He’s a fighter, not a reader.
Power 105 disc jockey Charlamagne Tha God played a humiliating recording on the air Friday morning of boxing champ Floyd Mayweather Jr. struggling to read text the station planned to use in later broadcasts.
The feisty fighter with a 46-0 record sounds as if he’s met his match trying to read the “drop,” used in between on-air segments.
“I’m Floyd Mayweather,” he says, before stumbling through the rest of the promo that’s supposed to be about 10 seconds.
The other DJs on Power 105’s “The Breakfast Club” acted as if they were reluctant to embarrass
ERIC JAMISON/APTongue twister: Mayweather struggled for over one minute to read the excerpt supposed to last about 10 seconds.
“Shut the hell up! I don’t give a damn!” said Charlamagne, ignoring his fellow DJs concern.
Twitter immediately exploded with mockery of Mayweather.
The uppercut of audio was prompted by rapper 50 Cent’s harsh mockery of Mayweather Thursday on Instagram.
JORDAN STRAUSS/JORDAN STRAUSS/INVISION/APPower 105 DJs and rapper 50 Cent have both called out boxer Floyd Mayweather as a poor reader.
50 Cent lampooned the viral ALS challenge, saying he’d donate $750,000 to a charity of Mayweather’s choice if he could read just one page of “Harry Potter.”
“F--- the bucket of ice!” 50 Cent said.
50 followed up that video with a second, claiming that Jimmy Kimmel pledged to broadcast Mayweather reading out loud, and that the challenge would be a little easier.
