Floyd Mayweather vs Curtis Jackson (50 Cent)

[Saint-loup]

We're all hoping that a Mike Tyson vs Floyd Mayweather matchup happens at some point.  Would love to see another 30 second 1st round KO from the champ before he disappears from the boxing scene again.

I never thought it will happen, but if it will, I still doubt if Mike Tyson could KO Mayweather.
Mayweather knows the reputation of Mike Tyson and he will always use his classic strategy which is the hit and run, and the right will be boring.

Yes I agree with you. Mayweather has NEVER been defeated by anyone, never, so I don't think this old Tyson could KO him in only few rounds.

[johhnyUA]

A winner take all might also be a first for the sport?

Sorry, but this will be more like the fight with McGregor: everyone will get it's hype and money.

Despite Mayweather is really high skilled champion, the last fight he has really strong opponent it was his fight with Pacquiao in 2015. Fight with Conor was not the boxing itself, it was obvious who will win in long term after few rounds. And it was obvious that Conor will not hit Floyd with knock out (to high level of the opponent for such things). And now Floyd want more to monetize  his name than to fight worthy opponents (but I'm not sure there still such people in his weight. Whatever)

Of course i will watch this, but it's looks like comedy rather than glorious match.

No comment to Curtis Jackson but what I can say to him is that he's been fooled by Mayweather. How much we will receive after this scripted fight?

This obviously talks about money, the winner takes all. This will boost someone to make a fight even he knows that there is no chance to win. That even legendary and known boxers losses against Mayweather how much more for a rapper?

Just like the other said, this will be more on comedy. Have 50 cents on this.

Does Curtis Jackson even have a boxing experience?

I'm just wondering as I only saw him in action movies, but this should not be automatic as the same in real life, right? Let's say he has knows boxing and has an a little experience, I would still say that even in a scripted fight he would not win.

First of all, it is not a fact that Curtis will agree to the fight and even if he has the slightest boxing skills, I am not at all sure that he has the slightest chance in a fight under the rules of boxing with Mayweather. Still, I think, although the headlines of such news sound bright for the layman, but still I personally think that it would be much more honest for the viewer if such fights are held either purely between professionals or purely between amateurs.

What do you mean by "the rules of boxing"?

We all know that Mayweather is a professional boxer and I agree that Curtis Jackson has no chance of winning against him. But I disagree that you are saying that he has no experience in terms of boxing because he is a boxer himself in the past. I know that it is in the past but I don't see any problem with that but in the end, we all know who'll win in this match.

The rules of boxing are going to be bend here, it will be just an exhibition match so definitely as Floyd is the pure boxing here, will have all the advantage. I'm not sure if 50 Cent though has agree to the match or not. 50 Cent is not a boxer, they say that he is an amateur boxer and even win a Golden Gloves but it is debatable. I can't find any records of him boxing as an amateur.

[MCobian]

Floyd Mayweather Jr. is really busy this year, because it is planned to fight with three people in an exhibition match. His opponents include Logan
Paul, Jake Paul and 50 Cent. He last boxed Mayweather in 2017 against Conor McGregor and managed to win convincingly. In fact, of the three
people Mayweather would face the most interesting of course, facing 50 Cent, because between Mayweather and 50 Cent there are personal problems.
So the fight will be more exciting, in fact, Mayweather mentions that a fight with the Paul brothers would make a lot of money. But against 50 Cent is
a battle to be won. But according to rumors the Mayweather vs 50 Cent fight is scheduled for later this year. Even though I can't wait for the two to meet
in the boxing ring.

Mayweather isnt really tired on making these exhibition fights? Fighting with a Rapper? What in the world is happening?  

50 cent had some history of boxing in the past as an amateur when he's still a teenager. Seriously?

This would be personal for Floyd. 50 Cent has been attacking him for being illiterate for a long time now. There’s plenty of YouTube videos out there showing the back and forth between the two over the years. A winner take all might also be a first for the sport?

this is just sad. he can't take the insults so he wants to fight 50 cent on a sport where he excell? the fight wouldn't prove anything other than Mayweather winning the fight, beating the shit out of 50 cent and taking all the money if the rules winner takes all.

[alegotardo]

Given the history between these two I sure hope this happens. If 50 could go in at his normal weight and this does end up being a winner take all match, I have to say it will be my most anticipated fight since Mike Tyson’s retirement.

81kg should be nothing for those who have 68kg.
This exhibition, if it really takes place, should be tragic, unless it does not pass a staging for the purpose of winning the spotlights.

Although, on closer examination, both have been in trouble since 2012 when they became partners in a company, correct me if I'm wrong. So, it could be that this is the chance to solve the problem once and for all.

We may not agree with it but Mayweather based on what we saw in his interest, he likes to fight celebrities to gain more attention, he called himself undefeated and the best but he is the one leading to destroy the reputation of boxing.

Teofimo Lopez is right, i like this guy, he is so passionate about boxing and vocal as well.
 
Teofimo Lopez Says Mayweather Ruining His Legacy By Doing Exhibitions

[hulla]

Mayweather wishing 50cent could accept to fight him in an exhibition fight is a stupid thing to do when Pacman promoter offers him the chance to give us an anticipated rematch but I think Mayweather wanted to fight 50cent because he sees him as an underdog and the last time I checked 50cent is a street fighter, once a drug dealer before moving yo music.
I hope Mayweather would able to handle his punches cause the man is a beast and he doesn't play when it comes to fighting that's why he said Mayweather is small for him.

Too exaggerated for you to described him that way when it comes to experience which do ends up on a having that punching power.Not to frustrate you but nothing
beats out someone on the ring that had been constantly making some training for decades which is totally different when you are just a streetfighter or a drug dealer.
Try to compare it technically or even with just common sense you can eventually spot out which one does have the advantage.
Mayweather will be accepting on fight that would turn out to be simple for him.

Teofimo Lopez Says Mayweather Ruining His Legacy By Doing Exhibitions

What legacy? he doesn't care about his legacy anymore when he started this exhibitions fight with a over match Japanese fighter. It's all for the money for him, that's it. That's how fans are going to remember him but he doesn't care. For him skills pay the bills.

This was 2015 interview of him before the Pacquaio fight.

He wouldnt really care about legacy thing and i do agree with those sentiments above but well its his own body and mind to decide and its none of our business if he had taken that path.
Money comes first and thats why he do really had that kind of nickname due into that kind of behavior.Its shameful? in the sense your a boxer that do fight for your pride and glory
but not all boxers would have that kind of mindset. This is a sport that can really be make as a business on via doing these exhibition fights.Win-win situation where you cant
affect your stats in case you do lost and also you can potentially earn big money with this.

There is just no honor for Floyd, you really can't find any wisdom from this guy but the money in mind all the time. If this guy lost his money, I don't think you can ever find someone who will act as if he is a friend to this guy.

They use to be friends, I see 50cents back when they walk going to the ring to fight someone. The covid19 had really made the worse of people that the two lost their minds.

[goinmerry]

Given the history between these two I sure hope this happens.

I don't understand the desire to see that kind of match.

Fighting against the same class, Mayweather always has an advantage. That's an exhibition match and attempting a money making scheme.

Hopefully, that fight will end up the same as what happens to the supposedly fight with Logan Paul. Not worth watching.

What do you expect in a fight between a true boxer and a rap who pretends to know boxing, this is going to be one-sided, I don't think 50 Cent can keep up with Mayweather and I have a strong belief that this is the fight is going to be staged, they are once a friend and I don't think they want to seriously hurt one another especially Mayweather on 50 Cent.

[LogitechMouse]

Mayweather isnt really tired on making these exhibition fights? Fighting with a Rapper? What in the world is happening?  

With this fights, they are destroying the true meaning of boxing TBH.
Exhibition fights? Why just fight another boxer instead of fighting a celebrity. Ohhhh wait for the sake of money. So they can destroy boxing for the sake of money. This isn't the true meaning of boxing.

There had been many exhibition fights like this but I didn't try to watch one because it isn't entertaining. It is more entertaining to see 2 real fighters fight in the real ring compare to these kind of fights.

I just hope this just stops.

Celebrities are just asking who they wanted to fight not defending any titles or their honor in the boxing ring. If you have a beef or just wanting to earn money nowadays, the boxing ring is open to be at your service. I respect the sport, I respect boxing, I respect hugely the boxers but I just hope other people respect this the same. These days, it is just a fight that gives you money after your match.
