50 Cent admits to twitter feud being all hype


We all know 50 Cent is a master at manipulating people into keeping him relevant. Seems that Mayweather may have taken a note or two. Hip Hop Wired reports:

This past weekend, 50 Cent and Floyd Mayweather Jr. had Twitter on fire. The former buddies were both going back and forth, hitting each other with disses and it had looked like the "Money Team" were all finished. However, 50 Cent revealed on his Twitter account that it was all for play-play. 

"I'm sick of all this nonsense Floyd asked me to act like were fighting cause no one was paying any attention after his 60 days," 50 tweeted earlier this morning. The publicity stunt was well speculated for a while, especially after 50 Cent started doing business with Mayweather's adversary, Manny Pacquiao.

"I know some the thing we do in hip hop for shock value are wrong. He just wanted some attention Floyd is like a brother to me," he added. "He just called he mad I said something about domestic violence. He just want be in music. You ever hear him RAP? Domestic violence is very serious my apologies,my grandmother said we need to stop playing I'm done sorry."

But, we'll see how this plays out because a billionaire is offering up a few million to see the two duke it out. Allhiphop reports:

While it still remains to be seen if rapper 50 Cent and Floyd Mayweather Jr. are friends or not, a group of investors that includes a billionaire, are offering the pair $5 million to settle their differences.
Billionaire Alki David and partner Damon Feldman of Celebrity Boxing offerings the pair $5 million for a three-round celebrity boxing match.

50 Cent and Floyd Mayweather Jr. have been embroiled in a war of words and tweets over the past month, after a falling out, apparently over business.

The issue appears to be over a proposed boxing venture the pair were supposed to do together called The Money Team Promotions.

But shortly after Floyd Mayweather Jr. was released from prison in August, 50 claimed prison had “changed” Mayweather.

He then announced he was creating a new promotion company with Floyd’s rival, Manny Pacquaio, which was confirmed by Pacquaio’s business manager Michael Koncz.

More recently, on November 1, 50 Cent announced he was done with The Money Team Promotions.

Their war of words escalated over the weekend, when the pair traded shots via Twitter.

According to David, the show would air on FilmOn.com and BattleCam.com, two ventures that David owns or is an investor in.

To make things safe, Floyd Mayweather Jr. and 50 Cent would fight three 2-minute rounds in head-gear, along with big celebrity boxing gloves.

The proposed fight will happen in Las Vegas, Nevada on December 14, if either of the two men accept the offer.

Both 50 Cent in Floyd Mayweather Jr. have been silent on their Twitter accounts over the past several days.
