Broner vs Theophane April 1 on Premier Boxing Champions
Premier Boxing - February 24, 2016
Four-division world champion Adrien “The Problem” Broner (31-2, 23 KOs) defends his 140-pound world title against Ashley “The Treasure” Theophane (39-6-1, 11 KOs) Friday, April 1 on Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) on Spike from the DC Armory in Washington, D.C. with televised coverage beginning at 9 p.m. ET/PT.
At 26-years-old, Broner is one of the most accomplished, and outspoken, young stars in the sport today. After picking up world titles at 130, 135 and 147-pounds, Broner earned a belt in a fourth weight division last October when he defeated tough Russian Khabib Allakhverdiev via a stoppage in the 12th and final round. Broner has spent portions of his training camp in Washington, D.C. for several years and now he will be fighting for the first time in the nation’s capital.
“Ashley Theophane is a world class fighter and this is going to be a tough fight for me,” said Broner. “I’m very excited to fight in Washington, D.C. My following is huge in D.C., it’s my second home, and I think we’re going to give the fans what they’re looking for. I want to fight the best in the 140-pound weight division and Ashley Theophane is one of the best.”
London’s Theophane enters this fight on a six-bout winning streak and has had a long road towards his first world title opportunity. A former British world champion at 140-pounds, Theophane signed with Mayweather Promotions in 2013 and has enjoyed success stateside training out of the Mayweather Boxing Club in Las Vegas.
“I’m excited to face Adrien Broner for a super lightweight world championship,” said Theophane. “It’s been a long, hard road to get here. Thanks to Floyd Mayweather and everyone at Mayweather Promotions for their support over the last two and a half years. I get to have my career defining fight against a four-division world champion. It gets no bigger than that. I will be leaving the ring on April 1 as the new world champion.”
Tickets for the live event, which is promoted by About Billions Promotions and Mayweather Promotions in association with HeadBangers Promotions, are priced at $200, $100, $50 and $25, and are on sale Friday, February 26 at 9 a.m. ET. To purchase tickets visit www.ticketmaster.com, Ticketmaster locations or call (800) 745-3000.
“After an incredible 2015, Spike is thrilled to welcome the PBC back with a bout headlined by Adrien Broner – one of boxing’s biggest personalities out of the ring and one of the best fighters in the ring,” said Jon Slusser, Senior Vice President, Sports & Specials, Spike TV.
“The DC Armory is synonymous with championship boxing in Washington, DC” stated Erik A. Moses, Events DC senior vice president and managing director for sports and entertainment. “Events DC is proud to work with HeadBangers Promotions, About Billions Promotions and Mayweather Promotions to showcase PBC in the nation’s capitol.”
Broner boasts a 9-1 record in world title fights on his way to picking up belts in four weight divisions. The Cincinnati-native owns victories over Paulie Malignaggi, Daniel Ponce De Leon, John Molina Jr., Antonio DeMarco and Gavis Rees. Broner compiled a 300-19 amateur record under the guidance of his trainer Mike Stafford, who continues to train him throughout his pro success.
Theophane has been in the ring with many 140 and 147-pound contenders including Danny Garcia and Pablo Cesar Cano, losing by narrow split-decision to both. He started his 2015 campaign with a victory over Mahonri Montes in April and followed it up with an easy decision over Steve Upsher in September. He won his British title with a win over Lenny Daws and would go on to successfully defend against Jason Cook and Ben Murphy.

Adrien Broner to put 140-pound title on the line against Ashley Theophane on April 1
Feb 24, 2016 By Matt Jacob
If ever a boxer and a city were made for each other, it would be Adrien Broner and Washington, D.C. After all, the nation’s capital has long been home to large personalities—something with which the loquacious Broner can certainly identify.

So it is that the two will come together for the first time April 1, when Adrien Broner (31-2, 23 KOs) makes the first defense of his 140-pound crown against Ashley Theophane (39-6-1, 11 KOs) at the D.C. Armory in Washington, D.C. (Spike TV, 9 p.m. ET/PT).
“I’m very excited to fight in Washington, D.C.,” says Broner, a four-division champion who has spent portions of recent training camps in D.C. but has never competed in the city. “My following is huge in D.C., it’s my second home, and I think we’re going to give the fans what they’re looking for.”
Fighting in his native Cincinnati, Broner claimed a vacant 140-pound title on October 3 with a 12th-round TKO of Khabib Allakhverdiev. Broner controlled the fight from the outset and had a wide lead on the judges’ scorecards when he stopped Allakhverdiev with just 37 seconds remaining in the bout.
Broner’s victory over Allakhverdiev came nearly four months after he dropped a 12-round unanimous decisioin to Shawn Porter at 144 pounds on June 20. It was just the second time since turning pro in mid-2008 that Broner tasted defeat; his first loss came against Marcos Maidana in December 2013 in the first defense of the 147-pound title Broner earned six months earlier with a narrow win over Paulie Malignaggi.
Broner captured his first world title at 130 pounds in November 2011, when he scored a third-round knockout of Vicente Martin Rodriguez. He defended that crown twice before moving up to 135, where he defeated titleholder Antonio DeMarco via eighth-round TKO in November 2012.
After a successful defense against Gavin Rees, Broner jumped up two weight classes to take Malignaggi’s 147-pound crown.
While Broner is quite familiar with championship settings, Theophane most certainly is not. Despite turning pro nearly 13 years ago, the 35-year-old has never before fought for a title.
A London native who now lives in Las Vegas—where he works out of the Mayweather Boxing Club—Theophane comes into this bout riding a six-fight winning streak that spans more than two years. Most recently, he knocked off Steve Chambers by 10-round unanimous decision on September 12.
Among Theophane’s six losses, the highest profile came in February 2010, when he dropped a split decision to future two-division champion Danny Garcia. Since that loss, Theophane has gone 14-2 with a pair of six-fight winning streaks.
On April 1, he’ll be gunning for his seventh win in a row, something he hasn’t achieved since an 8-0 run from March 2006 to December 2007.
“I’m excited to face Adrien Broner for a world championship,” Theophane says. “It’s been a long, hard road to get here.
“I get to have my career-defining fight against a four-division world champion. It gets no bigger than that. I will be leaving the ring on April 1 as the new world champion.”
Says Broner: “Ashley Theophane is a world-class fighter, and this is going to be a tough fight for me. I want to fight the best in the 140-pound weight division, and Ashley Theophane is one of the best.”
