Benzino has made the wild claim that he could beat 50 Cent in a boxing match.
Appearing on the We In Miami podcast, the controversial Hip Hop personality was asked if he could take 50 in the ring given the size difference between the two.

“Being big don’t mean nothing in boxing, history has shown us that,” Zino replied. “50’s been shot in the face before so that counts. He had to get reconstructive surgery; he’s not gonna be able to take any old punch in his face.”
He added: “If we were to box in a boxing match and I were to train for a couple months, hell yeah I could box 50. I’m gonna pick me every time.”
50 Cent has yet to respond.
Benzino has been firing off the fighting talk in recent weeks, previously challenging longtime rival Eminem and Joe Budden to boxing matches.
Speaking on Instagram Live earlier this month, the former Almighty RSO rapper claimed he would “demolish” both men in the ring.

“50 [Cent] will fight Stevie J then I’ll fight Eminem. And then it would be the biggest pay-per-view celebrity boxing match in the history of the world,” he said, referencing the recent friction between the G-Unit boss and former Bad Boy producer.
“Sleeves and 50. Me and Eminem. It would be crazy. Put us on the undercard of Jake Paul and Mike Tyson […] I’ll knock Eminem out, 30 seconds into the round. I would demolish him. I would beat the shit out of Eminem in a boxing match. There’s no question about it.
After a fan brought up Budden’s name, he added: “I would love to fight Joe Budden. I’ll fight Joe Budden for free. I’ll do that for charity. I’ll break Joe Budden’s jaw for charity.”

“Joe says he doesn’t wanna fight me. Joe ran his mouth and he backed out the fight,” he said, referencing disparaging comments Budden made about him on his self-titled podcast. “He must have been thinking about that straw that he was going to be sipping out of. Didn’t wanna get in the ring. So that’s it for that.”
