Canelo Alvarez, 50 Cent and
boxer
James Kirkland
Boxer, Yuriorkis Gamboa, has sued to leave SMS boxing
promotions, owned by bankrupt rapper, 50 Cent. A few months ago,
boxer James Kirkland, also sued to get out of his contract with
the failed company. Gamboa states in a court filing that 50
Cent, real name, Curtis Jackson, has failed to secure the
promised number of fights per year. This means Gamboa is not
earning much money and valuable, important years of his boxing
career and youth are being wasted at SMS.
50 Cent
The Judiciary Report has warned for years
via
articles that entertainers and athletes should get
the right team, seeking contractually retained representatives,
who have great contacts and a vast knowledge of business. You
have to make the most of your opportunities in sports while you
are young, as it will set the most favorable foundation for your
growth. While being in your 30s is not considered old, in sports
it is deemed so. Mayweather and Pacquiao, performing in top
condition and making huge sums of money in their late thirties
is not the norm in sports. They are the exception to the rule.
Yuriorkis Gamboa
Maximize your career in sports while you are young and fit.
Most athletes will tell you, when you hit 30, your body will
change regarding athleticism. You start to feel aches and pains
more after training. The body also starts to slow down
athletically. You can't waste years of your career with someone
who does not know what they are doing, diddling around trying to
figure things out or making it up as they go along (i.e. Jay Z's
Roc Nation Sports/Boxing and 50 Cent's SMS). You need sharp,
intelligent, experienced businesspeople with connections, who
can get you where you need to be as quickly as possible, then
you can build on your success at a greater rate.

FAILED ME Lemme Outta My Damn Contract
9/30/2015 2:26 PM PDT- Another huge blow to 50 Cent's boxing
promotion company -- because the organization's biggest boxing
star, Yuriorkis Gamboa, officially wants out ... TMZ Sports has
learned. The former WBA and IBF featherweight champ says he's
had issues with SMS Promotions for months ... claiming the
company was contractually obligated to deliver 3 fights per year
ever since he came on board in 2012 ... but SMS has FAILED
miserably.
In fact, Gamboa only fought once in 2013, twice in 2014 ...
and has no fights in 2015. It's all outlined in court docs filed
by Gamboa in Connecticut and obtained by TMZ Sports ...in which
Gamboa says his team contacted SMS to negotiate the termination

let Gamboa know if they're gonna let him go ... or try to
deliver the fights...
