With all the attention put toward the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge over the past week or so, there have been several variants brought on by different people, but none funnier than rapper 50 Cent’s idea for undefeated, pound-for-pound best boxer, Floyd Mayweather Jr.
In a series of Instagram posts, 50 Cent wakes up to a story on Mlive.com where Mayweather calls out 50, and rappers T.I. and Nelly.
Surprised he was mentioned in the story, 50 eventually creates his own ALS challenge for Mayweather and no bucket is needed in this one.
Dubbed, The Harry Potter Challenge, 50 says if Mayweather can read one entire page of a Harry Potter book, that he will donate $750,000 to charity. 50 is playing of Nelly’s comments made on ESPN’s First Take (h/t www.sportsgrid.com), stating, “It’s kind of hard talking to a guy who hasn’t graduated from high school.”
Then a few moments later, 50 poks further fun at Money, by putting a picture of Mayweather looking angry/confused, which he used to tie into his calling out to read a page from a Harry Potter book.
With how the former BFF’s have been going back and forth with each other in the press and social media since their falling out shortly after Mayweather was released from a Las Vegas jail in 2012, we haven’t heard the last of this tiff, and the ball is now in Mayweather’s court to respond.
