LOS ANGELES : Legendary boxing promoter Don King said former four-division champion Adrien Broner's desire to return to the pinnacle of the sport reminds him of the fire that burned inside all-time great Muhammad Ali.
The American last held a title in 2016 and has only fought sporadically since, but his comeback attempt managed to draw the 91-year-old King back to the sport. "There's no such thing as failure, it's just a setback. There's no drowning in your own tears, as Ray Charles would say. You've got to go back out there and win, you've got to kick ass! That's what Ali taught me about boxing, and he was my first prize fighter."
Nicknamed"The Problem," Broner has not fought since his victory in February 2021 over Omar Figueroa and missed one fight due to mental health issues and another when a series of opponents dropped out.
