In a recent appearance on the Breakfast Club, 50 Cent said he had an opportunity to meet with Floyd Mayweather so they could sort out their issues.

The clip above was recorded at the same time as his Friday episode on the radio show, and saw Fif explain how he was able to finally settle his beef with the boxer. The two were friends for years and even worked together as part of their TMT boxing promotions firm, but somewhere down the line they had a public falling out and have  been directing barbs at each other for a full decade.

Fif said he saw Mo’Nique perform a comedy set in Las Vegas during the 2021 Super Bowl weekend, and she had an extended portion that joked about Fif and Floyd’s falling out. 

“He don’t need me, I don’t need him,” 50 said, noting the two never had an incentive to clear up their feud with neither side having something to gain, both being extraordinarily wealthy. “Me and him get into an argument and it can go on for a lot longer because we don’t really need each other.”

Despite their issues, 50 said that he still refers to Mayweather as “champ” and they both came to the realization that there was no value in leaving things unresolved. “Yo, why it take so long for you to pull up on me fam?” 50 recalled Floyd saying when they met to resolve the beef. “‘Crazy…why you say all that stuff about me? What you been doing?’” They’ve since apologized to each other, and a post on the rapper’s Instagram implies they’re even thinking about working together again.

“Yeah Champ said he gonna pull up on me for Tycoon so you know we gonna go crazy. Big bags coming out TMT,” Fif wrote in a post shared on Monday.

Looks like there might have been something to gain after all.
