50 Cent Could Sign Yuriorkis Gamboa and Andre Dirrell to New Promotional Company Jul 22nd 2012, 09:03 Floyd Mayweather's best friend and multi-platinum selling hip-hop recording artist 50 Cent has started his own boxing promotional banner named TMT (The Money Team) Promotions. Chris Mannix of Sports Illustrated reports that TMT Promotions has been licensed by the state of New York and is working on getting its Nevada license as well. Two fighters rumored to sign with 50 Cent are former featherweight world champ Yuriorkis Gamboa (21-0, 16 KO) and super middleweight contender Andre Dirrell (20-1, 14 KO). It was originally speculated that Gamboa would sign with Mayweather Promotions after he left his previous promoter Top Rank. Dirrell left his former promoter Gary Shaw and manager Al Haymon and was spotted at the Mayweather boxing gym along with Gamboa. If this latest news comes to fruition, perhaps Mayweather will join forces with his friend 50 Cent rather than continue to run his own promotional outfit.
