We (ya'll know thats just me right?) at the Loaded Gloves believe it is our duty to provide insight, translation and yes sometimes the regression of language. For smart, evolved, talented men like Curtis Jackson language is a saviour, for without it he would still be wasting his talent in crime. Now that "Fiddy" is in Boxing, he is subject to my language and my the interpretation of "his language" for the indulgence of Fight Fans. Since #2 P4P (yeah i said that shit) fighter Floyd Mayweathers release from jail the anticipated takeover of the sport by the two homies has hit a rough patch. Rumors of Fiddy watching over Ms. Jackson a little too closely wont be addressed here; who cares where a woman made of wax ends up anyway. What we care about is TMT Promotions and whether or not the strain between Mayweather and Jackson is the byproduct of some Boxing Business gone wrong. But first my favorite quote on the "art" of political language.
"Political language is meant to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and give the appearance of solidity to pure wind"
George Orwell
Who by the way predicted a lot of the shit we are going through back in the 1940's.
50 Cent's comment about Floyd Mayweather
"Everybody around him is waiting on the next time he feels generous, and i have alot-i dont wait for nobody".
Translation: I'm not one of your flunkies, you told me when you was locked up you wanted to get out from under Golden Boy so i made moves-now you wanna bullshit wasting my time while you kick it with clowns that wipe yo sweat.
"It puts us in an interesting space sometimes. I don't have to sit around waiting for the next time he feels likes giving somebody something"
Translation: Hey homie, you promised you would fight under the TMT Banner, you promised "WE" could get this Pacquiao money together but if you having second thoughts i ain't going nowhere bruh. I got my license so if you wanna play games and go with Golden Boy again we still cool, but I'm the man in the suit like Don King I'll be here longer than you.
My Take: Fiddy saw an "in" through Floyd, like DK saw one with Ali. He anticipated starting at the top with his first real PPV Card being the BIG ONE. All systems were go until Floyd got out of jail and realized that behind (and in front) of the scenes 50 was coming off as "the man" and he didn't like that. How do we know that TMT is the brainchild of both men? what if it were just a brainstorm that 50 Cent acted on while Mayweather was conveniently jailed?. What if Floyd chaffed at the idea that his buddy signed Gamboa and Celestino Caballero; two fighters that were working out in his gym. Was 50 Cent's attempt to sign Miguel Cotto a power move to assure the services of his friend?,but Cotto knew better. Cotto probably knew that all things go through Golden Boy and Top Rank and that Floyd's 2007 defeat of De La Hoya bound him to the Company, something he's too proud to share with his Mogul buddy. Partnerships in public are sometimes Employee/Employer relationships-Corporations often shine a spotlight on minority owners like Jay Z and Magic Johnson for the long term PR benefits. Is 50 Cent, a man who came into the Hip Hop game ruining careers and maintaining long term violent "Beefs" above using his "friend" to pull off a Boxing Political coupe?. Name one A list Rapper who dont rap about Monopoly and cornering the market, it's Business 101 for former drug dealers.You can be the judge, I'm only here to decode the obvious, that TMT Promotions may not be the "Labor of Love" it was portrayed to be.
