50 Cent claims he had a helping hand in getting the Floyd Mayweather-Conor McGregor superfight to come to fruition.
The rapper, who's friends with Mayweather, was a guest on Thursday night's episode of "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" and told the host he helped convince the boxer to go through with it.
"I actually ran into Dana (White) when they were putting the fight together, and I told 'em, I said 'go after it, 'cause I spoke to Floyd and he feel better about it now,'" 50 Cent said.
When asked if he helped make the fight happen, 50 Cent replied, "Yeah" and joked that he's "going to get something" for his efforts.
