Will 50 Cent Become Boxing's Next Major Promoter To Rival Top Rank & Golden Boy?

[FlatLine]

He has the money, he's signing good fighters and now he's got the gym. 50 cent is making major moves in the world of boxing. With his fame, contacts and cash flow, could he break out of the constraints of a smaller promoter and eventually become one of the main players in boxing promotion?

Is 50 Cent's SMS the next Top Rank and Goldenboy?

[Larry the boss]

Anything is possible

[Priest Andretti]

I can't see it. He already burned a lot of bridges. Wish him the best though especially Gamboa and Direll.

I hope so, not many gamble on a boxing promotion. Fitty seems to be taking it very serious, his new gym looks decent. Lets all hope he succeeds.

[New England]

he hasn't even put on a single fight.

i'm actually pretty convinced that this is a publicity move.

[Ringlife]

I think he will reach the same level as a Gary Shaw or Lou Dibella, Dan Gossen.

I think he could quite quickly become a player at the table and with his reach and "fans" and his knowledge of social media due to his age, he has all the tools and resources to become a player if he's serious. I have a feeling he's serious and in the next 2 years we will find out just how serious he is

not before al haymon and GBP embarrasses a bit.

No but here's the thing. The reason people like Golden boy is because Oscar is young, goodlooking, sharp dressing, hip promoter who wants to have his best fight eachother! He is a new era of promoters who is passionate about giving us good fights. Arum is from an older generation where they want to milk it for money and put on bum fights. Todd, is arum's step son, and like Oscar, he is young hip, sharp dressing, good looking guy who will also want to do things like Oscar! Arum lets petty stuff get in the way of fights. Oscar, doesnt care as much for petty stuff. Todd will be the same way as Oscar, and he will want to work with Golden Boy.

After Arum dies, 50 cent can work with Todd, and Top Rank can be a more perfected competitor for golden boy, or all of them will work together! 50 has to kiss Arum's azz, that way by the time he dies, he can be in tight with Todd!

Thats the best way for 50 to handle things! Other than that, he wont get tv dates alone.

I highly doubt it.
