50 Cent reignites Floyd Mayweather rivalry over nemesis firing refereemid-fight

The exhibition match between Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather and John Gotti III was a major attraction last week. Surprisingly, it wasn’t Mayweather’s easy win over Gotti that caught everyone’s attention. A mid-fight incident drew everyone’s attention, including the well-known rapper Curtis ’50 Cent’ Jackson. The rapper didn’t miss the chance to make something out of it.

Considering his status as a superstar, Floyd Mayweather did something unexpected during the fight against Gotti. ‘Money May’ dismissed the referee in the second round of the fight just because he warned Mayweather about an illegal shot. Following this, former arch-nemesis 50 Cent couldn’t resist taking a sarcastic jab at the boxing legend.

This is how champ boxing matches look now, WWE vibes... He fired the referee during the fight. LOL.

The rapper has taken down the video for now. It’s worth noting that he’s not the only one who reacted to that viral moment. In fact, several prominent figures in the fighting community, including UFC commentator Joe Rogan, shared their thoughts on Mayweather’s behavior. Interestingly, Rogan’s reaction was quite different from that of 50 Cent.

50 Cent’s mocking of his former friend has left everyone puzzled. There are several speculations that the rapper might want to reignite their beef. Interestingly, before this recent incident, there was another occasion when 50 Cent got involved in Gervonta Davis and Floyd Mayweather’s feud. He even mocked Mayweather with a sarcastic comment.

Why is there a feud between 50 Cent and Floyd Mayweather?

Boxing legend Floyd Mayweather and US rapper 50 Cent were once inseparable at the heights of their fame. Both superstars always supported each other and even graced each other’s respective fields of work. Interestingly, the two friends seemingly never had any issue with one another. However, that changed in 2012, when ‘Money May’ was sent to prison and made to serve a three-month sentence.

According to multiple reports, while Floyd Mayweather was away, the rapper was put in charge of Mayweather’s promotional company, ‘The Money Team.’ When Mayweather returned, 50 Cent requested a substantial $2 million for his three months of work. However, Mayweather immediately refused to give that amount, which ultimately led to the end of their friendship.

In an interesting turn of events, after years of harboring grudges against each other, 50 Cent and Mayweather hinted at the possible end of their feud in 2022. This became evident when the two were spotted sitting together, enjoying a basketball game. Despite this public display, recent actions and statements from the rapper suggest that the feud may not be resolved after all.
