Post this, Broner is unaligned with any fighter for now, but the search for an opponent is still on. This fight marked Broner’s much-anticipated return after a loss to Pacquiao a couple of years back.
Pedro Campa was a rugged opponent and could have given Broner a substantial taste of his boxing run. He was an ideal contender for ‘The Problem’ who had a lackluster run in the sport, and Campa had the ability to give him a fair bout.
Broner fans were elevated to see their favorite fighter return to action, but an unfortunate COVID positive test from Campa’s team put this battle on hold.

Who should Adrien Broner face now?
For Broner to make his way to the top again, he will have to take on some real rugged opponents. But, considering that he is returning after a long time, ‘The Problem’ should go on for opponents that help him get the feel of the ring once again.
All the divisions are highly stacked with sturdy contenders, so the 31-year-old should pick his next viable opponent wisely.
