Yesterday it was announced that 50 Cent had entered into a joint venture with former bff Floyd Mayweather's arch rival, Manny Pacquiao [click here if you missed that].
In an interview with Power 105, 50 Cent confirms the Paquiao deal and sheds light on the current status of his relationship with Floyd Mayweather...
50 tells The Breakfast Club,
"Yeah, well Floyd is a friend of mine…I look at Floyd like he’s my younger brother. ... He earns so much that he just spend. Run around and spend what he want. So, there’s no urgency, to anything. And when the communication breaks and it starts to not be –Look, my concept of TMT is ‘the fight you want to see’. It’s Floyd [Mayweather and] Manny Pacquiao, the fight.”

50 is a turn coat snake. But hey he admires GW Bush so I expect these types of business tactics.
Im lost.. Did that make any sense.. Imma need a breakdown of what he is saying.. Please
what is really going on with fiddy ? Does'nt he know that boxing is ran by Bob Arum and friends. Paquiao is broke and is old but he can cash out with the one big super fight with Floyd Mayweather. Fiddy is looking out for his own pocket book and nobody else's.
Getting back at your ex by aligning yourself with your ex's arch rival. Nice. Only a scorned like bitch like 50 pennies would do this.
^^^^^ 1:19 PM Co-signing the obvious.
Kinda sound like everyone is in on it, that's the way to get pac to agree to mayweather terms, and get 50 some money too! Its a stunt
I think this whole beef w/Floyd and 50 is a money thing. Before Floyd went in, there was rumours about Floyd owing 50 money. And with 50's little comment about Floyd spending so much, I'm thinking that is where the problem with those two begins. Money can fuck up blood relatives, so why would it stop with these two.
He plays these little back stabbing snitch hoe games with everyone he comes in contact with. I dont think I want to be filthy rich with not one person to call a friend.
He laid it out as plain as anyone should need. If you take it at face value you get the whole picture with out needed to add your two cents. IMHO
TMT = 50, paq, money.
50 - put's up the money to start TMT the production co.
Paq - plays his role as the fighter and 1/3 owner.
Money - same as paq
Now its EASY to say hey paq you get this much for the fight and this much as part owner of the promotion company that puts this on, same for Floyd. 50 gets his cut because he put up the money to start the company and gets his 1/3
Yeh basically the nigga is tryna orchestrate "the fight that will never happen" and keep all the money in house, meaning Oscar Delahoya's gay ass and his Golden Boy Productions won't get a cut. It'll be interesting to see how it goes down because Golden Boy got they hands in everything these days..
he sounds deeply disturbed by floyd's spending habits. a friend would be bothered by that, for sure, just thinking about the person's future. but a potential business partner would be even more disturbed by that, so i'm thinking maybe he was hopeful for floyd to be his business partner but has to face facts about floyd's bad habits. a good business man will make the tough call and go with the best deal. this is not about the friendship, it's a bout a business deal. they are probably still friends, just can't be business partners.
50 is out his lane on this one. Those Wej ppl a.k.a Jews, Bob Arum of Top Rank who still holds promotional rights to Manny and Rothsberg who runs pay per view boxing programing over at HBO ain't about to let no nigga take hold of what would potentially become the richest fight in boxing history. Not happening. They got that shit on lock. Wej ppl don't let negroes cut their cake.
@2:39 If black people thought that way --- accepting that Jews and other races had certain industries on lock so why bother breaking into them --- we'd be no where. However, you feel about 50 you have to admire his confidence. I for one hope he can make this work. It would be a fantastic model for others to follow. Athletes should see the "bigger" picture and understand the millions they make is chump change compared to the money they are earning the real players (owners, promoters, etc.) Sounds like Floyd is just complacent with being the typical athlete (earning millions)and 50 was trying to show him the big picture. He'll realize what 50 was trying to do when he's old, retired and broke. It's sad. How many times have we seen/heard that story... Tyson, Holyfield, etc. I admire 50's business sense and wish him luck. It's unfortunate it didn't work out with Floyd. We as blacks can't seem to work together because of stupid sh&t like egos but if it takes him pairing up with Manny, so be it. What he could potentially create is much bigger than Floyd. It could change the boxing game. Why should we be okay that whites are running things at the top of the food chain when most of the athletes making these business go are minorities. I wish him nothing but luck on this venture. I'm excited to see if he can make it happen.
@4:00PM well stated
Crab= endless pursuit of the "illusion" of progress. But is unawares of setbacks. Endless cycle until they are old and irrelevant. Then they oversell themselves to become relevant again
see: Mike tyson, Jessica simpson, Curtis " 50 Cent" Jackson
stop letting these ebonic talking fools manipulate you. Ignore 50 and his girl Floyd
wooowww, 50 you hella fuckin fake for this, on everything.
