I honestly believe his friendship with Floyd has partly derailed his career. Yes adrien has made many many mistakes himself but i believe him being friends with floyd made him want to emulate floyd way too much. I also cant blame Adrien for being salty that floyd wanted him to fight Theophane. Seems to me Floyd has tried to use him for the benefit of his team in the past. Adrien would be a much bigger fighter had he stayed away from that friendship
Lets be honest if he wasn't for him being friends with Floyd he wouldn't have had that much light on him in the first place
so he really owes his career to floyd and al haymon
so in that instance him being friends Floyd hindered his career, because he reached a level of fame in sport without paying dues
which is why he wasn't ready to step up to the plate against maidana, a fight tailored for him to win and set him up to be a ppv star which he has failed to become and might never be, yet is still making a lot of money
