In the lead up to Conor McGregor’s boxing fight against Floyd Mayweather, a rivalry between rapper 50 cent and the UFC’s Irish star brewed heavy.
It’s been months now though, since either side breathed a word about it, but yesterday Conor McGregor reignited the war of words with a lengthy Instagram post, that has now received a response from 50.
In McGregor’s statement, he complimented several people before taking a jab at 50 cent.
Making deals and TAKING deals!
Kings recognise Kings!
Congrats to @jayz on his number 1 takeover from @diddy in the highest paid Forbes list.
What a take-over!
Diddy hasn’t been number 2 in so long. Until now.
Zoom into that two tone with the powder blue on my wrist mate. You might see 1st place again.
I am also really interested to see this years Forbes highest paid athletes list.
I have now surpassed @cristiano Ronaldo as I told him I would in 2016.
Floyd as a retired fighter that makes ZERO substantial revenue outside of them ropes is not on the list, and in the long game, is already dead.
Mixed Martial Arts is a glorious game, Floyd. You are going to love it hahaha
Someone tag 50cent in this for me.
He blocked me on this the mad 50 year old instagram blocker.
Ahh don’t block me 50 kid, I still like some of your songs. The older ones hahah
King bless you all!
50 Cent would go on to post a racially charged video about Conor McGregor and white fighters in general. He would later delete the video, but not before we got ahold of it.
Nothing on the internet is ever truly deleted, and here’s the controversial video from 50 cent.
