WBA junior welterweight champion Adrien Broner makes it clear that there is no animosity between him and close friend, Floyd Mayweather Jr.
The two fighters were trading words, publicly, in the last few weeks. Mayweather became upset after Broner said "F*** The Money Team [TMT]" during an interview. TMT is Mayweather's personal clothing brand and it’s also the name he uses for his entourage of friends.
Members of TMT were making negative comments about Broner, who responded back with his F-bomb statement. Mayweather then blasted Broner in an interview, and Broner verbally hit back with a Youtube video.
Cooler heads have come together.
The two boxers were side by side on Sunday during the Watson Family’s charity basketball game in California.
"Me and Floyd ain't beefing. Everybody thinks we're beefing. He's still actually one of my mentors and, you know....everybody should know that family sometimes get into it with each other. But at the end of the day I still love him, he still love me and I still got this support. Just know, no matter what me and Floyd will always be business partners," Broner said.
Broner is slated to face one of Mayweather's fighter, Ashley Theophane, in February.
"One of the youngest to ever do it, four world titles in four weight divisions. I'm happy with what I've done, but there is still more for me to do. I'm just working hard and I'll see you in February," Broner said.
