Four-Division champ Adrien Broner calls out Nate Diaz for boxing showdown

Adrien Broner wants a boxing showdown with former UFC Star Nate Diaz. Broner revealed the same on his Instagram page last day and even shared a mock up poster featuring himself and Nate.

“Nate Diaz you coming over to boxing I will give yo ass everything you looking for #LETSGETIT” Broner wrote on his Instagram page last day.

Broner, who holds a professional boxing record of 34-4-1 to his name has held multiple titles across four different weight classes. He amassed the record over a timespan of more than 14 years but has been on a slow run lately. He is 1-2-1 in the past five years and had fought at 146 pounds in his last fight.

Interestingly, he had withdrawn from his last fight citing Mental Health and gave the following message as the reason for his withdrawal.

“Sorry to all my fans but #MentalHealth is real and I’m not about to play inside the ring. 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 percent there and I be dam if I make that mistake again. I need to make some changes for the better instead of worrying about other people feelings and pleasing them when In all reality I have nothing to prove to nobody. I’m a four-time world champion in four 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 inducted into the Boxing Hall Of Fame. 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 sportSEE YALL SOON,” he wrote.
