50 Cent Clowns Floyd Mayweather While Promoting New Novel
- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
50 Cent has continued to mock former friend-turned-foe, Floyd Mayweather Jr., this time by poking fun at the boxing legend’s alleged illiteracy.
Over the weekend, Fif took to Instagram to promote his new book, The Accomplice. Within the post, he joked of creating an accompanying audiobook in order to allow Mayweather Jr. the ability to experience the story himself.
“I have no beef with anyone,” the 48-year-old wrote, before seemingly taking a jab at the undefeated pugilist. “I even made sure the audiobook comes out at the same time so champ won’t feel left out,” he added, before indicating that a feature film adaption of The Accomplice is also in the works.
This is not the first time 50 Cent has made fun of Mayweather Jr.’s seemingly poor reading skills. In 2014, the G-Unit leader offered to donate $750,000 to charity if Mayweather Jr. were to read one page of the popular Harry Potter book series.
“This is a special A-S-L…E-L-S challenge for you, Floyd,” Fif said at the time. “If you can read one page out of a Harry Potter book, ni**a, I’ll donate $750,000 to whatever charitable organization you want to…f**k the bucket of ice, man!”
The rapper’s feud with Mayweather Jr. was recently revived following comments Mayweather Jr. made while addressing Sean “Diddy” Combs’ looming legal issues, as he criticized those who have been outspoken regarding the multiple allegations against the rap mogul.
“I’m not gonna speak bad about P. Diddy,” Mayweather said during an interview in February. “‘Cause he still a Black man. Mistakes happen. And I can’t say if it is or not a mistake, but things happen in life. And P. Diddy’s business is P. Diddy’s business. It’s not my job or anybody else’s job to go on the internet and stomp him and kick a man while he’s down.”
The champ continued, adding “My take on it is: it’s not my business. I don’t think it’s right at all and I don’t condone it. Even if that happened to my daughter, I would be hurt but that’s a choice that my daughter made.”
After catching wind of Mayweather Jr.’s comments, 50 would repost a clip of the interview on his social media, questioning the fighter’s intelligence for addressing such a sensitive topic.
“They didn’t even ask him about this, Champ is you stupid or is you dumb?” he wrote. “Get me the f**k out ya head, you sound like a hater. DIDDY DO IT ? COMING soon.”
