Cam’ron and Chad "Ochocinco" Johnson just turned a casual back-and-forth into a full-scale war, and neither of them is backing down. What started as a petty exchange on
It Is What It Is escalated into one of the messiest sports media feuds of 2025. Cam went for the throat, calling Johnson out over money, ego, and career moves. Johnson didn’t just take it—he hit back, questioning Cam’s entire narrative and making it clear that if there’s a real problem, he’s “outside.”
Cam’ron obliterates Chad Johnson, calls him a hater, questions his pockets
Cam’ron doesn’t hold back, ever. On
It Is What It Is, he ripped into Chad Johnson over an old tweet where Johnson allegedly said he was
“coming for” Cam’s spot. Cam took that personally.
According to him, he actually tried to put Johnson on, offering him a spot on the show. Johnson allegedly declined, saying everything had to go through his agent. That set Cam off.
“You’re so dumb, you can’t even speak for yourself, stupid motherf**er.”*
Then came the real dagger—Cam claimed he could’ve paid Johnson more than he’s making with Shannon Sharpe on
Nightcap. He compared it to what Mark Jackson and Michael Irvin were getting for their work with
IIWII.
“I tried to offer you more paper than you’re probably getting now,” Cam said.
“I bet you ain’t getting paid the money that Mark Jackson and Mike Irvin got paid with us. I don’t know this for a fact … but this is why you’re doing the s** you’re doing.”*
Cam also made it clear he never liked Johnson from the start.
“I don’t really fk with [him] to be totally honest with you. When we started the show, the nia was hating from the very beginning. We were doing very well, we were very successful. We didn’t even have no deal, no sponsors, no nothing. We were doing this off the muscle.”But the biggest shot? Cam accused Johnson of feeling
threatened by his success.
“Why the fk you got to take my spot? What the fk are you talking about? We had only been doing the show for three months, but that’s how much of an impact that I had that that bch a ni**a felt threatened.”Chad Johnson flips the script, denies Cam’ron’s claims, makes it personal
Johnson wasn’t about to let Cam have the last word. On
Nightcap, he fired back, claiming his
“coming for your spot” comment wasn’t disrespect—it was admiration.
“I’m saying I’m coming for your spot because I see you as the standard that is setting the bar in that specific space. You took that as an insult, which is weird to me.”Then, his energy shifted. He made one thing clear—he and Cam’ron are not even playing the same game.
“There’s a difference. In your lane, you do what you do. I’m in completely different lanes and completely different rooms from you, despite me always playing around and joking. It’s different.”But what really stood out? Johnson let Cam know he’s
not hard to find.
“Now you getting personal with the words and the talking; I post my location where I'm at every day. Everybody know where I am every single day. No matter what city I travel to, I'm outside all of the time.”Then, he took it a step further.
“If it was really an issue, or you really didn’t like me and it was a problem, I’m easy to find—especially in Miami. If I’m not mistaken ... y’all film here.”Read More: Reshuffling in the chain gang by the NFL! Who hits the first downs?
