Floyd Mayweather to train Soulja Boy for Chris Brown fight
Former boxing world champion Floyd Mayweather is training rapper Soulja Boy for his three-round bout against fellow R&B star Chris Brown, set to take place in March. The rap stars' tiff started after Soulja Boy liked an Instagram photo of Brown?s former girlfriend, Karrueche Tran, and worsened after he posted a picture with Brown's 2-year-old daughter. 
What started as an Instagram row has escalated to such an extent that the greatest pound-for-pound boxer of his generation has become involved in the beef between R&B stars Chris Brown and Soulja Boy.Floyd Mayweather, who was undefeated in his 49 fights, winning world titles at super featherweight, lightweight, light welterweight, welterweight and light middleweight, is to train Soulja Boy for a three-round bout with Brown, to take place in Las Vegas in March.The dispute began on Tuesday, when Brown took exception to Soulja Boy liking an Instagram photo posted by Brown?s former girlfriend, Karrueche Tran. The two stars began posting threatening Instagram videos directed at each other, as well as mocking tweets. Soon, Brown challenged Soulja Boy to a fight, and his offer was accepted.Though Soulja Boy posted a remorseful video in which he said he hoped to work with Brown, he also tweeted a message involving Brown?s infant daughter, to which Brown responded furiously in a video, saying: ?We gonna set up this fight, it?s gonna be professional, you can do all of that. But one thing you gotta stop doing my nigga, I?m gonna be real with you: stop bringing my daughter into this my nigga. Stop saying shit about my fucking daughter.? The fight became a reality on Thursday, when Mayweather ? who is now a boxing promoter ? posted an image on his Instagram plugging the fight as ?Mayweather Promotions Presents ? celebrity boxing live on pay-per-view?.
