50 cent and Oscar De La Hoya’s Slight Twitter Beef
50 Cent recently received a promoters license from the New York State Athletic Commission for his company TMT Promotions. The acronym stands for “The Money Team,” which is what Mayweather, the highest-paid athlete in the world last year ($85 million), according to Forbes magazine, calls his crew. 50 Cent is also in the application process to receive a promoters license in Nevada, according to Keith Kizer, executive director of the Nevada State Athletic Commission.
On Wednesday night, 50 Cent and Golden Boy president Oscar De La Hoya — whom Mayweather defeated in his first fight with Golden Boy in their record-shattering pay-per-view fight — mixed it up on Twitter, with 50 Cent including in their exchange, “I don’t gamble, Floyd do, but I bet you [that] you won’t be promoting Floyd Mayweather no more. TMT PROMOTIONS.”More info.
