50 Cent wasted no time taking another shot at longtime rival Floyd Mayweather Jr. after the boxer’s planned comeback exhibition fight in Greece was canceled following a legal dispute.
Mayweather was scheduled to return to the ring in Athens for a highly anticipated exhibition bout against Greek kickboxing star Mike Zambidis, but the event was stopped after a promoter filed a lawsuit accusing Mayweather of failing to fulfill business obligations.
The cancellation happened just hours before the scheduled fight, turning what was supposed to be a major comeback appearance into another controversy surrounding the boxing legend.
50 Cent quickly reacted to the news with a sarcastic social media post aimed at Mayweather, continuing their long-running public feud.
“Champ I saw I keep missing your call, the time is different I’m in Ibiza,” 50 joked, mocking the situation and referencing Mayweather’s latest setback.
The legal trouble reportedly began when CSI Entertainment filed a lawsuit claiming it paid Mayweather approximately $4.65 million in advance for exclusive rights connected to potential exhibition fights involving boxing icons Mike Tyson and Manny Pacquiao.
According to the lawsuit, the company alleged that Mayweather failed to deliver on the agreement and later moved forward with another fight arrangement without resolving the dispute.
The promoters requested that the court intervene and block the Greece exhibition fight, leading to a legal battle that ultimately disrupted the event.
Mayweather’s attorney, Melissa Glass, reportedly informed the court that the legal action had created major problems for the event, affecting promotion, distribution plans, and ticket sales.
With the situation escalating, the fight was unable to continue as originally planned.
Event organizers later released a statement suggesting the matchup could potentially return in the future, saying that some battles are worth waiting for in order to get the story right. However, no official rescheduled date has been announced.
The cancellation adds another headline to Mayweather’s recent string of legal and financial challenges. The undefeated boxing champion has faced multiple disputes in recent years, including lawsuits and other financial matters.
For 50 Cent, the situation became another opportunity to revisit one of hip-hop and sports entertainment’s most famous celebrity feuds. The two have traded insults publicly for years, often using social media to criticize each other.
As Mayweather attempts to navigate his latest legal issue, fans are now waiting to see whether his exhibition plans can be revived — or whether this latest setback will become another chapter in the ongoing controversies surrounding the boxing superstar.
