The always entertaining Webbie was out in Los Angeles looking for a $1 million payday from 50 Cent. Contrary to popular assumption, there weren’t any royalties or industry paperwork involved, however.
The Savage Life rapper is alleging that he engaged in a word-of-mouth boxing bet that he won after 50’s fighter Yuriorkis Gamboa caught four fades that resulted to the first loss of his career in a June 29 bout against Terence Crawford.
Via TMZ:
Rapper Webbie is publicly shaming 50 Cent for failing to pay up after losing a million-dollar bet on a big time boxing match last weekend … and now he wants his cash money!
Webbie was in L.A. this week jawing about the wager he made with Fiddy right before the lightweight title bout between Terence Crawford and Yuriorkis Gamboa … who 50 Cent happens to manage.
Webbie says he walked his homie Crawford into the ring where he greeted 50 Cent and immediately threw down a challenge: “I say 50, what’s happening? I say I got a mil on my dawg!”
Cut to the 9th round when Crawford knocked out Gamboa, and BOOM … $1 MILLION payday for Webbie … or so he thought. In the clip, it sounds like the Louisiana rapper thinks he’s getting stiffed.
Then again, maybe 50 didn’t understand what was on the line — Webbie’s got a seriously Southern accent.
We spoke to several people at 50’s sports management co. … SMS Promotions — and they say this is the first anyone’s hearing about the alleged bet.
