Adrien Broner (31-2, 23 KOs) failed to make weight earlier today

Adrien Broner (31-2, 23 KOs) failed to make weight earlier today at his weigh-in for his fight against Ashley Theophane (39-6-1, 11 KOs) for their fight on Friday night on Premier Boxing Champions on Spike TV at the DC Armory in Washington, DC. Broner weighed in only a half-pound over the light welterweight limit at 140.4., but he chose not to go back and take the weight off. His WBA title has now been stripped from him. Theophane will have the chance to win the belt. Broner will be paying Theophane an extra $50,000 for being 0.4 pounds over the 140lb weight limit. That’s good money for Theophane, who hasn’t made the huge money during his career. #BronerTheophane #Mayweather #Laceupboxing by laceupboxing
