Rapper 50 Cent has already promised to bet $1.6million (Sh151 million) on Floyd Mayweather to beat Manny Pacquiao in Sunday's fight, but he's set to make even more money that weekend.
The 38-year-old will reportedly pocket $500,000 (Sh47.3 million) for performing at Drai's club in Las Vegas on the Friday before the fight.
It seems 50, real name Curtis James Jackson III, may be hedging his bets considering his lavish backing of Mayweather, who is currently 8/15 favourite.
If Jackson's recent quotes are anything to go by though, the rapper and boxing promoter is certain he'll see a return on his money.
He said: He said: "Champ (is) gonna smoke him. It's gonna look like it was pumped up for no reason."
