No disrespect to either Adrien Broner or Amir Khan, but there is no way these guys were serious to begin with right? The two fighters communicated via twitter about getting the paperwork and giving fans what they want and trying to be the co-main event along with Floyd & Manny on May 2nd. Thankfully someone must have gave them a reality check. There are no two boxers on the face of this Earth worthy enough to share headlines with Floyd & Manny on what will be the biggest night in boxing history. Ali in his prime would be the only person worthy of sharing the spotlight with these two champions. Still good news for Broner and Khan fans, it does appear these two will have their own great fight on June 6th. Check the gallery!
