The insidious effects of alcohol abuse and gambling addiction can sabotage one’s mental health. Adrien Broner is on a journey of resurgence after being a victim of the aforementioned vices. It all went downhill for him back in 2017. Since then, he has fought six times and was victorious thrice. His critics and fans felt that the former Welterweight champion’s glory days were left behind him.
However, Broner did not want to go down the route of degeneracy. He made the necessary amends in his life by staying sober and made a comeback in the squared circle against Bill Hutchinson. Moreover, this is just the commencement of his self-improvement arc. In his Instagram story, he revealed that he is proud of his achievements but his story is far from over.
