PBC on Spike: No Problems for Adrien Broner Against Ashley Theophane

On a cold January night in Cincinnati, Adrien Broner is accused of beating a man unconscious outside of a bowling alley, then allegedly taking money from the man’s pocket after losing a pile of cash at a high-stakes game. A week ago the incident was reported publicly, when it was discovered Cincinnati police had a warrant out for Broner’s arrest on felony assault and aggravated robbery charges.

“The Problem” had more problems when he came in .4 pounds over on Thursday for his IBF super lightweight title defense against Ashley Theophane at the DC Armory, televised on Spike TV Friday night—and consequently lost the IBF belt on the scale.
