Boxing: The Demise of Adrien Broner

What’s next for Adrien Broner?

That is a difficult question for a 25-year-old who started his career with a great deal of promise. As he walked back to his corner after a baffling performance against cross-state rival Shawn Porter on Saturday in Las Vegas, Broner had a look of relative indifference in his eyes. It was either that or a bizarre case of disillusion. He lost handily to Porter, but it was why he lost that gives rise to concern. Broner was not out-skilled or outclassed; he was simply outworked by a man who wanted it more.
