"I'm not only a friend of the boxers, but I'm also a friend of the sport. This is my favorite sport. I believe this is the sport of gladiators. This is where men, with ambition and sheer will stand-alone.

"Me and my friend Adrien Broner, will be doing some exciting things in 2016. I'm here to let everyone know on behalf of the hip-hop community, that we're supporting this fight. April 1, 'The Boss' will be in the building."
