Keeping this in mind, Broner openly challenged him on social media. The 33-year-old is out of the ring for more than a year. His last fight was in February 2021. Earlier this year, he was set to return against Omar Figueroa Jr. However, this fight could not reach fruition because he pulled out of the event due to mental health issues.
