Adrien Broner is back in the Pound for Pound reckoning for the first time since January 2019 after a comeback victory under new promoter Don King.
A combination of boxers without significant achievements in the modern day and Broner’s four-weight achievements pushed the American to 49 on the WBN list.
Broner was dropped after losing to Manny Pacquiao because he failed to win three bouts running. “The Problem” now returns following a dominating decision over Bill Hutchinson.
After linking up with former Mike Tyson handler King, Broner is being touted as a possible opponent for Regis Prograis or Ryan Garcia.
Of the two, only Prograis would allow Broner to improve his current P4P standing.
