Both 50 Cent and the renowned boxer have traded shots at one another on social media and in interviews for years. Things reached a new level in February when 50 remarked that he’d be open to a fight with Mayweather if the weight class is favorable.
“I’d fight Floyd if I could get down there.Or he could just let me not have to get down to 150. I could make about 180. He walking around 150, maybe 147,” he said at the time.
Mayweather even said afterward that he’d be interested in the match regardless of weight.
He said on social media: “I also heard that 50 Cent would fight me but claims I’m too small. If he wants to lace up at the end of the year we can do an exhibition then. I don’t care about weight class with any of these guys. The Paul brothers will make great money with the events, but with 50 cent It has to be Winner Takes All.’”
Tycoon Weekend is scheduled for August 25 at the Toyota Center in Houston. Performers include B-Simone, Karlous Miller, Michael Blackson, Bill Bellamy, DC Young Fly, Gary Owen, Lil Duval, D’Lai, and more.
