50 Cent Leaves Music Behind to Enter World of Boxing50 Cent and Floyd Mayweather Jr. seem to now have a lot more in common than just being BFF’s. That’s because the G-Unit Records founder is taking a stab at the business of his boxing great friend, suiting up as a boxing promoter.
50 has launched TMT Promotions, short for The Money Team Promotions. It’s a company licensed to promote boxing matches in New York, and is in the process of being licensed in Nevada.
Former featherweight title holder Yuri Gamboa, and super middleweight contender Andre Dirrell, are said to be some of the first fighters to sign to TMT Promotions.
Here’s what’s being reported by the NY Post:
“Mayweather hinted in April that Curtis would be getting involved in the fight game, during a conference call to promote his fight against Miguel Cotto.
I think he’s going to be involved on the promotion side. We may even put him out there, let him fight on pay-per-view one time. So we don’t really know what the future holds, but Fiddy is getting involved with boxing.”
Is 50 Cent trying to be the next Don King? Of course he is. Don’t believe me.. Ask Leonard Ellerbe.
