Wow, I'm surprised at the amount of hate shown towards "50 Cent" & Mayweather (not as much, Mayweather as many of you have blatantly stated how much you dislike him).
If you dislike the music 50 Cent makes that's one thing, but you cannot doubt his business acument nor Mayweather's. Both men have good minds for business (50 Cent more proven) & considering Mayweather knows more about boxing than just about anyone considering his pedigree. I personally believe that they could make this work & have something to rival Golden Boy & Top Rank. Think of it like this, Golden Boy (2001) is a relative new start considering how long Top Rank has been around (1973) & is basically neck & neck to Top Rank. I honestly believe when boxers want to try something different they will migrate over to TMT, the 3 fighters they have aren't bums & could be big as they progress further.
-Yuriorkis Gamboa, on his way & could be a next $ fighter with a step up in comp
-Andre Dirrell, decent fighter I remember in the Super Six but I don't see him being a big $ fighter...just a good fighter
& to be honest I've not seen the 3rd fighter.
Last but not least you've to assume Mayweather will fight 2-3x before he truly retires & there is not going to be a Mayweather fight that does not sell, so this will generate the $ needed to be the shot of adrenaline for the company.
