Chris Brown vs. Soulja Boy Beef: Everything We Know About Their Boxing Match

Following days of back-and-forth feuding on social media, Chris Brown and Soulja Boy are taking their beef into the boxing ring. After Soulja Boy started using Brown’s ex-girlfriend, Karrueche Tran, and Brown’s daughter on social media to taunt him, the two have agreed to settle their problems by fighting.

Backed by 50 Cent and Floyd Mayweather Jr., the celebrity boxing match is supposed to be a three-round fight that will occur in March with proceeds going to charity. While details of the fight are still scarce, here’s everything we know so far.

The Fight Won’t Take Place In The United States

While the two were hoping to have their bout take place in Las Vegas, rules and regulations for the city would make it impossible, reports TMZ. Instead, sources for the website say the fight will have to take place over seas with Dubai being the first choice for the pay-per-view match.

Mike Tyson And Floyd Mayweather Jr. Will Train The Artists

Chris Brown and Soulja Boy will have two of the greatest boxers ever in their corners when they meet. Tyson took to Instagram to reveal he will give his support to Brown while Mayweather Jr. will be training the “Crank Dat” rapper.

50 Cent Is Responsible For Hyping The Fight

If you’re a fan of this fight happening, you can thank 50 Cent. Never one to shy away from a feud, 50 Cent took to social media to egg on Soulja Boy, saying, “Tell Soulja I said stop apologizing. Get the Draco out build up the hype for the fight.” 50 Cent then got in touch with Mayweather Jr. to make the fight happen.

Adrien Broner Was Involved

Before Mayweather Jr. stepped in, boxer Adrien Broner was tasked with promoting the fight. Unfortunately for Broner, he has a fight coming up that Mayweather would rather he focuses on. “AB has a fight coming up soon. I want Adrien Broner to do right now is focus on the task that’s in front of him,” said Mayweather Jr.
