Comments Thread For: Broner Blasts Hearn's Three-Fight, $6.75M Offer as 'Slave Deal'

[Shadoww702]

hearns gonna find it hard to crack this market, a lot of these fighters are deluded divas. this type of stuff is private negotiation, got broner and charlo talking about it on twitter ffs. show some class and negotiate in private, the mans making you a business offer but i guess its more important to impress some idiots on twitter than act like a man and politely decline. and for the record thats a good deal for someone whos becoming a whipping boy for the top fighters and is firmly in the B level category. you went into your shell against a damn lightweight i dont wanna bring race into it but ive got a funny feeling some of these fighters (and fans) are so hostile to hearn cause hes not black, its not a normal reaction from broner and charlo to someone whos making you a genuine offer. ive never known such a hostile reaction to someone whos trying to bring some interest into the sport

Well said! He could of been polite and said TY let me think about it. Then he could of used that as a bargaining chip....

[Zaroku]

I never complained about that

I actually applaud that cuz fighters should be getting paid.







crazy mang.... two offers one from roc and now hearn and he shiiits it smh...

well see how much he makes in his next couple of fights

He’s not even a gate keeper at this point. Lots of babies momma’s will be mad at broner for high siding, and big pimping money he won’t have.

I think Paulie Malignaggi should try to get a rematch at this point. He can probably take broner now!

I think it’s funny that AB gets serious or pretends to get serious about boxing before he takes his losses. He dreams of being a champ again, but while he was dreaming, better fighters like Mikey G are barring his path. He should have taken the 40 million. Instead of trying to be Floyd Jr. Jr.

I don’t see his dad, Manteca-man brushing his hair no more.....

He once appeared to have the skills, but that was in the PMM (pre Marcos Maidana) days.

Then chino literally and figuratively speaking beat the dog ****s outta broner. I’m LMAO! What a clown.

Most delusional fighter in the sport right now. He doesn't want the deal because it likely didn't include a clause that allowed him to choose his own opponents. This is a guy who turned down a career high payday of $4M to fight Pac, so it doesn't surprise me that Mr. About Billions is balking at an almost $7M deal. He can stay with his current puppet-master Al Haymon who is paying him slave wages.

the likely scenario would be he would be fed two easy fights(whether he chose them or not they were/are likely to be ones which he is favored by a good margin) and then be fed to khan.....thats really the only way hearn is making any real money here is to set up khan/broner in the UK and make khan look like a worldbeater again

[filup79]

What about Mikey Garcia? Since he never signed with Haymon and has worked with him on a fight by fight basis. Do you see UFC or Hearn blowing him away with an offer he can't refuse?

Mikey already laughed at Hearn's first offer saying he makes more than that. Hearn was going off Mikey's reported purses and thought he was offering more not knowing Mikey earns more per fight.

Broner has turned down massive sums thus far....

$40 mil Rocnation, $6.75 mil Hearn and $4-6 mil offer to fight Pac. The reason for turning down these deals is because he's required to face stiff competition and he's really not in the sport to do that although Broner has the talent he doesn't have that level of hunger anymore. Broner is content in making high six figure sometimes 7 figure paydays and selecting who he wants to fight and when he feels like fighting. That's the freedom of being your own boss so cant knock him because we're not the ones fighting and boxing is a cruel sport.

[Bad_Guy]

This guy is a bum who does not deserve to be paid by anyone.

Khan

Brook

Crawford

[Reverb]

Ishe Smith called Broner just as he is.

[Scipio2009]

how is that a slave deal, that dude just went life and death and got away with a gift decision draw agaisnt jessie vargas ffs, and before that he clearly lost to granados a journeyman, he should have like 5-6 losses already and be willing to sell his arse for 2 mill paydays by now.

For whatever reason, Adrien Broner still seems to think that he's on the cusp of being the next Floyd Mayweather. Odd, but that's the only thing that makes sense.

He can't get down to 140 (even there, he doesn't beat Mikey Garcia, he doesn't beat Regis Prograis, and I think he'd still have heavy issues with another 4-6 fighters at the weight. Broner as undisputed champion at 140lbs might've been worth money) and he gets beat by Spence/Thurman/Garcia/Crawford pretty clear, I don't think he beats Porter in a rematch, and I doubt he gets by Horn or Ugas either, and this is without counting every 147.

I guess he truly values being his own boss, because I currently can't see him winning three fights in a row at top level, especially with Kevin Cunningham on his neck only really pushing him to put forward a hard effort for maybe 8 rounds.
