According to sundayworld its in the works:
US rapper Jay Z looks set to hand Thomas ''Tommy Gun" Oosthuizen the biggest pay cheque of his career should the South African boxer take advantage of the offer before him.
The wealthy star from Brooklyn has become a boxing promoter and is planning a face-off expected to take place in the US in May or June between Oosthuizen and his boxer, WBA super middleweight champion Andre Ward.
The rapper's Roc Nations Sports enquired about Oosthuizen's availability from his promoter Rodney Berman this week.
''Thomas could earn a record R3-million for that fight. I know I can push for him to earn that amount," said Berman.
But Oosthuizen has one hurdle to negotiate if he is to mingle with Jay Z in May.
He has to beat compatriot Ryno ''The Lion" Liebenberg in a fight for the vacant IBO light heavyweight belt at Emperors Palace on Saturday night.
