Love him or hate him, Adrien Broner is here to stay. Adrien ?The Problem? Broner 24-0 with 20 knockouts is currently setting his sights on becoming boxing?s next superstar. Flashy, that?s putting it lightly,boisterous, yes when he chooses to be. Self-assertive is his middle name. What out weighs all the negativity from his critics is the fact that Adrien is a determined fighter with punching power and has a natural talent who loves to entertain his fans. Adrien stills needs to prove he can handle the ?big boys? at 135 or 140. He has youth and skill on his side, but it?s still to early to say if ?The Problem? is more fact or fiction. You can be sure the boxing world is taking notice every time Adrien steps into the squared circle. Also on the call was Andrew Williams.
