50 Cent agrees to fight Floyd Mayweather for $5 million

If you weren’t aware, undefeated champ Floyd “Money” Mayweather and his BFF Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson had a public beef recently, that 50 claims was a publicity stunt (of course it was).
Well apparently, someone is willing to pony up $5 million to each Mayweather and 50 to get them to square off in the ring, according to Hip Hop Wired:
Billionaire entrepreneur Alki David and Celebrity Boxing promoter Damon Feldman are breaking off undefeated boxing superstar and Money Team leader and former buddy $5,000,000 each to settle their differences in the ring.
“I’ll fight him, Dec 14th is [too] soon. I would need time to get in shape. I’m 204 right now I hit that boy he will see a white light,” 50 tweeted.
Mayweather has yet to respond to the offer, but it appears that 50 is all for it. The power of the dollar is strong, so it would not be surprising to see Mayweather opt in to the fight as well.
The real question is this: would you buy a PPV fight featuring a 43-0 pound-for-pound champ and a multi-platinum rapper who has no professional boxing experience? Yeah, me either.
