I am no fan of 50 Cent, but if TMT can appeal to younger people...

[edgarg]

well he is bringing his own fans, compared to other Promoters who Promotion never really took off because while they had the money...NOBODY KNEW WHO THE HELL THEY WAS!

Other then Oscar who started promoting fights already having his own fans base, with 50 Cent he is bringing a even bigger fans Base with him then Oscar

also lets be honest...nobody has market boxing to the URBAN MARKET since Don King had Tyson and we seen the type of Draw Mike Tyson was...50 Cent can reach those Markets...because Oscar, Bob Arum, Gary Shaw, DiBella, those guys are not going to go into those Urban Markets or Inner Cities to Sale Fights, if they do nobody is really going to listen to them because they can't relate to those Promoters...50 Cent can and likely will and people will be interested in what he is selling

This is good for the FIGHTERS IN GENERAL, not just the fighters that sign with TMT Promotions, it has people who never talk about boxing, now talking about boxing since it was announced that 50 Cent is NOW a Promoter

I think that there's a biiiiig difference between the reputations of Oscar and the (c)rapper.
Oscar's fan base was the boxing public, whilst what-ever-his-name's fan base is a sort of, sort of pop music base the vast majority of whom are likely to be only interested in whatever they're interested in, which is mostly and probably not boxing. Maybe they'll start a thug fan base.

Ouch

[Light_Speed]

so not supporting a ghetto trashy rapper ruining our sport even more = not being a boxning fan.

50 is a whack rapper but what's wrong with being from the ghetto? You know that a lot of fighters grew up in the ghetto right?

He was a success in 2006.

No one gives a **** about 50 Cent now. He knows that, this is why he's getting into boxing promotion cause he's BFF with Floyd.

Floyd is a major draw in boxing so 50 as a business man will take advantage of this connection.

Smart move by him.

I believe this "TMT" will be a success for him.

[-jose-]

he'll go as far as Floyd did when he thought he was a rapper...

Honestly, I don't like the way Broner acts. I think he's trying too hard to be Mayweather. But he brings in high ratings. He's getting money, so I can't hate on the guy.

And the fact that you're not going to support a promotion company because the promoter is 50 cent is wack. Who cares? All I care about is if they can provide good fights.

If you want to support a promotional company by how the promoter acts then I'm guessing you don't watch Golden Boy PPV or Top Rank PPV seeing how Oscar and Bob acts.
