Rumours started to surface suggesting that Mayweather would be coming back for a money-spinning bout with Adrien Broner.

Ellerbe told Kevin Iole: “One million per cent false, total silliness.

“Whomever is spreading this nonsense, it’s an outright lie.”

Adrien Broner is infamous for his brash, ignorant persona

Previously, Floyd stated that he would only return for potential crossover bouts with MMA stars coming to face him in the boxing ring once again.

He won a fight of this nature against Conor McGregor in 2017 and proposed a rematch or even a bout with his UFC conqueror Khabib Nurmagomedov.

As for Broner, the man who was once boxing’s hottest prospect is now 30 years old and has not been seen in the ring since being comprehensively beaten by Manny Pacquiao 15 months ago.
