After 50 Cent challenged Floyd Mayweather to read a page from a Harry Potter book for a $750,000 donation to a charity of the boxer’s choice, Mayweather responded in an off-the-cuff interaction with a fan filmed as a part of Showtime’s All Access pre-fight documentary series.
While in Las Vegas leading up to his rematch against Marcos Maidana, Mayweather was asked about 50 Cent’s challenge as he walked through a casino.
“Hey, I heard 50 Cent challenged you for 750 thousand,” a fan says in the video. “That’s all he challenged me?” Mayweather responds. “He gotta raise the stakes. Let him know. Do he still make music? I ain’t heard him in a while.”
In a separate response posted to Twitter in August, the boxer showed off an image of two checks worth more than $70 million.
