On August 20, former world champion in four categories, American Adrien Broner (34-4-1, 24 KOs) will enter the ring for the first time since February last year to fight compatriot Omar Figueroa (28-2-1, 19 KOs) for the title of champion in version of WBC Silver in super lightweight (up to 63.5 kg).
Shortly before the comeback, Adrian’s thoughts are directed in a completely different direction. He dreams of holding an exhibition fight with Floyd Mayweather Jr., making a tidy sum and completely forgetting about boxing as a means of earning money.
“I’m like a real nigga… Long story short, if I was Floyd and he was me, he wouldn’t even have to ever fight again because there’s this exhibition shit. And if I were him, I would say to me, my little brother, “Yo, little bro, let’s fuck 10 rounds, get $100 with a f*cking million, and we will never have to do this again. I have already received such grannies, and now it’s time for you to get what you deserve. And you won’t have to fight anymore,” Broner fantasizes.
“But I don’t know if he wants me to have that kind of money,” Adrian seemed to think for once. – I don’t even know why … I just wonder: why not stir it up? It’s so simple. Spit once. The biggest money in my career. And I don’t care if this is a real fight or fairground fun. 10 rounds that the whole world will watch. And we are like that – we went out, worked, hugged and drove off with the babosiks. But this is my opinion. And what Floyd feels, I have no idea.
Broner also said that if Mayweather approached him with such an offer now, he would shamelessly refuse the fight with Figueroa.
Note that Adrian has not boxed in super lightweight since 2017. However, just a few months ago he was seen in a wheelchair.
