Find out what happening with Adrien Broner on the flip…
CelebNSports247.com has learned that Adrien Broner failed to make the 140-pound weight. Luckily, the fight will go on, but there are some major consequences.
ESPN reports:
Broner was 140.4 pounds. He had two hours to lose the extra 0.4 pounds, but he never returned to the scale in an attempt to make weight. The fight will still go on with Theophane able to win the vacant title. If Broner wins, the title will remain vacant.
In order for the fight to go forward, the Broner and Theophane camps made a deal under which Broner will have to pay Theophane a portion of his purse. Mayweather Promotions CEO Leonard Ellerbe, Theophane’s promoter, said they made a deal, but he declined to disclose the terms. Multiple sources told ESPN.com that Broner would pay Theophane $50,000.
Meanwhile, Deadspin reports, Adrien Broner, who is a Dick, Misses Weight, Stripped Of Junior Welterweight Title!
The circumstances surrounding the failure of Broner, a dick, to make weight are bizarre. ESPN reports that he weighed in at 140.4 pounds, 0.4 pounds over the division limit. He had two hours to get down to weight. That’s a trivial task for any fighting sport athlete; these people can cut freakish amounts of weight in short time periods when necessary. But Broner, a dick, never returned to weigh in.
His trainer framed the issue as dickhead-ass Broner not wanting to “abuse his body” by losing a trivial amount of weight.
That is a hefty price to try and save face after this blunder. After the swarm of out of the ring issues, the future doesn’t look promising for Broner. Even his team is calling him a dickhead.
Not many people like Adrien Broner these days.
