    Look at the history, Filthy Rich Records, yup that did very well didnt it, Mayweather Promotions, for years people thought it was a legit promoters outfit only to find out it was just a logo they posted for every Floyd fight to make him look like a balla..

    This like the two before will end up being a joke

    I don't understand why Fiddy would hate on Oscar or GBP. This is a stupid move.

    Not really, 50 just fired back at Oscar Del la Hoya, Oscar now has apologised so nothing else to see here.

    Music and Boxing are both entertainment industries. Look at how good Al Haymon has done crossing over into boxing from the music industry. The guy pretty much gets done whatever he wants.

    I'm not sure what all the twitter battle is about, but my guess is its there for a reason. It gets people talking quickly, a publicity stunt if you will. I wouldn't read too much into it.

    Mayweather Promotions was just used to allow floyd a number of tax right offs. Many people do this it's nothing new.

    Mayweather never wanted a license under mayweather promotions but now he has joined up with 50 to create TMT promotions THE MONEY TEAM, where 50 has acquired a license.

    50 cent, Al Haymon (who is well known in the music industry) and Floyd Mayweather plus good relationships with Golden Boy Richard Schaffer could be one hell of a force in the future.

    If I was 50 and Floyd I would set up TMT boxing gyms around urban areas of america and find the next floyd mayweather or Mike Tyson.
