Oh well, we really will not know the real reasons for now, maybe they just said to the organizations that AB has mental issues and can't be bothered and so he wanted to cancel the fight, so it is what it is. This could be the new norm of excuses if fighters just wake up and doesn't what to fight anymore. For sure Broner will get a lot of judgement on this one. Specially on his style and arrogant and self-important this guy is when promoting his fight.
Adrian Broner should have announced his retirement if he doesn't want to fight anymore After his loss to Manny Pacquiao he isn't the same anymore, he doesn't want to take a fight mostly, he sure is not the same Adrian Broner back then, in my opinion, or maybe I think he realised that he isn't really cut to fight Omar Figueroa Jr. anymore so he is making alibi so he can not fight him, and we can not persuade a fighter that doesn't want to fight anymore, he might have realized that he isn't on his prime anymore,
I think the Manny Pacquiao lost was the final nail in the coffin for Broner's career. But it was really Maidana (his first lost) that really haunts him because after that he was really exposed as just a regular fighter, and when he step up next against Shawn Porter he then suffered another lost and then to Mikey Garcia. So when Manny beat him, we could say that he is already on the downside of his career. and no longer that hungry, and this could start his career as a journey man. Maybe just 2 more fights and then his done for good.
