However, the 29-year-old – infamous for his brash and ignorant persona – couldn’t manage to do this without causing some kind of controversy. Broner was once seen as the ‘Next Mayweather’, but has now lost four times Broner was comprehensively beaten by eight-weight world champion Manny Pacquiao last month, but insists he won the bout and is intending to return in June. When asked by a group of reporters about a potential homecoming in Cincinnati, the American replied: “I’d love to fight in my city, but I wanna go get some of that UK money.” He then added: “I want them to pay me in euros.” 40-year-old Manny Pacquiao defeated Adrien Broner with ease Adrien Broner’s lack of currency awareness in the UK provoked a big reaction from the nation’s boxing fans, with many entertained by his comments.
