Curtis appeared on ESPN’s First Take as today’s special guest and joined the debate desk with Skip Bayless. He spoke on his relationship with Floyd Mayweather and revealed that Mayweather ducked Pacman. Fif also spoke on what boxing could learn from the MMA and his upcoming album, Street King Immortal. UPDATE: Curtis also sat down with ESPN for an off-air interview when he spoke on joining Kendrick Lamar on stage in NYC, his upcoming album Street Immortal, the possibility of a (original) G-Unit reunion and more. Take a look at some quotes after the jump.

And then you roll into New York to jump on stage and sing with Kendrick Lamar.
Hey, I’m active. I’m moving around. For me, it’s all about getting back in motion. I’m getting my feet back into what got me here: music.

How is the latest CD, “Street King Immortal,” coming along? I know you’re still working on it.
At that show with Kendrick, I performed two songs — “We Up” and “Major Distribution.” “We Up” likely will be on my next CD. I’m going to hit the tour after that. Music is the reason I’ve been able to be a part of this brand extension. I turned down some film projects to open time to hit the road. It’s like hitting the restart button.

What about a reunion of G-Unit?
The original G-Unit, maybe. We might do something. I’ll be honest with you. Some of these new artists on the label I don’t think are working as hard as they could. I don’t know how hard they want to work or how much they want it. I could see the original coming back together though.
