WBA International Light Welterweight Champion Adrien Broner was recently approached by Jay Z's Roc Nation Sports team about signing with the agency. He turned the offer down.
Broner felt disrespected by the money discussed and the fact that Jay never personally reached out to him.
"The type of offers I turn down. Fuck Jay Z. Shit real out here," Broner wrote on his Facebook page. "What the fuck is 40 million for five years? Somebody go tell Jay Z to suck my dick with a elephant tongue. WE GOOOOOOD!!!"
During an interview with TMZ Sports, Broner elaborated further.
"The capacity of the offer was $40 million for five years and that's just bullshit," he told TMZ Sports. "At the end of the day I felt disrespected. If you gonna come to me and tell me I'm gonna fight two times a year, getting $8 million a year for five years straight you got me fucked up. I'm not old. I'm scheduled to fight four times this year. Stop sending your workers to talk to me. I'm a boss and bosses talk to bosses."
The 25-year old fighter wasn't done. When asked whether getting one step closer to Rihanna would be an incentive to sign with RNS he offered a harsh reply.
"Man, fuck Rihanna. No disrespect," Broner said. "Rihanna ain't gonna make me no dollars. At the end of the day, she gon' give me some pussy and that's it."
**UPDATE** January 12
Broner has taken some time to reflect on his disrespectful language aimed at Jay Z and Rihanna and now regrets it. He told TMZ Sports that a friend reached out to him and made him see that what he said was wrong. He's issued an apology to both.
"You never invite a man to another man's private parts. That's just ridiculous," Broner told TMZ Sports. "I was caught up in the moment and I wanna apologize to Jay for that. I'm a man at the end of the day and I'm wrong. And I can admit when I'm wrong. I never should have said [fuck] Rihanna. I just wanna say I'm wrong to the public, I'm sorry. If Jay wanna talk to me, you can get in touch with me and we'll talk. I just had to get it off my chest."
