Adrien Broner wrote a lengthy apology to ten former friends, including Floyd Mayweather, in a note that caused worry to many fans.
Broner’s mental state has been under question by himself the most but by others on the outside looking in. “The Problem” has been dealing with many of his namesakes for the past few years, causing him to fight only four times in six years despite being just 33.
Now, after making a triumphant return to the ring in April, Broner continues his battle with alcoholism and narcotic addictions.
Among other vices Broner admits to having are gambling troubles and a penchant for too many women.
As his next fight date moves closer, the Cincinnati man took the opportunity to beg forgiveness from several of his ex-pals.
Taking to social media, Broner issued a 400-word grovel to many of his old buddies, including Mayweather and Gervonta Davis.
