50 Cent's friendship with Floyd Mayweather goes back more than a decade. Things started going downhill in 2012 after their joint promotions company The Money Team tore them apart - Mayweather backed out of it and left Fiddy with a $2 million loss. They had appeared to have patched things up until last summer when 50 bullied Mayweather on Instagram by challenging him to read a page from Harry Potter without messing it up. Mayweather fired back, calling the rapper irrelevant. After a few more back-and-forth comments, Fiddy ultimately reached out to Mayweather after one of the boxer's friends passed away in a murder-suicide, and it now appears they have patched things up for good ahead of Mayweather's May 2 fight against Manny Pacquiao.
According to TMZ, the feud is finally over after the two men came together last night for a public appearance and a photo. Fiddy posted the picture to Instagram with the caption, "THE original MONEY TEAM, you gotta love it. My brother ready,may 2 don't get scared now."
Billed as "The Fight of the Century" eight-division world champion Pacquiao and undefeated five-division world champion Mayweather will face each other in the ring. It is expected to be the highest-grossing fight in the history of the sport and will be televised on PPV.
Justin Bieber previously revealed that he will be walking his friend Mayweather into the ring the night of the fight.
Glad to see the Fiddy and Mayweather have squashed the beef.
