zindzi was aware of the judgment and that she believed Mohlaleng Media would cover the legal costs as she was a consultant with the company. (ANI)
