[QUOTE="HotNewHipHop, post: 63837, member: 83"] The boxing world has been shaken up by Adrien Broner's recent announcement. It has been about a year and a half since Broner stepped in the ring for a professional bout, and he was set to go head-to-head against Omar Figueroa Jr. this Saturday (August 20). Fans have been anticipating this fight for some time, but this morning, Broner stunned fans by announcing that he was backing [URL='https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/adrien-broner-marvels-at-jake-paul-making-s690k-purse-for-ben-askren-fight-news.130527.html']out of the fight[/URL] due to his mental health concerns. Ahead of his Hard Rock match up in Florida, Broner penned a note to Instagram stating that he has been going through several personal issues that demand his attention. "Sorry to all my fans but #MentalHealth is real and I’m not about to play inside the ring," said Broner. "I’ve watched a lot of people die playing with they boxing career and that is something I won’t do just pray for me I love the sport of boxing to much to not give my all and I feel Like I came up short before because my mind wasn’t 100% there and I be dam if I make that mistake again." He added that he needed to focus on himself before trying to make others happy. "In all reality I have nothing to prove to nobody I’m a 4 time world champion in 4 different weight classes and if I never lace up a pair of gloves again I feel like it’s safe to say I will be[URL='https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/adrien-broner-has-a-message-for-fake-fans-news.153170.html'] inducted into the #BoxingHallOfFame,[/URL]" Broner added. "So I have to step back and overcome this obstacle before I go put my life on the line inside the square circle again I know I’m far from being finished with the sport SEE YALL SOON." However, Figueroa doesn't believe Broner and told [I]TMZ[/I] he thinks his opponent backed out because he wasn't prepared. "What really passe me off is that now this mf wants to use #MentalHealth as a fkn excuse," wrote Figueroa, who reportedly has been diagnosed with ADHD, depression, and more. "That I have 'a problem' w because that's BS! You don't get to cry #MentalHealth now, mf!... "You don't get to undermine mine and countless other's (sic) journey and struggles w #MentalHealth because of your undisciplined/childish dumb ass!"
