Former four-division champion Adrien Broner is considered to be one of the biggest what if’s in the sport of boxing. The 33-year-old was touted as the next Floyd Mayweather due to having a similar style to ‘Money’ Mayweather. However, his career would face setbacks mainly due to his problems outside the ring which had effects on his performance as well.

Even though Broner might not be as good as he once was, he is still a prominent figure in the boxing community. Moreover, with years of experience inside the ring, he has also made some friends and foes in the boxing world and it looks like he might be willing to risk it all for the boxers he feels are like his family.

In an Instagram Story, Broner revealed that he bet his money on Tony Harrison even though he lost his recent fight against Tim Tszyu. He added that if Harrison fought any of the Charlo brothers he would bet a million dollars on the brothers and the loser could face him. Moreover, he claimed that he loved Luis Cuba Arias but would bet his house on Erickson ‘Hammer’ Lubin if the two fought.

This was not all as he then picked Gervonta Davis to beat Ryan Garcia in their upcoming matchup, betting his last dollar on ‘Tank’ Davis. However, given the relationship between Davis and Broner, it should not be a surprise. He then picked former super-middleweight champion Caleb Plant to beat David Benavidez in their upcoming fight.

Lastly, he stated that if Errol Spence Jr. vs Terence Crawford ever took place he would pick Spence Jr. because his relationship is a little stronger with the unified welterweight champion. It looks like ‘The Problem’ has given his picks for all the major fights in boxing and also revealed what he will be willing to belt. However, it seems that he will not be making his much-awaited comeback until April.

Broner was initially supposed to face Michael Williams Jr. on February 25 making his long-awaited return. However, according to ESPN, the fight will be postponed as Williams Jr. suffered an injury during sparring and will be the third person to pull out from the fight. Broner will now seek a new opponent and will most probably make his return next month.

Broner last competed back in 2021 after securing a controversial split decision victory over Jovanie Santiago. He will now be looking to add some more value to his career which did not live up to its potential according to many. However, the 33-year-old still has a lot of time to make amends for all the time he lost due to issues outside the ring.
