Kansas City Asks For $15,000 Refund For Boxer Mayweather's No-Show

Kansas City is asking a group to refund $15,000 for failing to bring Floyd Mayweather to the city on Dec. 8 to speak to young adults, KSHB reports.
A Tuesday letter sent to The Peers Organized to Support Student Excellence Program and signed by Kansas City Manager Troy Schulte demanded the $15,000 be returned in full, or the city would "avail itself of remedies allowed under the law."
The move to bring the famous boxer to the metro already faced initial opposition, with critics speaking out against the city using taxpayer money to pay for someone with a domestic violence background to speak to young adults about being healthy and drug free.
