It wouldn't sit well with me. Mayweather fighting two fighters who just beat Broner. Broner is the new Berto? Gotta get through him to get to Mayweather? In the very least Maidana KO'ed Lopez and Karrass as well but Khan's previous fights were against no-hopers, and one of them just happened to almost beat Khan.
Broner is in his prime and is fast. Regardless to his lost to Maidana he kept trying to win and still showed skills. Khan hasn't done anything remotely as good as Broner since the Maidana fight.
I say pair them up
nothing stopping khan calling peterson or garcia out to come to 147 is there? or calling out thurman, alexander, guerrero? broner is barely a true 140lb-er so call the little guy with the big mouth out!
Then Make it I do not see the problem at all in making this fight, Broner is officially one of the name that was offered to him as his next oppenent so shouldent be no problem in making this bout unless Broner ducks Khan.
the officiall names offered to khan were
Guerrero, Collazo, Porter, Alexander, Broner, Peterson and Malignaggi

Broner might just run away to 140, i have this feeling he will
Which will mean Khan will fight The Ghost or Devon
easiest fight out there for khan that allows him to stay in the mayweather sweepstakes.
khan calls out another 135lb-er rather than porter (who holds a title), thurman, alexander or rematches peterson, garcia, calls out mattysse, etc. just trying to pick the easiest spot?
Peterson has yet to move up, Garcia has yet to move up
Floyd said Khan has had no wins at 147, so Khan needs a 147 win Broner, Porter and The Ghost are all reasonable opponents with 147 experience
Only problem with fighting Porter is if Khan wins he has to fight Brook, so he'd be ruled out for a fight with Floyd
The Ghost and Broner are better options, maybe even Devon, seeing as folks said Khan ducked him

Brook is a bum who ****ing gasses out and looks like losing to guys with 10 loses.
Broner is a 3 weight champ no matter what. He may have lost the title but he's still a solid fighter. Better fight than Brook who has fought no bodies

If Khan convincingly beats Broner, then he'll go from one of the least liked figures in boxing to an extremely popular one, since everyone rallies behind a guy who gives a beating on Broner - a la Maidana.
Not when the guy who beats Broner is as big an azzhole as Broner..People will just wanna see him get his azz beat next..

I don't know man. Maidana admitted Broner hurt him multiple times. He had no reason to do that. He despised Broner and was treated with no respect, so if anything I would have thought he'd say "He hits like a girl". I think Adrien certainly can hurt Khan, but will probably get hurt himself in the process.
