Soulja Boy revealed on Instagram this week that boxer Floyd Mayweather is training him for the fight, and 50 Cent followed that up with a post confirmingย that Mike Tyson will be training Brown, where Tyson can be heard on the phone saying, โ€œYeah, Souljah Boy is gonna get fโ€”ked up.โ€

Soulja Boy put up a video promoting the fight on IG on Thursday with Mayweather and on Sunday posted a cartoon of himself in a boxing ring with Brown knocked out.

Brown also confirmed the bout on Instagram and posted this (somewhat self-deprecating) video about it Sunday morning.

All of this alleged beef started over a woman, and some of the back and forth got ugly.ย Soulja Boy supposedly liked and commented on an Instagram picture posted by Brownโ€™s ex-girlfriend Karrueche Tran, and it all went down from there.

Mayweather will also be promoting the three-round bout through his the Money Team productions. The fightย will reportedly be televised in March from Las Vegas.

What could possibly go wrong?
