Adrien Broner posted a photo on social media today, showing off his missing teeth from his loss to Blair Cobbs last Friday night at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel in Hollywood, Florida.
Broner lost his teeth when he was dropped by a left hand from Cobbs (17-1-1, 10 KOs) in the second round of their ten-round welterweight contest on Triller PPV. AB’s appearance was like that of a soldier who had just returned from the front lines, having gone through pure hell and looking wrecked.
Fans React to Broner’s Aged Appearance
Fans remarked that the 34-year-old former four-division world champion Broner (35-5-1, 24 KOs) looked positively ancient in his uploaded photo of him revealing his missing teeth. The judges scored it 97-91, 96-93, and 96-93.
It’s unclear if Broner plans on continuing his 16-year career after the defeat, as this was his third loss in his last six fights, and it’s difficult to predict him turning it around.
Broner didn’t look in great shape for the fight, but even if he did get in great condition, he’s aged, and that’s not going to change,
“He wasn’t letting his hands go. He was just trying to beat him up, and I think that came from the disrespect of Blair’s style,” said trainer Greg Hackett to YSM Sports Media about where Adrien Broner went wrong in his loss to Blair Cobbs last Friday night.
“Everybody is saying Broner should chill. If he’s not going to dedicate himself to training, he should chill. But if he’s going to be serious about it…Broner may not be what he once was, but he’s still Broner.
“When they get done with Tank, Broner needs to go to Baltimore for two months and get busy with them, feeding off their energy and really getting into shape. But the chances of him doing that are slim because he’s made all the money he is going to make and had all the fun he is going to have.
Blair Cobbs’ Lottery Win
“Blair is like a 27-year-old kid because he hasn’t had that many fights. He just hit the lottery because he can get an opportunity against somebody,” said Hackett.
