Video: Annoyed Broner Tells Ellerbe -'I'm No B-Side'
Jun 18, 2015 • 8:38 AM ET
Ryan Burton was front and center for the final press conference at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, for Saturday's Premier Boxing Champions card on NBC - which features Adrien "The Problem" Broner (30-1, 22 KOs) taking on "Showtime" Shawn Porter (25-1-1, 16 KOs) and Errol "The Truth" Spence Jr. (16-0, 13 KOs) facing Phil Lo Greco.
During the press conference, Mayweather Promotions CEO Leonard Ellerbe accidently announced Adrien Broner to speak the podium - out of turn. Broner jumped out of his seat, visibly annoyed, and complained that he was being treated like the B-side with Porter being allowing speak last. Floyd Mayweather Jr. started calming Broner down as Ellerbe admitted that he made a mistake and announced Broner out of turn, and then directed Porter to come up.
Coverage on NBC begins at 8:30 p.m. ET/5:30 p.m. PT.
