Omar Figueroa Attacks Adrien Broner for Lying About Mental Health!


Four-division champion Adrien “The Problem” Broner (34-4-1, 24KO) pulled out of the welterweight fight with former WBC lightweight champion Omar Figueroa (28-2-1, 19KO). By his claim, mental illness was the root of the problem. However, Figueroa is not buying the mental illness excuse.

It is no secret that Broner lives a somewhat chaotic lifestyle. However, he promised a career change again and claimed he was training his ass off. Then social media was thrown into a frenzy when Broner’s announcement hit of him pulling out of the fight. All is not lost, as the fight will continue with former IBF junior welterweight champion Sergey Lipinets as a replacement.
